Former Marines weapons inspector, and fierce campaigner against nuclear war, Scott Ritter was asked about the attempted drone strikes on the Kremlin tonight on his “Ask the Inspector” program. His answer was harsh: the Ukrainians had said in advance that they were going to put a drone on the Kremlin for May 9, and now they have done so. A confession, in his judgment, similar to Joe Biden announcing that Nord Stream would be stopped if Russia invaded Ukraine, before Nord Stream was blown up.
What should Russia do? I am not a Russian, Ritter answered. But I can assure you that if a drone hit the White House, the people who sent the strike would not continue to exist. End of story. They would be wiped out. Think about it, he urged. The Kremlin was hit. He repeated: The Kremlin was hit. Do you understand what that means?
A response will come, he added, but the Russians will not bomb before a full investigation is carried out.
