СВР РФ?, Lockheed Martin?, CIA? (for some strange reason known only to them and God) "That's a nice little armaments facility you have dere. It'd be a shame if somethin' happened to it."

General Dynamics is not Lockheed Martin. There are lots of defense production facilities that are at risk. Each of them has their own (frequently unique in the world) capability to produce something that is needed for the military inventory and would take years to recreate.

“And the rocket’s red glare, gave proof through night, that the flag was still there…” pyrotechnics, another name for Fourth of July fireworks displays, how appropriate…Seems there was another such incident in 2021 at their Canadian plant in Quebec.
What, with $43 billion in sales, employees of over 100,000 in 45 countries, that’s a pretty big multinational company with a heap of a lot of influence in global matters…

Yup… our clueless “leaders” are going to be taught some lessons in the meaning of horizontal escalation. (In Mr. Rogers voice): “Boys and girls, can you say Marshal Rokossovski?”

A high level decision has been made by the US and many of its allies to very soon allow the Ukraine to use Western weapons, including long-range missiles, to attack targets located within Russia’s internationally recognized borders. So, once again so much is connected to the Ukraine, and the tensions that existed before the 2014 Orange Revolution, and the deadly Maidan Square massacre in Kiev.

Any decision to take the conflict to a higher, more intense level, would mean the erasure of one of the brightest “red lines” that has existed since February 24, 2022, and signal the direct entry of the US and its NATO bloc into yet another war against Russia.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has already made a similar appeal, but he would not have made such statements if the issue had not already been considered on a practical level and had not received substantial support from his backers in Swampington D.C. All these decisions come at a time where rising tensions between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah have also escalated. Thrown into the boiling pot are several other ‘hot zones’ around the globe, the expansion of a BRICS alliance and a Person could easily conclude the highly likely opportunity for yet another Global War.
