None of those bombers had nuclear weapons uploaded, so this point of yours is somewhat misleading. Those bombers are multipurpose and have conventional missions as well -- such as launching indiscriminate missile attacks, as they have in both Ukraine and Syria.

This is not an escalation. This is striking back at the bombers who are trying to freeze Ukrainian civilians to death. Preventing civilian deaths even as one is winning a war is a legitimate use of combat power. By your "logic", the Allies in 1944 should have ceased attacking German U-boats trying to starve out the UK because we were clearly winning.
Yes, your point really is that senseless.

Must've been a random coincidence, and we should give the mob boss the benefit of the doubt. That's what you sound like. And Jeff Epstein killed himself too.
You admitted having no evidence. Own it.

No wonder you have so little credibility here.
I'm not ducking anything. We've been over this before and have talked about this for many pages months ago. Everything points to the story being true.

And Boris Johnson publicly spoke out against a peace deal many times, so yeah, big conspiracy theory tin foil hattery to suggest that he would tell Zelenskyy at their meeting not to take any peace deal. Maybe you just haven't been following the news the past little while, so I forgive you for the ignorance.

And I love Hitchens and have read some of his books, but he died still claiming there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Just sayin.
