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.

Analysts argue Biden’s earlier caution was excessive, and calling Russia’s nuclear bluffs is strategically necessary to counter further extortion.

It is too a projection. They import shells, weapons and troops from Iran, NK, Africa, India, etc while (a) saying to everyone that lifting existing bans on imported systems is an escalation against them and (b) feeding their loyal listeners with myths about EU countries sending troops of mercenaries since the middle of 2022 and what not. Stopping by the local news broadcasts and headlines makes me wonder how deep the echo chamber really is.
