and why wouldn't he? Biden is attacking Russia.
What would the US do if Russia attacked the US with long range weapons from
central or South America??

Russia this morning threatened to strike US air bases in Poland with 'advanced
weapons' hours after it reportedly launched an advanced missile as part of a
brutal barrage of targets across Ukraine.
Moscow said the opening of a new US ballistic missile defence base in
Redzikowo near the Baltic coast will 'increase the overall level of nuclear danger',
adding it had been added to a list of possible targets for Russia.
The facility, opened on November 13, forms part of a broader NATO missile shield
called 'Aegis Ashore' designed to intercept short- and intermediate-range
ballistic weapons.

'This is another frankly provocative step in a series of deeply destabilising actions
by the Americans and their allies,' Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria
Zakharova said of the airbase's unveiling.
'(The base) has been added to the list of priority targets for potential destruction
which, if necessary, can be executed with a wide range of advanced weapons,'
she concluded.
Her statement came minutes after Ukraine's air force reported that a suspected
ICBM had been fired from a base in Russia's southern Astrakhan region on the
Caspian Sea early this morning.
Russian authorities have not yet confirmed the launch, but if true it would be the
first time such a powerful missile has been deployed in the war.
Some analysts expressed incredulity over reports of a fully-fledged ICBM being
deployed, arguing that the reported range of the strike - roughly 700km or 454
miles - fell short of what would typically be expected of an intercontinental
missile.
The alleged strike comes after Ukraine used US ATACMS and British Storm
Shadow missiles to demolish targets inside Russia following approval by Sir Keir
Starmer this week - something Moscow had warned for months would be seen
as a major escalation.

Moment 'nuclear-capable' Russian long-range missile strikes Ukraine

Ukraine's air force did not specify the missile that had been fired, but its launch
comes mere hours after a Russian military analyst said Moscow's forces could
unleash its fearsome RS-26 'Frontier' missile in retaliation for the Storm Shadow
strikes.
The Frontier missile is a nuclear-capable weapon weighing roughly 36 tonnes
with a range of up to 3,600 miles.
It has never before been used in combat, but analysts said it could be deployed
with a conventional warhead in a strike that Ukraine's air defences would be
powerless to intercept.
Ukrainska Pravda, a Kyiv-based media outlet, cited anonymous sources saying
the missile was indeed an RS-26 'Frontier', a solid-fuelled ICBM that was first
successfully tested in 2012.
Murky security camera footage out of the central-eastern city of Dnipro showed
the moment warheads rained down over Yuzhmash, a prominent Ukrainian state-
owned aerospace and defence manufacturer.
Experts said the use of an ICBM or similarly advanced long-range weapon to
deliver conventional explosives was very costly, but that it served to illustrate how
Moscow could dramatically escalate the conflict.
Dr Ruth Deyermond, Senior Lecturer in Post-Soviet Security at King's College
London, told MailOnline: 'This strike has no obvious military value - they could
achieve the same objectives without sacrificing an ICBM. It looks very much as if
it's signalling to the West what Russia could do if it chose to - launch a nuclear-
armed missile.
'But it's actually a sign of weakness,' she added. 'The Russian government knows
what would happen to it if they did attempt to use any kind of nuclear weapon, so
they have to resort to bluffing.'
Dr Mattias Eken, a defence and security analyst at RAND Europe, expressed
doubt the missile was in fact a fully fledged ICBM.
'The reported range of 700km falls short of the typical intercontinental range,
casting doubt on its classification as a full-fledged ICBM.
'If the missile was indeed an ICBM, Russia would have been required to provide
advance notification to the US to prevent triggering missile warning systems and
possible retaliatory actions.'
The Russian attack this morning targeted enterprises and critical infrastructure,
Ukraine's air force said, at a time of escalating moves in the 33-month-old war.
The Kremlin deployed Tu-95MS strategic bombers to launch cruise missiles and
MiG-31K fighters to fire hypersonic Kinzhal rockets in a calculated bid to plunge
Ukraine into darkness as a bitter winter approaches.
Some Russian missiles reportedly struck the towns of Kremenchuk and
Myrhorod, while areas in Kyiv, Odesa and Sumy regions suffered blackouts as the
electrical grid gave out.
NATO scrambled F-16 warplanes over neighbouring Poland and ground-based
air defence and radar systems were put on the 'highest state of readiness' amid
the attack, while Ukraine's air force reported air defences shot down six Kh-101
cruise missiles."

a curious, thoughtful person who questioned a source would look to see if the
story was published elsewhere. A thoughtless person would react out of habit.
