$60B for Ukraine?!?

Military defense is one of the few things tax payer money should be spent on, whether that's to prepare our own military or prepare the military of our allies who are killing our enemies for us. We should be modernizing our Nukes just like the Russkies and Chinese have been doing. We should be preparing for war so that there will be peace. It's western weakness in the first place that encouraged the Russians to invade, and now the Chinese may do the same to Taiwan before November per alleged leaks of a CCP meeting ordering China into a war state.

We could be in WW3 before the end of the year and you assholes will be sitting here blaming the USA for starting it!

This is the bizarro world CNN propaganda version of the grain situation. Below is a factually written piece. Btw, Russia is the world’s largest wheat exporter. If the world doesn’t want to starve, maybe the world leaders should exempt sanctions against importing Russian wheat, http://thesaker.is/grains-of-deceit/

Prepare our military! That’s rich. Did you look at the non military BS in that last $40B? Of course not, you warmongering neocons couldn’t care less. It’s war happening on our planet, it’s our business, right? How about the million dead Arabs, the 15,000 dead American boys you blood thirsty assholes are responsible for in the Middle East? You’re peddling the same Bushite garbage now that you were trafficking in the last 20 years as you idiots borrowed and wasted trillions. Now you hire a cluster Fs are toting water for Biden, Soros and the NWO in Ukraine. You warmongers live to send American boys and treasure to be wasted. Here’s a suggestion, get a plane ticket and save an innocent life. You want regime change in Moscow, YOU get a gun and go kill some Russians. Do Biden’s work YOURSELF, you’re so hot to be his stooge.

I don't know what pork BS is in the bill. Do you oppose the pork but support the weapons? If so, we're on the same page.

I have been consistent on Russia, if not on this forum, then everywhere else, for some 20 years now.

Russia is a mortal threat against the USA that has been preparing for a global conflict with us since the fall of the so-called Soviet Union.

All the same criminals that were running the Soviet regime arae still in control under modern Moscow.

They have robbed and brutalized their people, killed journalists, killed innocent women with bullets to the head, aided and supported our other enemies across the world: North Korea, Iran, China, the Latin communists, including terror groups like FARC. According to Alexandr Litvinenko, Russia trained a high level Al-Qaeda leader at an FSB base before 9/11 and was likely privy to the attacks.

I oppose Russia and support everything that harms Russia because I recognize that Russia is our mortal enemy. It's as simple as that. It has nothing to do with being a "NeoCon." I was one of the loudest and first Trump supporters on this website when this forum was still divided between Trump and Cruz. I don't think we even have NeoCons here other than a very small minority.

This isn’t honest journalism, it is blatant lying, and it misinforms the readers. They know they are lying. They know they are omitting key facts and recent developments.

_____________________________________
The article noting the Russian de-mining operation and the clearing of ships intentionally sunk by Ukraine, also stated that the Ukrainian freighters refused to leave. Don’t know if that has changed.

This article is shamelessly editorializing, as well.

“...to whom is the United States selling the oil, and wheat they have been stealing from Syria for years?”

Since when is Syria an exporter of wheat. If so, why is the wheat Russia released from Black Sea port and sent to Egypt which refused stolen wheat, now being sent to Syria and Lebanon?

*** Since when is Syria an exporter of wheat. ***

Syria was an exporter of wheat prior to the US invasion. How did you not know that?

Not only have we stolen their wheat, the US has burned fields,and via USAID imported inferior wheat seed infected with nematodes, and core rust. This will assure future crops post US war will become infected because of the diseases introduced into their soil.

Read up on the superior, drought tolerant, and ancient Syrian wheat. It is non GMO, and so precious there are seeds to preserve its survival stored in seed banks.

If WWIII does start in Ukraine it WILL be the fault of the illegitimate bastards in the White House and their warmongering enablers in the GOP. This would have settled through negotiations had your big guy not derailed the process. The Russians would have never moved on Ukraine had your big guy, Obama, Soros and the insanely destabilizing NWO hacks running NATO not pressed the most powerful and aggressive alliance the world has ever seen up to the Russian border, 300 miles from Moscow. Just what the hell do I do to prepare my 9 small grandchildren for war with Russia? Dig half way to China to protect them from blast, fallout and the feral humans left or just dig their graves? It will be neocon cowboys, like you, following their Bushite wet dreams, who get us all killed.

