Vietnam, Korea, Libya, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Afganistan list is really long... It's all about business and making money for U.S nothing else.
MLRS when you don’t want that grid square to exist any more. I use to love watching them fire their whole pods. I was in the m109a6 paladin but we were always in the field together.
Russia constantly escalates the war and constantly complains about the latest red line. Providing more powerful missiles would simply allow Ukraine to fight back, instead of simply defending itself.
It is so cool and smart they made the front of the launcher look the same with each size of missile. So if anyone was able to peek at them well enough, they wouldn't be able to tell the range of what was being carried.
Everything has value, but there will be a strong temptation to keep these longer range weapons farther back from the front-lines vs vanilla HIMARS, thus telegraphing the increased range capability to the satellite.
I was with 4/27 MLRS in the gulf war and they were pretty impressive from our end. Glad I never got to see the recieving end other than what was left behind. I remember the sonic boom from an ATCM waking us up one night. Scared the crap out of us.

Well yeah its literally a ballistic missile. I dont really get why the Army wants in on the Ballistic Missile game let alone expose a crew of Joes to such high decibals and shockwaves.
@9:10 You described the range of the PrSM's as "499 Km". That's an artificial value applied to comply with the limitations imposed by the Interim Ballistic Missile Treaty. Since Russia abrogated that treaty when they fielded the Iskander-M system, the PrSM's range is probably a good bit longer than 499 Km now.

@@MrDJAK777 They are already discussing a maritime PrSM for the pacific with a 1200km reach along with firing PrSM in volleys off ships via HIMARS. Once the PrSM is in flight, nearby F35s or drones can feed them proper targeting information while performing battle damage assessment. More advanced versions of PrSM seekers call for different optics for transmitting back data onway/before impact or PrSM coordinating at target for assignment or call off/redirect to secondary targets if the first target is destroyed. This will also fit nicely with the F35 package with less missile room but able to coordinate a range of current and next-gen US missiles that can link up with the F35s from air, land, and sea mid flight and have the range to perform operations once reaching the target.
When Army says, it's maximum 499km, it's just to comply with international laws, in fact is not the actual limit, affect the trajectory or the amount of fuel and the range could drastically changes .

I think there WILL be ATACMS sent to Ukraine - not a lot of them - at $1 Mil each - they are spendy and the GLSDB's are 1/20th the cost and have longer range. But - I do think the US (or other country) WILL send a few ATACMS to the UAF - to ensure the Kerch Bridge remains unable to function enough to use the rail portion. They might have to try more than once - but it has to drop.
@@generaldisarray6488 I don't think so. A few, as I said but mostly GLSDB's. ATACMS are about $1Mil each - and there aren't that many made - nor can they be made in high quantity.
@@tapio83 I doubt they have many ATACMS on the shelf. Not sure if they have a 'best before date' (probably decades if so) but for sure - when this is over - ALL of the older tech gear will be shipped and the shelves WILL be refilled with brand new assets. Sort of makes one wonder which came first - the need for the bombs and means of destruction - - or the actions requiring a response...?? But it sure will be good - - for American manufacturing. ALL plants making war-related equipment have all gone to triple-shifts...
@@bc-guy852 I have no info on shelf life of these but they are chemically powered rockets&explosives so they do have some set dates. As for numbers, publicly 3700 built, ~500 used in iraq&afghanistan. 650sold (some export numbers not public so +hundredorso). That leaves ~2500 to stock with manufacturing dates starting from ~30 years ago. Though some of that 2500 may have been destroyed also due to expiry unless they managed to use the aging stocks in iraq. Exported ones are likely new. So I suppose they could send some but number is likely closer to 100 than 1000.
The ATACMS is to be replaced with Lockheed Martin's Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), also able to be used in the Himars and M270 Platforms with 500km range, plus 200kms than the ATACMS. They call them the ATACMS on steroids.
@@gardnert1 I don't. the info provided regarding the ATACMS and PSM are the ones allowed to be shared with the mass public by the providers. If it's real or "top secret", then the errors about their range are not mine but on purpose build up truths acorded by providers and State. The same with everything: jet speeds, thrust vector, submarine speeds, time in water without resurfacing, whatever in the military mainly to maintain confidentiality of a given product: that's one of the reason behind of the why the F-22 was never exported by the US, not even to their closest allies. Otherwise, if uou think especially the military is like a credible open source info source, just visit the official sites and there's a lot of info on their products you can find there: this is not a US policy only, rather used all around the world by every nation able to produce top tier technologic products - or so all say they are...
@@gardnert1 you see there is a thing called the internet and on the internet there is a site called wiki and if you search for ATACMS there right on the first page it lists the page as 300km. and remember thats the de clasifid range
I don't think ATACMS will be sent to Ukraine for a couple reasons, extremely high cost of over $1 million a shot & low stock being the two big ones. But on the bright side it seems that Ukraine may have gotten the first batch of the GLSDB's which have a range of ~150k if I remember. A video covering the GLSDB's from SAAB & Boeing would be really cool
Actually, the problem with taking out some priority targets is warhead power. GLSDB and HIMARS GMLRS warheads are 250 lb class and M48/Harpoon is 500 lb, takes far too many for something like the Kerch strait rail bridge. Need to start at 1000 lb, so we'll see.
All warfare is based on deception. So what we think we know is controlled. We deployed HARM missiles without announcing them. Hopefully when these are used there is still denial that they exist.
He won't, he's either chosen to completely ignore the common use or it's a bot reading a script. Still worth watching either way, but I'm going to go with never.
They are very expensive though, I think because of the rising cost of groceries and household energy, they should halt production and development of all destructive capabilities and have world peace for a few years, you know, until people are no longer struggling to feed their families and keep them warm. I think that would be nicer. Don't you agree? I've spent over 40 years NOT in the defence industry, so I know what i'm talking about!

