The Ukrainians can no more operate any missile systems that target Russia than I can. The US chooses targets, provides the satellite information to US or NATO ( a distinction without a difference) crews, who then program the operating system for launch.

The Ukrainians can no more operate any missile systems that target Russia than I can. The US chooses targets, provides the satellite information to US or NATO ( a distinction without a difference) crews, who then program the operating system for launch. Perhaps they let a Ukrainian actually push the "fire" button or key. Or a monkey. Putin has already publicly stated the obvious. All missiles fired at Russia are done by US forces. How much more " we are in an active shooting war with Russia " can you get.?
I was listening to conservative talk radio a couple of days ago. Brian Kilmead (I believe) was interviewing a (female) US general (didn't catch what branch). They talked about this, and both seemed almost ecstatic that giving our blessing to Ukraine to fire US missiles into Russia is the right thing to do! Really? If you didn't know better, you would believe by their whole conversation that it's the US that is at war with Russia. I was flabbergasted at the total and complete IGNORANCE of these two "conservatives." Not that I listen to talk radio a lot, but I definitely won't be listening to this guy anymore. Geez...
I read one of Kilmeade‘s books. It was obvious that it was written by a team.. the team said one thing on one page and then in the next chapter a different team member said the opposite.
If the Russians respond by bombing the US, I hope they pick heavily Democrat voting suburbs. The people there are so stupid to have elected this govt and this will hold responsible for the result of their voting. Their deaths won't be missed or inconvenience the productive part of the country.
Putin doesn't have the balls. He's all hat, no cattle as we say here.
They have lost an estimated 500k men and 16k vehicles and in the last month alone roughly 4 S300 and S400 air defense batteries complete with launchers.
If they want to go from picking up some land and beating up on a neighbor to getting your forces demolished..by all means. Do it.

As one who never (!) watches msm - I wonder just how much the (left-leaning) American public really knows about this.....
It is perhaps the single most frightening (and idiotic) decision ever reached - and unilaterally, yet !

Brian Kilmeade is NOT a conservative.
He writes interesting historical books, but his interest in what is true seems to end sometime in the 1800s

I have seen (heard) the same - some have surprised the hell out of me by their stance...
Kilmead is horrible!!!! I can’t stand that man!!!
Yeah, he showed me his true (irresponsibly ignorant) colors. Won't be listening to him again.
This is not correct at all.
The Ukrainians have been trained on and using the patriot, Himars, Nasams, IRIS-T, and others for nearly 2 years.
https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/10/politics/ukrainians-patriot-missiles-fort-sill/index.html#:~:text=Ukrainian%20troops%20are%20set%20to%20begin%20training%20on,operating%20and%20maintaining%20the%20advanced%20air%20defense%20system.
This was at the beginning of 2023. The operator's course is roughly 14 weeks and we send 17 year olds to it.
If a 17 year old American can do it how is it so foreign and hard that a Ukrainian can't?
I was there helping train. Your comment is not truthful.
I can post dozens and dozens of links to the training programs here in the USA and in Europe (Spain, Poland, Germany, Sweden, etc).
