    This is missing the important nuance, that the allies just didn’t want certain weapons to be used on russian homeland. AFAIK it was always okay for Ukraine to use other weapons (eg. their own drones), which they did successfully, many times.

    I suspect the allies didn’t want russia to be forced to develop better countermeasures against western weapon systems or didn’t want pics of German tanks on their way to moscow again. It could cause a lot of trouble for everyone.

        Forget german tanks making way to moscow by itself, I’m now shitting myself thinking of the ramifications of the giant-ass hole Israel’d have blown through the caucuses to be beelining it over land!

        The Jewish Homeland argument has gone full irredentism and now we’ve got a revived Khazar Khaganate!

    Yeah tbh the /c/NCD here doesn’t really do the Israel memes because they’re not really the good guys.

    I seriously don’t get what NCD is all about. What’s the theme there? No defense for what exactly?

        Defence often being a euphemism for the military.

        “Department of Defence” “Defence Spending” etc. For countries that use their military chiefly for offensive operations, the euphemism almost sounds Orwellesque. “Department of Peace” “Department of Truth”…

      It’s like shitposting about stupid military stuff to cope with the morbid waste. Don’t tell them I said that, they hate being credible serious

    Once they finish each other off in the east we can get the eugenics wars over with. Then finally, peaceful space exploration!
