Although the US didn't inform Israel about the deal they made with Yemen and the Houthis.Nobody suggested asking permission. However, it is protocol to inform those nations you consider allies. Israel for instance always informed the US, the UK, and France just before strikes on Iran, and in the past, Iraq. Same with the raid on Entebbe.
yawn...Its funny how quickly you bought, then immediately abandoned, this talking point.
That's a nice attempt at distraction; however we were talking about advance notice of military strikes, not deals to stop an ongoing strike. The Houthis said "uncle" and the strike ended.Although the US didn't inform Israel about the deal they made with Yemen and the Houthis.
"Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar stated that the United States failed to inform the Israeli government of the agreement with the Houthi terrorists announced on May 6 by President Donald Trump, under which Washington ceased airstrikes in Yemen.
"We didn't receive any advance notice. That's all you can say," Saar said, when asked about the US announcement in an interview published
The point is that it's untrue to say that countries always inform allies of military matters...they don'tThat's a nice attempt at distraction; however we were talking about advance notice of military strikes, not deals to stop an ongoing strike. The Houthis said "uncle" and the strike ended.
You are winging it and not doing well.The point is that it's untrue to say that countries always inform allies of military matters...they don't
Jamming did not work because they drones were autonomous and powered by AI. The AI in them was "trained" at a Ukrainian air museum where they had examples of the soviet aircraft that were targeted.This breakthrough hit was both a surprise and a shock for which there was no defensive awareness and counter armament.
For instance, the drones overcame jamming functions at the Russian airbases that run continuously. Now the Pentagon and Congress know this about these drones and jamming functions. The US can find out from Ukraine whether the drones overcame jamming by being manually controlled, and if so, whether that was the sole reason or a reason. The point is of course the US will know what to expect.
We know that typically in each attack the truck with the drones was parked well outside the ground security zone of the air base. While the air security zone is much greater the drones avoided or defeated being intercepted. We know this now and only because this unanticipated breakthrough attack has occurred. This now can be addressed by consulting with Ukraine and perhaps by the invention and application of US specific counter technology and operational personnel competency.
Which means your post just isn't scary.
The targets were legitimate military ones and Russia was using those airplanes to launch cruise missiles that kill Ukrainian civilians. Flynn's criticisms only reveal where his allegiances are. He should be in jail and would be if Trump had not pardoned him. The fact that Ukraine pulled this off without any help from the west shows how quickly Ukraine has embraced innovations that will revolutionize warfare. We need them on our side for sure.To the contrary, although the ego driven in the administration may be offended; by NOT telling the US of its plans and intentions IT makes it clear to Russia that the US didn't approve or participate in the operation.
They did themselves and US a favor by taking sole responsibility.
But hey, I'm sure there are those looking to be offended anyway.

You have students? Now that's scary shit.This is some scary shit, man. I used to show it my students.
I wonder how many Christian Nationalists are at Ukraytheon?Michael Flynn goes local to spread Christian nationalism
How Michael Flynn goes local to spread Christian nationalism
VENICE, Fla. (AP) — It was less than three weeks before the Sarasota County, Florida, school board election when the former White House national security adviser weighed in on the local political race.apnews.com
It was all over the news.
So you mean... The Ukrainians didn't post it on a Signal chat?That's a nice attempt at distraction; however we were talking about advance notice of military strikes, not deals to stop an ongoing strike. The Houthis said "uncle" and the strike ended.
yawn...
Here you go again. Making this about me. And spouting bullshit, too.
Bye.
Why would Ukraine need to ask for permission before launching strikes?
Of course, NOBODY in the entire world has ever accused Zelensky of being wise.
Trump is a dwarf compared to Zelensky.
Trump hates Zelensky because Z is 100x more the man Trump is.
Zelensky is this century's Churchill. Trump is this century's Chamberlain.
Of course, because Mike Flynn cares more about Russia being stung than Ukraine defending itself.
"Breech of protocol," what a joke. Was it a breech of protocol when Trump concluded it was wise to try to negotiate with Putin while claiming Zelenskyy was responsible for the whole thing?

A whole lot more than are at the Hollow, that's for damn sure.
So you're fiercely supporting one set of Christian Nationalists over another?
Slava Ukraytheon.
Trump hasn't been treating Ukraine as an ally since he got into office.
So Zelensky trolling the White House for weapons during two US presidents is not seeking to be allied?First, that presumes the US and Ukraine are bilateral allies, a role rather clouded since Trump took office and
Last I checked, Russia has not been a US Allie since WW2.Finally, the US has not always provided Russia, EVEN UNDER TRUMP, with prior notification of its military actions:
Trump merely called Zelensky down on his lack of protocol and initial unwillingness to agree to the concept of a ceasefire if it could be worked out.Trump hasn't been treating Ukraine as an ally since he got into office.
None said that Russia formally was, although for Trump he "had a great relationship" with Putin wherein he often treated him like he was on most occasions, save for the instances I cited.So Zelensky trolling the White House for weapons during two US presidents is not seeking to be allied?

Trump thinks he can rewrite history because he won the election. History does not change and Russia did interfere in the 2016 election to help Trump. The only Russian hoax is that they didn't interfere and Manafort didn't give internal polling information to a Russian agent.Mike Flynn agreed to a plea deal with the DOJ for "willfully and knowingly" making false statements to the FBI about the his communications with Russian Ambassador Kislyak. Two weeks before sentencing, Flynn withdrew his guilty plea. At AG Bill Barr's direction, the Justice Department filed a court motion to drop all charges against Flynn. Donald Trump pardoned Flynn on 25 November 2020.
The Trump II DoJ headed by Pam Bondi shut down the DoJ unit that investigates Russian attacks on the US and our elections. The same happened at the FBI under Kash Patel.
And MAGAts wonder why Zelenskyy elected to not share info about Operation Spiderweb with TACO.
And then we have this.....
Report on Russia's 2016 US election meddling disappears from Senate website
"No results found" was the message on the intelligence.senate.gov webpage.www.newsweek.com
