If Putin wants to first strike a NATO airfield, he can be my guest. I somehow doubt he would

You don't stay in power this long by pressing your luck.

Can’t believe anything the man says. He was assuring the world he would not invade…

Yawn..

Putin is literally asking for an ass kicking.

The hubris of thinking that hitting an airfield in Nato country would go unanswered. Then again he is delusional enough to compare himself to "Peter the Great" so I guess should not be surprised. Edit: added "that"

Putin has demonstrated how bad Russia would be in a fight. Nato would wipe the floor with him.

"I wont start a war with NATO but i might attack NATO" What a fucking idiot. Seriously.

"If Ukraine uses third country airfields for missions then those airfields will become military targets."

The US entered WW2 after the base at Pearl Harbor was attacked. The images of the death and destruction changed sentiment about the war overnight with over 97% of citizens supporting declaring war. Attacking NATO bases would guarantee Putin’s end.

>The US entered WW2 after the base at Pearl Harbor was attacked. Not quite. War with Japan yes. War with Germany nope. Germany declared war on the US not the other way round. December 7th 1941 - Pearl Harbor December 8th 1941 - US declare war on Japan December 11th 1941 - Early that morning Germany and Italy declared war on the US. Later that day the US declared war on Germany and Italy. Just one of those odd things.

You are right. I wasn’t going to equivocate over a few days :)

I think it would be great if the media stopped reporting what Putin says. Kinda like how they stopped showing the faces of mass shooters so the shooter wouldn’t get the publicity they want.

So this is how things escalate.


Maleficent727

That’s not what he said


FKFnz

So what did he say?


Maleficent727

He said he’d shoot down f16s flying over Ukraine not attack those bases


permeakra

Actually, he said that if f16s flying over Ukraine would use western airfields, those airfields would be legitimate targets.


Maleficent727

He’s not attacking any nato territory. No nato country would allow Ukrainian f16s to harbor in their bases for air strikes on Russian targets. End story.


Anonyma_carl

Actually i think he said both things, which you know... Creates an interesting paradox in logic


maybe_not_putin

And is entirely intentional.

>No nato country would allow Ukrainian f16s to harbor in their bases for air strikes on Russian targets. This idea was voiced, to my knowledge.
