I knew someone would argue it's a false flag and the question for it is why? It would have been logical in the first months of the war but now that the Ukes have the breakthrough and full on global support. There is zero reason to take the risk right now.
Because its far more logical than Russia launching rockets into no-mans land without any military targets within 70 kilometers.
 
Well shit, it's a couple missiles that went off track and didn't do much damage. It obviously sucks that people were killed but this isn't exactly the kind of thing you start a war over.

You start them over more civilized things, like ears and addicting the Chinese to drugs.

I don't know, maybe Poland gets an Acqure Core CB out of this.

Russia hasn't been using these missiles on military targets, all of the strikes are on infrastructure. Lviv is in pretty close proximity and was hit previously in October, it's not hard to conclude they went off track for whatever reasons. It's obviously not an intentional strike on Polish territory, that's at least for certain.

Not to get NATO directly involved because that endangers the Anglos, but to get more Polish and Balt "volunteers" in Ukraine to do the fighting as they've been running out of actual Ukrainians for some time now.
 
I suspect this is a deliberate act by Russia, trying to test NATO.

The G20 is currently sitting, most of the big players in NATO are currently there. The timing is suspect.

Further, even with their lower quality missiles that Russia has had to rely on now for most of these strikes, they are no so inaccurate as to miss Ukraine by 9 miles.

In addition, this is a rural area - it's unlikely to of hit a house by chance.

Casualties are low, so probably calculated so that NATO couldn't justify article 5.

Sounds deliberate.

Assuming reporting thus far is accurate.
 
Who the fuck sends a missile to blow up two peasants from an adversarial but not technically hostile nation? Absolutely nothing about this makes sense as a deliberate attack.

Problem is, will it matter?
Don't see anyone claim it's deliberate, beside Russia and their shills claiming it's deliberately done by Ukraine as a provocation to push Poland/NATO into the war, of course.
Considering it happened when Russia launched something like 85 missiles at Ukraine, it doesn't strike me as improbable that one of them would end up overshooting and hitting Poland by accident. After all, we have footage of Russian missiles malfunctioning, these things happen.

There is a possibility of it being a failed intercept, I suppose. Because Ukraine is also using some of the same rockets. But I blame Kremlin for the whole thing anyway, of course.

By this point you should have come to the obvious conclusion that Slavs are retarded and don't know what they're doing
 
I’m still waiting on more information to come out, and I’m not in the Reddit mindset that we have been plunged into WWIII.

However, I do live very close to an Air Force base here in the states, and it’s been a week or two since I’ve heard jet planes flying over my house, multiple times each day, since October started. It’s just picked back up again.
 
This is terrifying, not because it will likely trigger a massive Article V retaliation tonight, but it gets everyone more worked up and baying for blood, more and better military aid which will motivate Ukraine to be more aggressive and possibly strike inside Russian borders, etc. all of which are escalatory measures and can't be walked back. I can also see a single drone strike or something blowing some shit up in Russia in tit-for-tat retaliation, which is dangerous as hell, but might be able to be managed without going to the brink. In fact that might be safer than giving Ukraine more and cooler toys. But nobody's accused the leadership on either side of being great statesmen at this point. In the past few years it just seems like we've hit one "never would happen" moment after an all. Interesting times, in the sense of the old Chinese curse. I wish things would get less and more interesting, though, I have near-draft age sons.

But you totally believe Polack REICH can smash the evil treacherous Russia, right?