@OliHandy2008 Right... Because the United States stepping back from its security agreements and guarantees, the same ones that have allowed it to be the primary beneficiary of not only European, but global markets, and just allow those markets to devolve and fall apart in war, would mean "cheaper food" for Americans. It wouldn't cause an economic disaster in the United States or anything. I got an idea... How about the United States just steps back completely. I mean China has been trying to tell the Europe that it should be using its currency instead of the American dollar for global commerce for a long time. I'm sure the EU would just go right on supporting the American dollar just to be nice. It's not like being the currency of global exchange means much anyway. I'm sure it'll be very beneficial to the prices of household goods in the US. The United States is the greatest economy that has ever existed. But that's not a given. It requires a constant presence. Americans can't have one without the other.
It's really disappointing to hear Russia is invading their own comrades. I was really hoping as a young kid in the 90s that Russia would westernize and we'd have awesome global market, science and tech collaborations. I really like Russian culture and principles it's terrible how leadership corruption has plagued those people.
So Western governments aren't corrupt, you say? Just the Russian leadership you say? Well I've never been so enlightened. I thought ALL the global elites were equally corrupt. But it's just the Russians eh? Hmmmm. Incredible insights you provide.
@@OliHandy2008 Hmm, someone strike a nerve? I only ask as the OP never suggested corruption was unique to Russia? You seem to have made that up all on your own. The West has been aware of Putin’s nonsense over the past 30 yrs. No other country assassinates political opponents using nerve agents. No other country assassinate political opponents using Polonium. Only RUSSIA misbehaves this way. The reason the entire world has decided to end Putin’s military is due to all this past nonsense. What you seem to have missed is how the OP expresses their interest in Russia becoming a nation that can be welcomed by the rest of the world with trade and other positive relations. That said, Putin has pulled so much shit in Russia’s name and the world has grown tired of Putin’s tantrums. Putin fuked around and found out just how pathetic his armed forces have become after more 20+ yrs of HIS leadership. The pathetically poor condition of the Russian military is just one more example of the depth of corruption that Putin has allowed to flourish. Why is a convicted-criminal-turned-caterer (Prigozhin) running the invasion of Ukraine?! It’s laughable to to see an old convict dressed up in a military uniform recruiting other convicts to go to war for Russia. It’s also why Sergey Lavrov was literally *laughed* at in New Delhi when he suggested that the West started the war in Ukraine. When will the Russian people finally decide the future of Russia? Global trade has lifted so many out of poverty and Russia has some of the highest skilled workers in the world. Nations no longer conquer other countries for resources, they make goods and establish brands. Russia’s economy was smaller than that of Texas *before* Putin’s horribly misguided invasion of Ukraine. How many decades will it take to recover after Putin’s long gone?
I like when he said “ it would be seen as escalatory” if Ukraine fired missiles deep into Russia …..no thought that Russia has invaded deep into Ukraine,committed countless war crimes and only recently Lavrov addressed an audience in India and claimed Ukraine had invaded Russia…..mind you most of the audience pissed theirselves laughing 😂😂😂
Honest question: I thought cluster bombs were against the Geneva Convention, or some other treaty? I don't know if ATACMS is classified as this, but the footage clearly shows missiles breaking apart into sub-munitions before impact.
The big problem with older cluster munitions is the bomblets failed to explode leaving them lying in wait for civilians and friendly forces, making some areas deadly minefields for years to come. Newer munitions have resolved that issue. Russia regulary uses cluster munitions against Ukraine. The soon to be deployed GLSDB rocket motors used to carry old-fashioned cluster munitions. The cluster warneads were destroyed and are replaced with SDB, thus complying with the core issue of treaty.
Ukraine is the perfect weapons testing theater, best ever since WW2! By the gods will you all give Ukraine the ability to win? Stop dragging this out!!
I originally learned about this devastating destructive power in the Eric Banna Hulk Movie where a similar type weapon was used except I think it was fired from an artillery in placement! It’s was the warhead being delivered that shotgun spread the artillery round out like God took a Shotgun from heaven and rained down death below!
@@carinhall4508 Which HIMARS crew has been taken out? Give me map coordinates, so I can verify your claim.. OH, STILL NOT A SINGLE TRUCK, THAT WASN'T A DECOY?
Give Ukraine the ATACMS. Russia has had no problem indiscriminately targeting civilians. It’s time for Russian military personnel, bases, critical military infrastructure to be able to be targeted at the furthest ranges.

