    That is why they are deniable. It's anything they are told to do by their government and since they clearly support them to the point of financial stability it is whatever the report quotes as a "hugely sensitive environment and with a high level of political and military risk." We're not...

    Nope they wrote this shit. Plausible deniability. It is supposed to be deniable until it no longer isn't. https://books.google.com.hk/books/about/The_SAS_Deniables.html?id=EEmWzgEACAAJ&redir_esc=y https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/705847...

    When they did both it's quoted during both phases the commandos supported other discreet operations in a hugely sensitive environment and with a high level of political and military risk. High level of political and military risk. What deniable assets within the special forces do.

    They are. Deniable assets come in many forms this is one of them for the best deniable assets as quoted highly sensitive environment and with a high level of political and military risk...

    You're denying deniable assets are already in Ukraine. They are.

    That's what they say officially. Deniable assets are deniable for a reason.

    It is one? Country sends soldiers for reasons including taking control. The country getting attacked is recieving aid and more covert assistance. That's been done plenty of times in past when we only knew to kill each other with swords and spears.

    Lol I'll humor you. People like us used to get drafted and kill each other because we are told to do so by our leaders. It stopped working as much because many of us like to live and enjoy life rather than die in a shithole the appeal to patriotic duty is failing to get us marching into...

    No it's not. The tools of the trade playing proxy war dictates how both sides will respond with what they have and they did.

    Those are from world wars. This is a proxy one. Deniable assets are part and parcel to deny any boots on the ground.

    What happened before can happen again. It's even easier to see it with social media because both sides love to share their exploits on telegram.

    You would deny the same thing back in Vietnam with that spirit.

    It has? HIMARs are being sent. Target data from Western intelligence has been provided for Russian forces, the patriot missile defense system is shipped in and more deniable assets are sent in to volunteer and reinforce the Ukranian army.

    Embassies are agreed to be extraterritorial on paper. What does that have to do with the trend of sending military advisers escalating into more arms and more volunteers joining as deniable assets into a war?

    Do you not know what mission creep is? It has happened before starting with advisors sent to Vietnam.
