Summary
President Biden recently authorized Ukraine to use longer-range U.S. missiles to strike inside Russia, marking a small but overdue escalation in the conflict.
This decision aims to disrupt Russia’s military operations and bolster Ukraine’s position, especially with the potential Trump administration favoring pro-Russian policies.
Russia’s retaliatory missile strike on Ukraine, though deadly, represents more of the same tactics.
Analysts argue Biden’s earlier caution was excessive, and calling Russia’s nuclear bluffs is strategically necessary to counter further extortion.

Biden isn’t escalating the war, he is slow-walking the aid. Too much to die, too little to live, as the Ukrainians say. If you give Russia 9 months to pull critical assests out of range and only allow strikes deep into Russia after a whole nother nations enters the war on the side of Russia, you can’t frame that as escalatory, no matter how much Putin bitches and moans.
Hmmm. My idea of the process is a little different. Embedded CIA reports to the DOD on daily to and fro of the war. What the Ukrainians needed yesterday isn’t necessarily what they will need tomorrow. Wars evolve. The DOD takes this information and projects future needs leading to a budget recommendation to Congress. Congress creates a budget bill and passes it. Johnson sitting on that bill, BTW, put Ukraine behind the 8 ball. Biden uses that allocation to buy weapons per the DOD recommendations. Rules placed on weapons use, such as not using US missiles on Russian ground, are meant to stop escalation into NATO entering into the conflict. In fact when that rule ochanged there was an escalation, but not involving NATO, yet.
Thank goodness that lunatic will end up locked away in a nursing home before causing any more havoc
You really had to make an alt account for your pathetic trolling?
Whatever you say, but Trump is the president now
The right thing, done far too late.
This decision is leading to another 90K NK troops and possible Yemen might send troops as well. The perpetual agitation of escalation cant be anymore clear. Yeah Russia deserves this but in no way is this not escalation.
Ukraine is defending themselves. Russia is the one escalating and has been since the invasion.
No one is arguing that. What Biden stupid ass did before he leaves office is the same he has done since the war started. Escalation!

You’re arguing that now, lol.
And you’re blaming Biden for Russia invading Ukraine?
I see reading comprehension is not your thing!
Lol.

So this isn’t you implying it’s Biden’s fault?
Biden has done nothing but escalate the conflict I never said he started it. Biden could have played a critical role by saving Ukranians and de escalating the war. Russian is to blame for starting it and I blame the US for escalating it these past 2 years. What Stupid ass Biden did was bring more death to Ukranians!
Ah, so you’re one of the dumbasses that believe Ukraine should concede the land Russia has gained in the name of “peace.” Yeah, fuck you. You’ve drank the Russian kool-aid.
Meanwhile, several thousand miles to the south…