I say give whatever weapon system Ukraine needs to expel all the Russian invaders. Russia already crossed the red line when they invaded a sovereign state without provocations. They are in no place to dictate terms of how America and NATO helps the brave Ukrainians defend themselves.
No. They have a bomb in the GBU series that breaks up into guided submunitions. A single one of these bombs could take out like about forty tanks. The ATACMS series of guided missiles would lend itself to this kind of configuration. It could probably take out thirty or forty tanks by itself. It would be good for hitting staging areas and any other place where armor was congregating.
They already have a bomb dropped from an airplane that breaks up into guided submunitions that can take out forty or more tanks. It shouldn't be too great a trick to make a similar bomb delivered by an ATACMS missile.

So far, only one attack has been done with this missile, hitting Mariupol and having no reported damage. The issue is that Russian ADA has been very effective at destroying most of the MLRS salvos of 12+ missiles that 1 or 2 make it thru, so now with a single missile or a pair, it is unlikepy they are gonna make it to the target, not to mention the longer flight times means longer tracking times and more time to engage as many times as needed to destroy it. Just as the reported 10 "secret projectiles" fired on Mariupol most likely were all shot down and the reported explosions were them being destroyed since no damage was reported, and that was 8days ago.
ATACMS is fired from Fort Sill OK. The target is White Sands Missile Range. That range is 599 miles. With the strategic arms treaties gone trash by Russia they will probably make it far higher performance.

To unsubscribe from a channel because they said something you didn't agree or because your feelings got hurt with is a closed-minded way of thinking. He didn't say anything bad about Russia. Nobody wants to "destroy Russia" not even Ukraine, they just want their land back and Russia out. No one gave two shits about Russia before their "special military operation" invasion of Ukraine. It's Putin no one likes now, not the Russian people, he's the one who brought war, death, famine, and destruction. GTFO of Ukraine or overthrow Putin and all could be well again in 10 years or so but that won't happen now will it.
To be fair, S400s are not intercepting these rockets and they are effectivly disabling Russian supply lines. Ammo depots keep getting moved back, tank columns are being blown up, and generals are being killed. All thanks to these rockets.
Bye Russki. ATACMS isn't smashing you....yet....but its baby brothers are. It isn't "indoctrination." Many western weapons were specifically designed for smashing the USSR/Russia. Sure, they are used for other places. But since you have always wanted to destroy the West, many of its weapon systems were specifically designed and built to destroy your military capabilities. You should be thankful. Ours aren't programmed for civilian houses. Seems yours are though.
So it’s basically a cluster bomb from the video. Aren’t those internationally outlawed? I know Russia used them in Ukraine but we can’t give out goods that are not legal to use. If I’m wrong correct me.
The US is decommissioning their cluster munitions bombs that launch small explosive bomblets due to the risk of unexploded ordinance. However they are still using bombs and missiles that launch solid tungsten metal balls.
From all the destruction inflicted on Ukraine's armed forces, one wonders; how come none of these Smashing US wonder weapons didn't help Ukraine to at least slow down the Russians. The idea of stopping Russia is a fantasy, let's just slow them down. No "ATACMS" which is a fancy name for an imitated Russian Katyusha which has been around since early 1940s, and no other fancy US made weapon could make a dent in Ukraine. Daydreaming does help though but not in the battle field since Russia has over a dozen of more destructive types of multiple rocket launchers most of which have bigger warheads, longer range and better precision. In Artillery and rockets Russia dwarfs US and the world in both quality and quantity.
I would guess this is being kept in reserve against the time - if it ever comes - when Russia either crosses an American red line e.g. , tactical nukes, or seems to be breaking through to capture Kiev.
Russia already gave the nuclear warning if America crosses its red line. What else are nukes good for besides detering demons like the biden administration. The usa is not lord of the world. It cannot be allowed to rape countries year after year. Decade after decade. Really the world needs to turn its back on the west.