But the West DID try to negotiate with them, for the past 8 years, and gave Russia everything it wanted with regards to Minsk. This resulted in an invasion once Biden came to power since he was perceived as the weak President. "Negotiations," meaning a ceasefire with Russia, would result in the annexation of large chunks of Ukraine and a third invasion in a few years.

The psychology of how totalitarian regimes work should have been learned by you from your study of WW2, the Cold War, and virtually every agreement we've made with the Russians which they have violated in some fashion, whether it is on nuclear missiles, ABM systems, or the simple human decency expectation that you do not travel into a western country and murder people with Polonium 210.

NATO not pressed the most powerful and aggressive alliance the world has ever seen up to the Russian border

But they didn't. Ukraine's entry into NATO was years or even decades away. Again, as I've stated elsewhere, even to you, Ukrainian NATO membership would have been blocked by the Germans, French and probably the Italians considering how they are behaving today.

Since that was the case, what was the rush to invade Ukraine? Very simply, because Russia planned for a spring warfare and a quick defeat of Kyiv, and the NATO excuse was merely a pretext.

As for NATO in general: Russia has violated every agreement they have ever signed with us, and with their allies China, North Korea, Iran, etc., they have been steadily preparing for WW3 with their nuclear forces. Consequently, NATO never had a reason NOT to permit the entry of Poland, Lithuania, etc., into the alliance. Russia has never been a good faith party but has always been aggressive, deceitful and dishonorable, much like its posters here on FR.

300 miles from Moscow

In Kaliningrad, Russia placed nuclear weapons directly on the borders of NATO. Russian submarines and nuclear bombers routinely ghost our air space for years. Russians have placed anti-ship missiles just a few short miles off of Japan and have done joint Chinese-Russian exercises just miles off the Japanese coast, even just recently when China was threatening to nuke Japan.

Why is it okay for Russia, in cooperating with China, to threaten us and our allies with a nuclear holocaust but we can't have NATO?

Russia is a sworn enemy of America

News flash, the cold war ended in 1989 shortly after that the USSR broke apart into several nation states one of which is Russia. Russia is not the USSR and is not the sworn enemy of the American people. It is neocons that are the enemy of the American people. And the sooner every American realizes that the sooner the neocon threat can be dealt with.

The NeoCons didn't force the Russians to invade.

Offering NATO to the Ukraine was the line in the sand. And yes it was the neocons that pushed that.

Only if you're a Communist or one of Putin's NeoNazis. Most normal people do not recognize NATO as an aggressive pact, nor do they think Ukraine's entry into NATO was possible due to German/French opposition.

You haven’t been following Russian social media. They hate us. They hate Ukraine. They brag about their atomic weapons and their ability to “win” nuclear confrontations. There are are few sane voices but not many.

How childishly naïve. Russia's preparation for war, its enabling support of countries like China, Iran, North Korea, etc., did not end in 1989. They accelerated under the cover of "liberalization!" Meanwhile, all the same Communists remained in power in Russia, using new slogans and banners, but carrying out the same murders and crimes, and most of all all mouthing the same anti-Americanism. It is why you are Anti-American and anti-NATO today: because you got demoralized by Russian media.

I'm sure they do now, we (neocons like Bush the elder) treated Russia in the 1990s like the French treated Germany at the end of ww1. And we got the same result, a rearmed enemy that hates us. We must get the neocons out of power, they will be the death of us all.

While the Russians are as gang-rapey as their Serbian brothers and thus are worthy of bombing, no European country would ever agree to engage in a war with Russia.

What stupid little bizarro universe are you posting from? We gave the Russians everything they wanted: we reduced our nuclear stockpiles, our businessmen showered them with money and investment, our liberals declared the "end of history" as Russia immediately began using its new found wealth and the end of its isolation to begin the process of becoming strong enough to fight the USA.

Now Russia is THE single most powerful nuclear power on planet Earth after years of cheating and billions in investment despite having an economy smaller than Illinois, and they have achieved partnership and alliance with enemies like China, North Korea, and Iran, each of whom can be counted upon to join in a genocidal war against our nation.

Please explain where you are getting this bullshit about us persecuting poor little Russia?
