Poland Missile Strike May Have Come From Ukraine Self-Defense: US Officials

Update (0017ET): The missile that struck Poland may have been fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian missile, AP reports, citing three unidentified US officials.

[K]ey questions around the circumstances of the missile launch remained amid the confusion caused by a blistering series of Russian airstrikes across the nearby border in Ukraine, none larger than who fired it. Russia denied any involvement in the Poland blast.

Three U.S. officials said preliminary assessments suggested the missile was fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian one amid the crushing salvo against Ukraine’s electrical infrastructure Tuesday. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicl

Poland Missile Strike May Have Come From Ukraine Self-Defense: US Officials

I think this an important update.

But not as important as to pay attention to how the tragedy was used by talking heads all over the planet.

You see, most just heard "Russian" and ran with it.

I thought I'd share this one as soon as possible before too many of us jump to conclusions, like the MSM did.

EDIT TO ADD UPDATE

Associated Press issues correction after reporting Russian missiles killed two people in Poland

I was discussing the situation earlier with a friend and we both agreed that this was the most likely scenario given the evidence available to the public.
Sucks that incidents such as these occur more often than we would like to admit. But that is war unfortunately.

Zelensky did a photo op in kherson and called it a victory a bit mature.
Than you have something like this happen where Zelensky had being pushing NATO militarily to intervene in Ukraine.


How is this a sign that Ukraine is winning?

The Ukrainian people are just grist for their mill... there are no winners there except the black market, oligarchs, and the prostitutes in government who serve them.

Sorry, that may have come off more rudely than I intended...

Biden in Bali stated that it was most likely "not Russia"

We don't know .
Instead of everyone running around like a chicken with it's head cut off proclaiming how Russia attacked Poland , they should wait until they DO KNOW .
Ignorance is as ignorance says .

Wizard's First Rule: people are stupid." Richard and Kahlan frowned even more. "People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool

You had such brave and stunning news outlets, headlines from the British clown outlets.
"Russian soldiers swim naked from Kehrson, from AFU"

Completely far fetched headlines.

So then, more than 2 innocent polish citizens?
Ok then…..


Anyone else make out where this is headed? And clearly whom is driving?

I called this on Twitter early on and the cucks with Ukraine flags and made up pronouns trolled me hard. lol Which I love anyways.

Even CNN with its “Russian-made missile” headline explains it wasn’t known to whom the missile belonged or where it was shot from.

This in itself I found rather telling FWIW.

a reply to: slatesteam

Yeah, the big font headlines are like that now.... the utterances of their trained talking head monkeys is little more than a footnote. It's the visual equivalent of 'click-bait.'

BREAKING NEWS: RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA
(maybe)

As soon as the pentagon shifted the narrative the bots went quiet or started calling for peace talks. It happened here as well...

You know your government is ****ed up when the military is the one calling for peace and the politicians are a bunch of bloodthirsty warmongers provoking WWIII. I will give Biden credit for calling the Poland missile what it was though.

It's I'm finally glad to see some people with some pull growing a pair.

Even if it is this tool.

Regarding the photo, you can select to only wear your top 3 medals. It’s more common in the Navy, but some people have so many ribbons they’d have to alter their uniform to fit them all.

a reply to: Middleoftheroad

Nice! Not many people know that.

(Of course, most modern generals have the dress uniforms altered... so there's that.)

But Ike's more of an exception than the rule.

In this case the media can whine like the bitch’s they are, slavering for their masters motives.

Cooler heads will prevail here and are prevailing. You don’t start WW3 because a ‘rogue’ missile hit Poland. Whatever the circumstances this will be downplayed and assessed as an accident in which a Russian Made missile fired by Ukraine hit Poland. Obviously it doesn’t explain the missiles hitting Moldova, but we are not hearing about those because Moldova isn’t in NATO.

As is right the adults will de-escalate this situation and it will go away. I imagine, in the background, words will be said and positions restated.

No harm done, except to the poor souls who lost their lives in Poland.

Listening to UK Sky news is making me laugh this morning. They went all out yesterday blaming Russia. This morning they are 'circling back' and saying the missile strike in Poland wouldn't have happened if Russia hadn't invaded Ukraine, and Ukraine was only trying to deflect the Russian bombardment with over 100 missiles hitting Ukraine yesterday! Seriously???

You hold the gun, you fire the gun..... you miss your target and kill somebody else..... you still fired the gun.
Russia said it wasn't them. Biden says it wasn't Russia. Not a word of apology to Poland that I've heard yet, from Ukraine.

Maybe all this is to distract from the news that the Democrats gave billions to Ukraine, which in turn Ukraine donated a bunch of that money to the FTX crypto exchange and then FTX donated like 40 million to the Democrat party. You know, money laundering! Funny how FTX just blew up financially too.

'Bloodthirsty Warmongers'?

Let me get this right. Russia is, of course, not NATO and the warmongering propaganda machinery, their presstitutes and several transatlantic controlled war-hawk politicians said now it´s time for the NATO alliance case. If i am not totally wrong informed the Ukraine is not a NATO member too. Isn´t it time now for all the war-hawks and NATO supporters, for all the transatlantic controlled war-hawks, to ask for the NATO alliance case against the Ukraine?

Tbh, when i heard about that incident yesterday i asked myself: Cui bono? Who is doing everything since months to get the NATO involved in that wag the dog war scenario in the Ukraine? Is it Putin or is it Selenskyi? If Russia retreats, why should they do such a terribly stupid move to get the NATO involved while retreating? Why did all the pro-NATO war-hawks instantly call for the NATO alliance case, why did the MSM propaganda machinery work with 110% on their propaganda regarding this incident? Why was there a Wikipedia entry a few seconds/minutes after the incident happened?

a reply to: angelchemuel

The same British news media outlets that were creating hilariously clearly fake headlines from Ukraine like this.
"Russian Soldiers swim across river as they fled kherson"
The telegraph.

When Russians withdrawn the area without issues.
Your British News media sure likes to make up news headlines now

They went all out yesterday blaming Russia

Its all scripted its what they had being programmed to say on the cameras.


Just as they are lying about the soaring energy bills.
They Media never blame the sanctions..
