There is nothing particularly remarkable here. Russia fired a rake of missiles, a missile shows up in Poland which appears to be Russian made. Russia was an initial suspect here for good reasons, they investigated it and established the truth within 24 hours.
As I said, Russia is the cause of it in any case.

Undoubtedly Russia is main instigator, but the instant blame of Russia without the full facts by the Latvian Prime minister and Polish foreign minister is extremely worrying from a NATO perspective.

The main point though is, the longer this conflict goes on increases the chances of a NATO/Russian military incident.  It doesn't matter if it's an accident/deliberate the outcome will be the same.


The "main" instigator?. Who are the other instigators?

Which papers?

Daily Mirror - "Russian bombs hit Poland"

The Times - "Russians blamed for fatal strike on Poland"

The S*n - "Putin bombs NATO"

Daily Express - "Russian missiles kill 2 in Poland"

I'm sure there are others, someone said the Sindo had a similar headline but I haven't seen it.

The Russian government has banned the Irish government ministers and top officials from visiting.
I expect that Leo will have to reassess his holiday plans.

It's OK to say Ukraine fucked up and a lot of the western media lost the run of themselves, don't lose objectivity.

Zelensky is nuts. I feel like the Wesht, Biden in particular, are starting to catch on.

So, what - NATO attack Russia anyway? It's like Russia saying, "oh, NATO supplies all these weapons, training, and advice to Ukraine, let's attack NATO".
Useful idiot spiel. absolute quakery  ;D

Both protagonists, Russia and Ukraine have nothing to gain by targeting Poland. Even the shít for brains Russian army knows that.
Poland are already committed 100% to supporting Ukraine and this missile will not diminish that support, probably just deepen that resolve.

Zelensky is a war time leader and never lets that facade down, all the facts are probably not known yet about the Polish border missle but his doubling down on 'it was the Russians' is not a good look for him & his allies, a bit of humility and some political acumen would be a better path.
