President Donald Trump just made the single most CATACLYSMIC mistake of his entire Presidency: He said, from the Oval Office, that he has "Kind of decided" to give Tomahawk Cruise Missiles to Ukraine.
Trump then disastrously went further. He said he wants to ask what targets they will be used against. By saying this, he is acknowledging that the United States directly approves the targets being hit by Ukraine, with American-supplied, and American-satellite-guided missiles.
Here is video:
Earlier today, Russia made clear that if the US supplies Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine "It will destroy all the work done over these past months to rebuild US-Russia-relations."
Worse, late last week, Russia reminded everyone that such missiles require American space satellites to guide them to target. As such, an American-supplied missile, guided to target by American satellites, will be treated by Russia as an attack by the United States upon Russia. Russia pointed out that it does not matter who pulls the trigger (i.e. Ukraine) they are American missiles guided by American satellites to target, that would be striking Russia.
Even more horrifying, Russia declared that since the Tomahawk can be armed with EITHER conventional or nuclear warheads, if Russia sees the radar silhouette of a Tomahawk missile coming at Russia, they will have no choice but to treat the missile as nuclear, and launch (their nukes)-on-warning.
