Is the express becoming an outlet for analysts to put out all kinds of what if theories, rather than presenting news of what is really happening.??
Quote from: IDM on March 10, 2022, 05:43:58 pmIs the express becoming an outlet for analysts to put out all kinds of what if theories, rather than presenting news of what is really happening.??Have a look at it. The European airports threat story is coming from an official Russian source. According to the Express.
This is the passage in;the expressThe Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman said: "We call on EU and NATO countries to stop the thoughtless flooding of the unviable Kyiv regime with the latest weapons systems in order to avoid enormous risk to international civilian aviation and other means of transport in Europe and beyond."I see no direct threat to any European airport in this text. It may be that they are concerned that surface to air missiles could endanger anything flying over Ukraine.I don’t see how Russia could start targeting international airports in any case, unless it was through cyber attacks on air traffic control systems .

It is opaque.The Russians do have cruise missiles that could feasibly target airports don't they?

They could use cruise missiles, but that would open up the biggest can of worms this planet has ever seen. Except perhaps when the world was in its infancy, and it was full of boiling gas and volcanoes.
Given the rhetoric by some on here it’ll be interesting to see if they take part in this.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60701941

Given the support some people have given to defund the BBC and rubbishing their output, it's also interesting to see them promote stories on it?
It won’t open for me on my iPad Dutch.
