Pentagon press secretary John Kirby announced that the U.S. military is postponing a planned launch of Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile. Kirby said the move is in an effort to demonstrate that the U.S. has “no intentions of engaging in any actions that could be misunderstood” by Russia.

I’d rather have nuclear warfare than to just sit here and let Russia bully ukraine
U.S.DEPARTMENT OF TREASURY🇺🇸🦅 BLOCKED UKRAINE=KRISTO JESUS CHRIST
Pentagon needs to grow some balls and initiate the response for when there is a traitor in the WH!!
Americans r only powerful against muslims and Japanese
Peace comes through strength not weakness, the tree hugging attitude of Democrats in Washington are destroying America and allied nations.
Once again Biden and the Democrats are openly showing our weakness to Putin and the world. A show of force is what is needed… stop playing into Putin's hands..
hey it’s mother russia 😏🇷🇺
No one will win in a nuclear war.
SATAN 2 will stay in the silo for now.
so the USA had ICBM ready to be tested but because 🇷🇺 on Ukraine
Crisis so they delay it. smart USA
It mean it's ready to test or it finish
After all this week I was scared I could get wiped out of existence anytime. This has been the best reasonable decision not to escalate situations
Putin has used tactical nuclear weapons in Kyiv.
Our posture must be adjusted.
NATO troops have GPS and map grid coordinates, that can pinpoint any given location. Russian troops stop and ask civilians in the country they just invaded for directions.
Russia's bleeding edge fighter jet is "almost as good as the F-22". The F-22 is 20 years old and on phase out.
Ukraine looks like a porcupine with all of the failed Russian ordnance sticking out of buildings and the ground.
Russia tested its "hypersonic missile" and it crashed in their fishing waters. The reason Putin stopped bragging about it.
Post pone our test, I don't care. Delay the test 3 to 5 years if you want, it don't matter. We are so far ahead that this is trivial to me.
Anyone who engages in petty "debates" or aggression in favor of one corporate owned political party over the other corporate owned political party is not asking themselves the right questions that address the fundamental cause of our problems and is wasting their breath and energy that could be used to actually enact change instead of sh*tting on your neighbor. Put simply, you're getting cucked. This comment is too real and invasive of people's simplistic and self serving worldviews to actually get most people to take a moment to stop and consider why it's true.
America hasn't won a war since WWII. Let that sink in.
MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPEX
Describes the relationship between a country's military and the defense industry that supplies it, seen together as a vested interest which influences public policy. A driving factor behind the relationship between the military and the defense-minded corporations is that both sides benefit—one side from obtaining war weapons, and the other from being paid to supply them The term is most often used in reference to the system behind the armed forces of the United States, where the relationship is most prevalent due to close links among defense contractors, the Pentagon, and politicians. The expression gained popularity after a warning of the relationship's detrimental effects, in the farewell address of President Dwight D. Eisenhower on January 17, 1961.
In the context of the United States, the appellation is sometimes extended to (), adding the U.S. Congress to form a three-sided relationship termed an "iron triangle". Its three legs include political contributions, political approval for military spending, lobbying to support bureaucracies, and oversight of the industry; or more broadly, the entire network of contracts and flows of money and resources among individuals as well as corporations and institutions of the defense contractors, private military contractors, the Pentagon, Congress, and the executive branch.
Yall still letting that media scare you?
No nukes,no nukes, no nukes….lol
cowards
thank you Nato and US to be so coward and weak against the bully, thank you for not protecting people of Ukraine but increasing your own defense budget and hiding behind women and children of Ukraine, we remember your inaction, world's watching and remember it
911, Iraq, boston bombing,, school shootings,, Covid lockdowns, Ukraine invasions and now we are being prepared for….
Yes you may awake when the nuclear bomb exploded in kitchen that is the of unpreparedness!
R.N.P. It’s too bad you have to cower in fear of the I.R.Ps of the world, and refuse to help the people whom you tempted with talk of freedom. They gave up their nuclear weapons, only to have the man you are so afraid of threaten you silence. Wait, I forgot, your burning huge piles of dollars, and your gonna keep burning those piles of dollars until Putin flees with his tail between his legs. It’ll be a cold day on the Russian steppe when that happens. And what will be left of Ukraine. Whatever amount is left, it will likely be more than the sum total of our credibility as a partner for freedom and democracy. The new Uncle Sam poster should read, “When you need us the most, we’ll come running at the speed of sanctions.”
Chickens 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why should we alter our normal and required development to appease Putin?
USA EMPIRE OF LIE! MOVE OUT NATO FROM EUROPE AND U WILL SURVIVE !! USA THINK IS A JOKES…
this is a signal for russia to abandon nuclear weapons now and forever to become a part of the world again mark my words when negotiations start
Good decision, never escalate
I am worried about the Space Lab.
No one needs to have nuks period!! If they can't be used why have them???
Project more weakness please
SMART MOVE U.S
exact best move on cancelling missile testing, BUT
Send War Supplies immediately into Ukraine Now to defend the capitol. Stop waiting.
Putin will use the strategic advance and Ukraine flow of energy to twist NATO's arm.
BASIC WAR PRINCIPES. you CANNOT have a leader of a nuclear capable nation afraid of another leader threatening NUKES.
MAD only works, when other nations DO NOT BACK DOWN from threat of nuclear attack. Otherwise, only the rogue nation needs nukes.
threatening nuclear assault is the same level of terrorist attack on sovereign soil as crashing jet airliners through sky scrapers.
ONE tyrant is high-jacking the world because you are forgetting your basic war principles.
Hitler (Putin) has committed war crimes against humanity as sanctioned by U.N. 11th Emergency Meeting and you are asking Hitler's permission to do something.
Please, listen to sanity. DO NOT LET UKRAINE FALL! or one man will draw fingers in the sand for destiny of the planet.
Mother Russia
NUKE KYIV 💥
Mother Russia knows how to Fight
👊💥🌟👊💥✨🙈👊💫🙊
Why are people scared of drying it a natural process. No one gets out alive. But don't hide in fear. Ukraine is not . so why the big bad USA and EU.
🤣🤣🤣Fricking. Chicken 🐔.
Even my dog knows that you don’t have any intention of nothing.
For that reason your enemies are doing what they are doing
They know that in this fight the referee is going to turn the face to the other side 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t going to cut my garden grass like always,because my neighbor is crazy ?
🤣🤣🤣
"They got money for war, but can't feed the poor." – Tupac
Grown ups are back in the room.
Who will misunderstand? what is Biden afraid of?
We have to follow-up with the missile test outside Ukraine, provide AGM 65s and 88s to kick putins hairy @$$. Don't forget Russia paid the taliban to execute American soldiers.
And why for years you allowed all the russia immigrants in the usa ! Tomorrow they will ask for briten beach russia republic in ny !