Why wouldn’t ATACAMS be used, since Kaliber cruise missiles have been launched from within Russia at Ukrainian civilian targets with a longer range? Why not just hand over Tomahawk cruise missiles? Russia has engaged in every type of provocation and escalation, so Ukraine should be legitimately targeting the Kremlin.
There’s another missile strike on a civilian target in Ukraine, why would the west or more especially Europe care about what hysteria it causes in the Kremlin if they get their own medicine?
If things escalate out of hand into a global conflict, that would mean a nuclear exchange. We’re not there yet. It’s all a question of what, exactly the Russians want. They want to stand in the way of Europe emerging as a superpower and being subsumed by it. They have already hastened the emergence of an expansion of NATO and the awakening of European defence contractors getting involved in the mix.

We keep seeing the ruthless attacks on civillians in Ukraine but our leaders don't want Ukraine to be able to strike into Russia. This make no sense at all.

Ukraine does not even have ATACMS and yet the title says they do.
I think there WILL be ATACMS sent to Ukraine - not a lot of them - at $1 Mil each - they are spendy and the GLSDB's are 1/20th the cost and have longer range. But - I do think the US (or other country) WILL send a few ATACMS to the UAF - to ensure the Kerch Bridge remains unable to function enough to use the rail portion. They might have to try more than once - but it has to drop.
@@generaldisarray6488 I don't think so. A few, as I said but mostly GLSDB's. ATACMS are about $1Mil each - and there aren't that many made - nor can they be made in high quantity.
How about sending them whatever leftover Lance missiles are left in warehouses. Couple those with leftover napalm and cluster bombs
@@bc-guy852 I bet ATACMS also have shelflife so they could send the ones expiring sooner than later.
@@tapio83 I doubt they have many ATACMS on the shelf. Not sure if they have a 'best before date' (probably decades if so) but for sure - when this is over - ALL of the older tech gear will be shipped and the shelves WILL be refilled with brand new assets.
Sort of makes one wonder which came first - the need for the bombs and means of destruction - - or the actions requiring a response...??
But it sure will be good - - for American manufacturing. ALL plants making war-related equipment have all gone to triple-shifts...
@@bc-guy852 I have no info on shelf life of these but they are chemically powered rockets&explosives so they do have some set dates. As for numbers, publicly 3700 built, ~500 used in iraq&afghanistan. 650sold (some export numbers not public so +hundredorso). That leaves ~2500 to stock with manufacturing dates starting from ~30 years ago.
Though some of that 2500 may have been destroyed also due to expiry unless they managed to use the aging stocks in iraq. Exported ones are likely new.
So I suppose they could send some but number is likely closer to 100 than 1000.

The ATACMS is to be replaced with Lockheed Martin's Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), also able to be used in the Himars and M270 Platforms with 500km range, plus 200kms than the ATACMS. They call them the ATACMS on steroids.
How do YOU know what the actual range is of the ATACMS is?
@@gardnert1 I don't. the info provided regarding the ATACMS and PSM are the ones allowed to be shared with the mass public by the providers. If it's real or "top secret", then the errors about their range are not mine but on purpose build up truths acorded by providers and State. The same with everything: jet speeds, thrust vector, submarine speeds, time in water without resurfacing, whatever in the military mainly to maintain confidentiality of a given product: that's one of the reason behind of the why the F-22 was never exported by the US, not even to their closest allies. Otherwise, if uou think especially the military is like a credible open source info source, just visit the official sites and there's a lot of info on their products you can find there: this is not a US policy only, rather used all around the world by every nation able to produce top tier technologic products - or so all say they are...

