Russian military intentionally bombs @Refugees, the UN Refugee Agency in Kherson, Ukraine, from drones.
And Russians themselves proudly post these videos for everyone to see, because they are confident of their impunity.
@UN, Russia is pissing in your faces, and you are happy about it.

RT @MarkUrban01: Now we get a glimpse of the US/Israeli discussion that's taken place since the Iranian ballistic missile attack on 1/10. Likely the Israelis have accepted Pentagon requests limiting targeting in Iran in return for a package incl THAAD missiles + developed understanding about threshold for any US action against Iran https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1845484774837682307#m

@Deltic1944: No. Yesterday Israeli media reported that a decision had already been made, and US media said that it hadn't. Now WSJ is being told that a decision has been made.

@LastWordWilliam: Biden's priority was convincing Israel to limit their retaliatory strikes against Iran. That's the trade that is being made.

@sentdefender: US spent 16 years building ~800 THAAD interceptors, for the stockpile that could be drained in Israel in a handful of similar attacks like the one from two weeks ago.
There are 750 US bases around the world, in NATO countries, around China, and US with only 5 THAAD to defend them

@michaelEnwankwo @sentdefender: The THAAD system can launch a maximum of 48-72 missiles at once and it takes 30 minutes to reload. Iran’s last attack used 180 ballistic missiles and they all hit within 15 minutes. US only has 800 THAAD interceptors. There is no need to use them against garbage Iranian missiles.

@William_Astral6: Of course it was effective. They're just running out of interceptors.

Saying you're for strengthening America's defense industrial base is meaningless if you vote against it. Projects like this are opposed by Vance. He has a defeatist attitude and claims it's not even possible for the US to ramp up production sufficiently. https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1826610932736282655#m

I continue to remind people that THAAD exists to bridge the gap in coverage between PAC-3 MSE & SM-3. Russia isn't firing MRBMs or IRBMs at Ukraine, so THAAD would be of little utility there. It has an engagement floor that Russia can exploit with low flying missiles. https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1845484774837682307#m

RT @John_A_Ridge: A U.S. THAAD deployment is not a permanent solution to Israel’s BMD requirements.
We already provide $500M annually for cooperative missile defense programs. It is incumbent on Israel to procure to the threat by expanding acquisition of Arrow fire units and reloads.

So by deploying THAAD to Israel, we're not really solving the problem, just incentizing Iran to build up more missiles. So what we are actually doing is tieing ourselves further into the Israel-Iran missile/BMD race for only short term benefits.

@John_A_Ridge: The April supplemental will cover some of that but at this rate more money is needed. Some members already called for Congress to return to pass another one.
