Admin Note: In light of the Russian government's recognition of the breakaway Donbass republics of Donetsk and Lugansk on 21 February 2022, and the subsequent launch of Russian military intervention in Ukraine to 'denazify' and 'demilitarize' the country as a whole, this thread has been split off from the 2014 thread 'Civil War in Ukraine: Western Empire vs Russia', reflecting the changed situation in Ukraine from a state of civil war to one of war between Russia and Ukraine.
Do you think Russia will take the bait and blame Kyiv when the U.S. is the perpetrator? What if the Russian leadership decides to question the false-flag story in a very public way and blame the U.S. instead.
This shows Russia has zero tolerance policy on incursion into its territory by foreign militaries. I mean, who can blame them? US, UK would do the same.
My main worry currently is an attack to be carried out deep within Russia which I think will force Russia's hand at hunting down perpetrators. If say perpetrators are found to be in Kiev then Russia will probably send a team to Kiev to dispense justice and right there you'll have the much hyped "Russian invasion". I'm thinking this is one of the main ways they get Russia into Ukraine and then the war begins.