I used to be a technician on the MLRS system. very effective and accurate mobile indirect fire.
I don't think ATACMS will be sent to Ukraine for a couple reasons, extremely high cost of over $1 million a shot & low stock being the two big ones. But on the bright side it seems that Ukraine may have gotten the first batch of the GLSDB's which have a range of ~150k if I remember. A video covering the GLSDB's from SAAB & Boeing would be really cool
Google it, its already been promised as well as higher range himars ammo.
So you're a NAZI?
The GLSDB has a low power warhead. Its not much good at taking out high priority targets like bridges. Also150k is not exactly long range
Which would explain how they hit Mariupol. That's approximately a 150km shot
Actually, the problem with taking out some priority targets is warhead power. GLSDB and HIMARS GMLRS warheads are 250 lb class and M48/Harpoon is 500 lb, takes far too many for something like the Kerch strait rail bridge. Need to start at 1000 lb, so we'll see.
Scary. I think all protagonists should be made to watch this. It might just shorten some wars.

Yes sir.

All warfare is based on deception. So what we think we know is controlled. We deployed HARM missiles without announcing them. Hopefully when these are used there is still denial that they exist.
yes, this video is definitely deceiving!
They havent recieve that, but there are rumors they got the glsdb for the MLRSs we gave them.

As someone that's spent the last 20 years in the defense industry, I think we cant get them there fast enough. We really need to up production.
They are very expensive though, I think because of the rising cost of groceries and household energy, they should halt production and development of all destructive capabilities and have world peace for a few years, you know, until people are no longer struggling to feed their families and keep them warm. I think that would be nicer. Don't you agree? I've spent over 40 years NOT in the defence industry, so I know what i'm talking about!

How about the United States just steps back completely.
I mean China has been trying to tell the Europe that it should be using its currency instead of the American dollar for global commerce for a long time.

It's really disappointing to hear Russia is invading their own comrades. I was really hoping as a young kid in the 90s that Russia would westernize and we'd have awesome global market, science and tech collaborations. I really like Russian culture and principles it's terrible how leadership corruption has plagued those people.
So Western governments aren't corrupt, you say? Just the Russian leadership you say? Well I've never been so enlightened. I thought ALL the global elites were equally corrupt. But it's just the Russians eh? Hmmmm. Incredible insights you provide.
@@OliHandy2008 Hmm, someone strike a nerve? I only ask as the OP never suggested corruption was unique to Russia? You seem to have made that up all on your own.
The West has been aware of Putin’s nonsense over the past 30 yrs. No other country assassinates political opponents using nerve agents. No other country assassinate political opponents using Polonium. Only RUSSIA misbehaves this way. The reason the entire world has decided to end Putin’s military is due to all this past nonsense.
What you seem to have missed is how the OP expresses their interest in Russia becoming a nation that can be welcomed by the rest of the world with trade and other positive relations. That said, Putin has pulled so much shit in Russia’s name and the world has grown tired of Putin’s tantrums. Putin fuked around and found out just how pathetic his armed forces have become after more 20+ yrs of HIS leadership. The pathetically poor condition of the Russian military is just one more example of the depth of corruption that Putin has allowed to flourish.
Why is a convicted-criminal-turned-caterer (Prigozhin) running the invasion of Ukraine?! It’s laughable to to see an old convict dressed up in a military uniform recruiting other convicts to go to war for Russia. It’s also why Sergey Lavrov was literally *laughed* at in New Delhi when he suggested that the West started the war in Ukraine.
When will the Russian people finally decide the future of Russia? Global trade has lifted so many out of poverty and Russia has some of the highest skilled workers in the world. Nations no longer conquer other countries for resources, they make goods and establish brands. Russia’s economy was smaller than that of Texas *before* Putin’s horribly misguided invasion of Ukraine. How many decades will it take to recover after Putin’s long gone?

