Every time I see headlines like these I remember that Ukraine denied the US told them to stop hitting oil plants in Russia, but people kept repeating the story.

Anyway…

Ukrainian forces launched a drone attack on Kardymovo, Smolensk Oblast tonight, successfully hitting a pair of Russian oil depots.

Both of the complexes are heavily burning.

Well, they know what Iran’s air defenses look like now, and they’re not very good.

There were two separate incidents in the US and the UK in the last week - both ammunition manufacturing sites. Both suffered minor fires/explosions.

That’s more than all the post 1945 Russian conflicts combined. Putin is not paying attention to his butcher’s bill.

They’re getting 24 from Norway next month. They will come fully loaded.

Remember that Ukraine put around 6,000 troops in Iraq when the US called. They ended up losing over 100. We called and they were an ally. You don’t treat allies this way and expect to have allies for long.

Good to also add Saudi Arabia who also participated. This must have irked Iran.

Oh, they have their own nuke resources according to the International Atomic Energy Agency. Same guys that said Iraq had nothing.

By suggesting that this attack was real, but was thwarted by a collective defense, means that there is no need for the Israelis to retaliate because they already “took the win” as Biden supposedly told Netanyahu. In other words, be satisfied with how you handled led this with our help but don’t get cocky and try it again anytime soon.

Though I’m trying not to respond to you, it’s a good question. I don’t think anybody, including me, can explain how global oil markets really work. Those that can are making money right now and aren’t here. I’ve done a little spot market trading, and it is very reactive. Traders overprepare for events and always in worse case scenarios. I believe they overprepared for middle east war, and Iran’s attack was such a failure that they all reversed at the same time.

Which the mullahs will put down pdq. They could lynch them all. Poison for the women. Lovely people with asshole leaders.

Democrats have already said they won’t consider an Israeli aid bill without a Ukrainian aid bill.

Bottom line is Isreai won’t throw missles all over the middle east, because they don’t use air to ground missles

Read each from the top and when you get here I’ll explain it again

What does that even mean?

“Hopefully that means if Israel does it anyway they will pay a price too heavy to bear,”

That wasn’t you huh.

You see. I remark that missiles have landed in a lot of places putting a lot of different people in jeopardy. The response is “Isreal does too”. Then i inform that Israel doesn’t fly missiles. Comprende

I find it truly amusing when the Ceasefire Now crowd celebrates future attacks.

Isreal doesn’t fly many air to ground missles. They use airplanes.

If you cheer on Iran’s strikes on Israel, remember that in addition to Jewish Israelis, Arabs, Palestinians, Muslims & Christians could lose their lives in the attack. Iranian projectiles endanger Ramallah, Bethlehem, Nablus, Amman, Lebanon, Syria & Iraq. War’s not an online game

I believe that when Biden says he won’t put US troops into harm’s way he means it.
