KYIV, Ukraine– Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview published Sunday that Russia has a “sufficient stockpile” of cluster munitions, and warned that Russia “reserves the right to take reciprocal action” if Ukraine uses the controversial weapons.
In his first comments on the delivery of cluster munitions to Ukraine from the U.S., Putin said that Russia has not used cluster bombs in its war in Ukraine so far.
“Until now, we have not done this, we have not used it, and we have not had such a need,” he said, although the use of cluster bombs by both Russia and Ukraine has been widely documented,

Russia has already been using them. No change, just more fist shaking.

It is clear Biden is stoking the fires for WWIII. The numerous escalations he alone has created is an existential threat to the entire world. The fools in NATO along with both Democrats and republicans in our government are standing by while the corrupt and incompetent Joseph R. Biden is pushing the world toward nuclear war with these insane escalations. I cannot for the life of me understand why Ukraine is worth starting a world war for much less one fought with nuclear weapons. Someone please stop this insanity! Biden should not have the power of life and death over this entire globe. He likely can’t even dress himself.

Baloney #2. This same story line about China and Russia during Vietnam was BS then, and is still BS. It kept the Dems from mining Haiphong harbir ir bombing Hanoi for years. Finally Nixon did both, forced the NV to negotiate.
Nobody is going to use nukes.
Hard fact.

The Ukraine shills are out early today. We need to cut Ukraine loose. Collect their data on their massive money laundering, because that’s the only reason, besides propping up the munitions contractors, that the war mongering jerks in government are supporting this war. US out of Ukraine now.

Never say never. #2 is absolutely correct. Remember Hitler and WWII? It wasn't supposed to happen but America got sucked into it. Then came the Vietnam War. It's true, history repeats itself and we never learn. This 21st century, it seems like Putin is the only sane world leader when pitted against the Diaper and the Z.

This and the previous story of the grain embargo has formed in my mind a hypothesis for the reason for this engineered war in the Ukraine. To wit: ravage Europe's bread-basket, causing hunger and deprivation in Europe. And, even better!...mass starvation in the improvident third world. All to achieve the severe population reduction so desired by the Global Evil Left: WEF, WHO, Klo Schwamm, Bildo Gates et. al.

Putin talking about fairness is a hoot. Apparently he hasn't heard the old saying, "All's Fair in Love and War."
The Biden Clown Show is in the unique position of stopping this war by other means, particularly economic. Stop shipping money and weapons and get these people to the negotiating table. Ukraine is not worth it but the lives of their people are. Europe would like nothing better to have Russia removed from the continent so they can sleep securely in their beds under the American security blanket but none of them have the means to do it, they can't even pay their share of NATO. America has a habit of engaging in decades-long wars and not finishing them. The only people who like that method are Halliburton and Raytheon.

Russia has limited amounts of cluster weapons. They historically preferred indiscriminate artillery fire.
This is an empty threat.

If the Nazis are going to use cluster bombs, I guess it's only fair that the Commies do too.
So what if a bunch more people, including a lot of civilians, will be maimed and killed in a grotesque fashion, as long as Die Füher Zelensky and Dictator-Wanna-Be Senile Joe bidet are getting their cut off the top, let's just keep this party going.
If you still believe this is the good guys versus the bad guys, you haven't been paying attention. This is the bad guys versus the worse guys, and I don't even know who is who anymore. You chose. And, honestly, I wouldn't even care except for the billions of our tax dollars that are paying for this useless war. And now Senile Joe bidet is hell-bent on making this WW-III -- with our boys (and sadly girls this time too) dying on the ground for something that has nothing to do with our national sovereignty!!!!! And anyone who thinks that Russia will not bring WW-III to our shores is totally insane.
Elections have consequences, especially stolen ones!!!!!

Ukraine has fired off most of the U.S.'s ammunition supply, and now we have to reach into our cluster munitions to keep them going. I don't think things are going nearly as well as Ukraine would have us believe.