Of course every Russian is going to say, is it hypersonic. Hyper sonic is like in a wheelchair. Are they kidding. We are way beyond hyper sonic.
Honest question: I thought cluster bombs were against the Geneva Convention, or some other treaty? I don't know if ATACMS is classified as this, but the footage clearly shows missiles breaking apart into sub-munitions before impact.
Its in a treaty but the US was one of the countries to not sign off on it, so we still have cluster munitions
See Desert Storm & Op Iraqi Freedom where cluster munitions were regularly deployed by US.
Ukraine isn’t a signatory to that pact🧐😇😏🥸
The big problem with older cluster munitions is the bomblets failed to explode leaving them lying in wait for civilians and friendly forces, making some areas deadly minefields for years to come. Newer munitions have resolved that issue. Russia regulary uses cluster munitions against Ukraine. The soon to be deployed GLSDB rocket motors used to carry old-fashioned cluster munitions. The cluster warneads were destroyed and are replaced with SDB, thus complying with the core issue of treaty.
Why should Ukraine honour a deal that Russia itself doesn’t abide by??

What a terrible shame to have to waste these beautiful looking missiles on Russians.
Maybe they could design an ATACMS anti armor warhead that breaks up into guided sub munitions, and that would take out large numbers of tanks.
Like 155mm Excalibur but less practical?
No. They have a bomb in the GBU series that breaks up into guided submunitions. A single one of these bombs could take out like about forty tanks. The ATACMS series of guided missiles would lend itself to this kind of configuration. It could probably take out thirty or forty tanks by itself. It would be good for hitting staging areas and any other place where armor was congregating.
@@georgepalmer5497 You play too many video games, this is real life 🙄🤦🏼♂️🇺🇦🌻
They already have a bomb dropped from an airplane that breaks up into guided submunitions that can take out forty or more tanks. It shouldn't be too great a trick to make a similar bomb delivered by an ATACMS missile.

You threw me by misspelling "United States" as "us", which in itself is a word, you know, a pronoun.
So far, only one attack has been done with this missile, hitting Mariupol and having no reported damage.
The issue is that Russian ADA has been very effective at destroying most of the MLRS salvos of 12+ missiles that 1 or 2 make it thru, so now with a single missile or a pair, it is unlikepy they are gonna make it to the target, not to mention the longer flight times means longer tracking times and more time to engage as many times as needed to destroy it. Just as the reported 10 "secret projectiles" fired on Mariupol most likely were all shot down and the reported explosions were them being destroyed since no damage was reported, and that was 8days ago.
That was GLSDB, NOT ATACMS.
GLSDB is a Swedish/US bomb with wings and a cheap (relatively) rocket motor.
Nathan must be a supporter of the eViL hItLeR pUtInS. The az0v n@zis will get these missles and win the war!

Cluster munitions is but one payload ATACMS uses. There are others.
The US is decommissioning their cluster munitions bombs that launch small explosive bomblets due to the risk of unexploded ordinance. However they are still using bombs and missiles that launch solid tungsten metal balls.

No "ATACMS" which is a fancy name for an imitated Russian Katyusha which has been around since early 1940s, and no other fancy US made weapon could make a dent in Ukraine. Daydreaming does help though but not in the battle field since Russia has over a dozen of more destructive types of multiple rocket launchers most of which have bigger warheads, longer range and better precision.
In Artillery and rockets Russia dwarfs US and the world in both quality and quantity.
I would guess this is being kept in reserve against the time - if it ever comes - when Russia either crosses an American red line e.g. , tactical nukes, or seems to be breaking through to capture Kiev.
Russia already gave the nuclear warning if America crosses its red line. What else are nukes good for besides detering demons like the biden administration. The usa is not lord of the world.

Why wouldn’t ATACAMS be used, since Kaliber cruise missiles have been launched from within Russia at Ukrainian civilian targets with a longer range? Why not just hand over Tomahawk cruise missiles? Russia has engaged in every type of provocation and escalation, so Ukraine should be legitimately targeting the Kremlin.
Putin would have a hisy fit if Ukraine targeted the Kremlin.
There’s another missile strike on a civilian target in Ukraine, why would the west or more especially Europe care about what hysteria it causes in the Kremlin if they get their own medicine?
If things escalate out of hand into a global conflict, that would mean a nuclear exchange. We’re not there yet. It’s all a question of what, exactly the Russians want.
