Biden's flatfooted interventionism on parade (again)--Russians bully provocative US drone, US response: "We crashed it into the Black Sea." (Do I hear a raucous laugh somewhere?)
Posted by bubah1mau 2 years, 1 month ago to Technology
Instead of L. Graham's "Let's shoot down some Russian planes," how about enough armed escorts for drones so that Russians won't dump on the drone? But is that drone mission truly indispensable enough to warrant the fuss?
The point is, don't provoke a fight you can't profitably finish.
(There's no military or defense category here.)

No sneaking necessary. This isn't 1945. Todays weapons are thousands X more powerful (50 > 100 MT) , smaller, with greater speed, accuracy and delivery capability.
A Tsar device dropped on DC will turn to glass, a 50 mile radius, a fallout zone stretching into Newfoundland.
When/if we have retaliatory capability, the planet's surface will be uninhabitable for ~100 years, give or take a few decades.
All for a 500 year-old regional conflict we have no stake in. (other than purely illegal activities.)
Practically speaking, neither of those is very effective against troops. Those weapons rely on a high concentration of people in a given area and the troops were just too spread out.
Buy all the Russian oil we can get at $48.;^)
the Germans could have put nerve gas on them....
or germs
or radioactive materials
Hundreds of American Oligarchs are using Ukraine to launder their monies of nefarious origin. Drugs, guns, sex slaves, bio-weapons, kick-backs, access (for sure)....
For this, our illegitimate commander-in-thief is giving away money (we don't have) and armaments that only serve to provoke an aggrieved party (The violation of the Minsk Agreement) to a real Neo-Nazi regime.
I live within eye-sight of two major military targets (should it come to that).
I won't have the privilege of dying of radiation poisoning, I will be vaporized. Maybe that's the better way to go?
The Buy Dumb Crime Family and all his crony fellow thieves: Soros, Clinton, Romney, Kerry are destroying our country, our republic, our economy (take the rest of the world with it)
The US dollar as a world currency has been intentionally forfeited: Saudi Arabia is selling oil in Yuan. The Russian are transferring their oil to secondary tankers at sea. We are almost certainly using some Russian oil. The Russians are selling their oil at $48/barrel! You bet your sweet Bippy every oil man on the planet are conniving some way to get their paws on this liquid gold. There is no way to know when the tanker comes to port the origin of that oil. The US Petro dollar is dead as a door-nail. When the world comes to face that reality, this country will undergo a fundamental shift... right into the crapper. My personal belief this is all being done on purpose... by foreign bank. You know who.
Like everything that demented old goat touches, the unintended (or not) consequences always hurt We The People and enrich the Looters. Every time.
Ayn Rand: Did you know how accurate you would be? I am sure it was never your intention that your novel would evolve from a Warning to a Playbook.
Ayn Rand's book was relentlessly attacked from day one. Why? Letting the cat out of the bag was a mortal sin, even back in the 1950's

Do you TRUST the US Military? /a peace treaty? That would be very Qood Qptics
Do you TRUST the Chain Of Command? ⬅️ Devolution?*
Have FAITH - WE ARE IN CONTROL.

They were too small and short range to be effective bombers.
Eventually the Luftwaffe regained control and switched production to fighters, but it was too little too late.

The US hasn't finished any fight since WW2, except by retreat.
Like many other parts of the English language, the feds have redefined "Mission Accomplished."

#1 target: London.
#2 target: Washington DC
Neither of which are actually part of their respective nations. Like the Vatican, they are sovereign entities. Belonging only to themselves.
It might be important to know our largest device is "Castle Bravo" 15MT
The "Tsar" Device is 50MT That was as of 1963.
In Janes Defense Weekly, it was reported the Russians have effectively doubled that yield with a method called "salting" i.e. adding cobalt salts. Yield 100MT
100MT will vaporize a 50 mile circle. IF DC was struck, Radioactive Fallout will travel all the way to Newfoundland. DC would cease to exist.
The Russians perfected the Hypersonic missile ten years ago and gave the Chinese the technology five years ago. We successfully deployed our first such device only two years ago.
A Russian sub 200 miles off our coast can strike the mainland with a hypersonic missile in about two minutes.
How good are our missiles? After the Space Shuttle was retired, the Russians flew all the missions to the space station.
When Buy-Dumb stuck his nose where it didn't belong and boycotted the Russians (funny, I don't remember getting a say it that) The Russians government said the people in the space station were on their own.
After it soon became clear no one has the capability the Russians have (not even close) the world had no choice but to come begging to get their crews home safely, which of course the Russians did. They made their point.
They have technology that we don't.
Our Criminal Government might want to keep that fact in the front of their minds, instead of all this focus on hiding their ill-gotten-booty.
Can Buy-Done be this stupid?
Or is he intentionally getting us into another endless war?
This time it isn't some third world shite-whole. It is the country with the most and largest nuclear bombs in the world, and the largest rockets to boot.
ButtDone has a better chance of seeing angles fly out his backside than winning any type of conflict with Russia. China is backing him. BRICS is backing him.
It won't be long before the majority of the world will picks the their side.
I'm no fan of Putin, but this is a regional conflict we have no business in.
In 2014 The CIA did overthrow the duly elected Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych.
How would we like Russia overthrowing our President?
Some might argue this is exactly what happened here in the 2020 election with Chinese interference.
I don't know about you, but I don't see the value of dying in a nuclear holocaust in a needless conflict over the most corrupt country in the world.
If you are wondering why such stupidity is going down: ask your self why is John Kerry. Mit Romney. Nancy Pelosi and TraitorJoe Buy-Done Sons all have million do-nothing dollar jobs in Ukraine.
Now you know why they are willing to kill the entire world over a 500-year-old regional conflict.... To save their ill-gotten-money.
I don't think they actually give a rats backside about the Russian Speaking Ukrainian people, The Ukrainian government has big-time dirt on our criminal government.
One Nation Under Blackmail. Witney Webb got that one right on the bullseye.
It's funny though. For all the terror they caused, the V1's weren't a very accurate or reliable weapon. If Hitler had instead spent those R&D resources on jet fighters (which they had late in the war) or heavy bombers (which were the downfall of the German industrial machine), things may have gone very differently. (Just play Axis & Allies to find out...)
