The ambassador says there has been "deliberate cheating of us" as he'd received multiple assurances the Storm Shadows would only be used inside Ukrainian territory.

    Nooooooo we only provided weapons, guidance systems, money, intel, spies, and one or two or ten acts of sabotage.

    Ukrainians are the ones supposed to die for our stock market, not us!

    He’s in for a rude awakening if it does get involved…

      I’m sure he’s shaking in his boots

      Starmer has commissioned a strategic defence review, calling in a host of experts led by Lord George Robertson, the former Nato secretary-general. It’s a necessary start, but an inadequate one. The hallowed tradition of such reviews is that they pretend to reconcile grandiose ambitions with economic austerity. The result is that Britain has a Potemkin village military retaining the emblems of a pocket superpower, but without the necessary hard capabilities. The present disordered world does not leave room for such tricks.

    Maybe they should respect their own red lines and shoot an ICBM at Britain then 😉

      There’s a significant likelihood that Russia may retaliate against a NATO member due to further missile attacks directed towards their territory. The US would then face a critical decision, whether to engage in a nuclear war with Russia. At that point either we all die in a nuclear holocaust or NATO alliance would effectively collapse.

    Unfortunately, when trying to expand your regime sometimes other nations take issue (as they should)

    Direct support should have been immediate and global but each nation is too afraid of not being backed by all the others that they won’t take the risk.

    We, as a species, should be stomping on governments that attempt to take what rightly belongs to another.

      Indeed. We in the global south should have stomped out America during the cold war instead of letting them topple governments all over the world and making armed resistance against their proxies inevitable.

      No worries tho, America will go the way of Rome and the world will be well rid of it. It’s only a matter of whether that nazi ass country will succeed in their attempt to kill us all if it can’t keep leeching off our labor and resources.
