WTF is the white house trying to do? They struck a good balance IMO with moral, political, and materiel support without BOG and while limiting provocation of RU.
Allowing significant US hardware to be employed in RU territory is reckless and unnecessary. Who is actually calling the shots in the oval office???
Will it start WW-III? No. But it moves the needle a hair in that direction, and *could* potentially give internal political leverage to the RU hardliners. You know, the guys who have wanted to employ tac nukes in UA all along...
Meh, overblown. RU is fond of verbal bluster while they have no capability to wage a larger conventional war. A nuclear exchange would mean the destruction of russia, along with many other countries. I think what the Biden admin is doing is putting in helpful ( to Ukraine) policies that are not easily reversed without policical consequences, thereby helping them overcome the criminal acts by russia.
