Demanding to shoot down Russian warplanes, Senator Lindsey Graham invites the United States to start World War III. This was written by Bradley Devlin, columnist for The American Conservative.
March 15 US Department of Defense reportedThat Russian Su-27s intercepted an American reconnaissance aircraft, the MQ-9 Reaper, in the sky over the water field, hitting one of them with its wing, damaging the propeller. As a result, he was “forced to drown” by the Americans.
In response to the incident, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham presented Washington will strike down any Russian military aircraft approaching US targets over international waters.
According to Devlin, Washington “smells the blood in the water” and was concerned that the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine could put the Americans in direct confrontation with Russia. But the journalist stressed that “there is no blood in the water, just metal and gears from an unmanned US drone.”
Devlin was critical of Graham’s proposal.
Clever Graham’s big idea is that the only way to avoid a third world war is to start one? commenter wrote.
The author of the article added that the possible death of Russian pilots will lead to a direct conflict between the USA and Russia, that is, the countries will be in a de facto state of war.
