So do something about it bitchface. Put your money where your mouth is.
It's like they they want their excuse to enter the war to be as flimsy as possible >

It would damage Russia to let Belarus to enter the war. >

They, (Russia), could blame Belarus for "incompetence" if something else goes wrong.
Plus they would have more cannon fodder to throw at Ukraine ... >

Belarus has nothing to offer in terms of war >

I don't know for sure, but they offer Russia 2 things.
1) More bodies to throw in the fire.
2) Some kind of made up legitimacy "look, another country doesn't like Ukraine, so we must be right" >

Army of Belarus is inept, badly trained and has weak morale. We will steamroall over everyone, who'll cross our border. >

So, just like the Russian army? >

They have somewhere around 20000 trained troops. Not enough to make strategic difference, not to mention that most will make a 180 degree turn and join Ukraine's Armed Forces. Lukashenko knows that and that's the reason he's still on the fence whether he wants to attack or not. >

I don't think he's on the fence, but he has to look like he's on the fence to stay in Putin's good graces.
If he agreed to go to war with his little army, he would quickly have no army (some would join Ukraine's forces, others would simply disappear)...and you don't want to be Russia's neighbor without an army. You know, just in case. >

That is correct. >

Russia shoots missiles over Belarus at Ukraine, Ukraine anti air shoots to intercept than Belarus possibly intercepts calls it an attack, sends mass troops to reinforce border before crossing >

"The damaged missle landed in Belarus, tripling the impoverished nation's net worth." >

Belarus has a GDP on par with South Dakota.  Russia, prior to last February, just below Texas.
For an interesting budget exercise, Russia's annual nuclear weaponry budget is slightly more than California spends on school lunches annually.
Ponder that next time Lavrov raves about nuking the world.  Do you think a US state's lunch budget could achieve it?  If not, feel free to chortle.
Source:  a bored engineer who has to run budgets for his department at a credit card firm.  And given we're near that lunch budget, I'm pretty sure we're nowhere near being a nuclear power. >

Keep in mind though, it's not quite a direct comparison.  $1 USD goes quite a bit further in Russia than it does in the US (if it doesn't get diverted by corruption). >

Well most of the expense is tritium top off at $30k a gram. And Regrinding the plutonium cores due to oxidation.  Sounds like less labor, more material. >

Grinding the cores would be labor-intensive.
Due to sitting over time, they’ll also need to do visual inspections, system tests, and component replacements. Rubbers and such degrade over decades. And that would just be for a standard launch vehicle; I’m not sure how much the radiation impacts the device but it’s not going to be negligible. The neutrons and gammas will slowly transmute any metals and degrade plastics and rubbers. >

Gamma exposure rapidly deteriorated my portfolio this year >

Ukraine firing a random ass missile into Belarus makes absolutely zero sense no matter how you look at it.
Also i dont think Belarus should start finger pointing who is firing missiles at who because there are literally videos of missiles being fired at Ukraine from Belarus since the start of the war. >

Ukraine fires missiles into a country
Ukraine blames Russia
NATO blames Russia 
The country also blames Russia 
Ukraine gains another ally in the war and forces another front for Russia to fight on
Also increases chance of larger scale escalation
However unlikely this is, still makes sense for Ukraine to do it lol >

It's unlikely an accident that the Russians invading Ukraine came from Belarus. >

Unlikely that a defensive weapon was fired by accident while russian terrorists were bombing Ukraine?! >

Russians are using c300 to bomb ground targets >

Yeah seems like they are running low on the proper stuff >

Sadly, but they still got lots of iranian drones and old soviet rockets - useless on battleground but great for terrorising civilians. >

They able to get the Iranian drones flying again? 
Last i remember seeing was it was tool cold and they werent working. >

Sadly, but they are flying again >

It was probably going after a missile fired at Ukraine from Belarus. >

Belarus won’t enter the war if they can absolutely avoid it. The military doesn’t want to. The soldiers don’t want to and if they do, the potential for the people the rise up and overthrow their despotic government would probably occur. >

Does Belarus want to experience life without a dictator?  This is the quickest way for that to happen, so go ahead and attack Ukraine.  Luka needs to go. >

Funny how such accidents happen when there's tens of thousands of Russian troops nearby staging for a new assault.  Russians are so accident prone. Very glad I'm not a Russian Insurance salesman. >

Poland please do everyone a favour and threaten Belarus. 
Someone just declare that any attack from Belarus is an open invitation for them to be bombed. Just simplify it and if Russia doesn’t like it and threatens nukes yet again, then they have their options. >

Was just thinking something like this.
Belarus "were gunna invade Ukraine cause of missile!"
Poland "Oh boy, Belarus is focused on the south for stupid reasons, let's get um. >

Am I the only one who is thinking: Lukashenko PLEASE enter the conflict, so that the Belarusian population and/or military can topple you and throw the Russian military OUT of Belarus. >


throw the Russian military OUT of Belarus.

Better yet - enter the war on Ukrainian side >

This is laughable after Belarus openly allowed Russian troops to invade from their territory. >

Who cares, Belarussian missiles are entering Ukraine all the time and bombing civilians. No accident there either. Ukraine should bomb the fuck out of you. >

And we would. How's Mazyr Oil Refinery Plant is doing? >

Yes Luka, you unelected fat sow, it’s well known countries start wars with the impressive first-salvo of one (1) spent anti-aircraft missile that lands in a field like a wet fart. Gtfoh. >

Oh fuck off and join the war already you fucking clowns. Everyone knows your justification will be bullshit. Just send your boys to get slaughtered and hopefully that piece of shit Soviet relic Lukashenko will go window shopping. >

If Belarus joins this, NATO needs to come in fast with a no fly zone and tell any troops that are in Ukraine without the consent of Ukraine will become targets in one fucking month. 
This is bullshit. No one stood up to Hitler early when it could have saved millions of lives! pootin has caused hundreds of thousands since this started already!  
I'm not saying attacking mother Russia or Belarus in their territory. Only their troops that are in Ukraine. Put a boot on their damn neck and end this senseless war. >

If Belarus enters the war on behalf of Russia, that green lights any 3rd party to enter on behalf of Ukraine. It ceases to be a two-party conflict and leaves the invitation open for further escalation. >

It doesn't really greenlight shit because Russia is a nuclear power and Ukraine is not. The calculus here really is that simple. >

Yeah, but it would be kind of funny to just release the exact same statements russia did in February and just find/replace Ukraine with Belarus >

World: No one cares about one anti-air defensive missile that landed in your field. >

My guess it entered Russian's province of Belarus's airspace to shoot down a Russian missile fired from Belarus.
