Exclamation Russian Missiles Hit Poland

Is what headlines are saying
Strikes put Ukraine in darkness; missiles cross into Poland

Officials are still assessing the situation and no real details yet. So, were Russia's missiles off the mark or has Putin lost his mind?

I believe this is an opportunity to arm Ukraine with long range missiles. Doubt NATO will engage with Russia directly yet until we hear from Putin the Great.

If it happens again (unlikely) then all bets are off. I could see Ukraine getting armed with long range missiles and intel on what to launch them at.

This was either a goof with old inaccurate missile, or Putin poking NATO to 'be strong' and see what he can get away with. Should clarify the second issue for him.

This morning's news is saying it was not a missile fired by Russia but more likely a Ukrainian missile or interceptor that missed.

The professional US army has been telling the Biden administration to wind down this thing.

However in the corridors are neocons, military salesmen and money launderers.

In the United States, the military answers to civilian authorities, comrade. As for neocons, the Biden administration is hardly neocon. As for money launderers, you seem to have confused Trump and his Russian patrons for Biden.

Russia faces demographic crisis, with a birth rate way below replacement. Hence Putin's deportation of thousands of Ukranian women and children to Russia. But a man who treats the population of a country as spoils of war is a monster. He must suffer, in the words of Churchill, "disasters overwhelming, and complete defeat."
