UK’s David Cameron presses US for Ukraine funding: Putin could ‘be back for more’
The Hill ^ | 12/07/2023 | LAUREN IRWIN

United Kingdom Foreign Secretary David Cameron pressed U.S. lawmakers to pass funding for Ukraine because Russian President Vladimir Putin could “be back for more.”

“This is an investment into the success, and the worst thing in the world would be to allow Putin a win in Ukraine, not just because that would be bad in itself, but he’d back for more,” Cameron, a former U.K. prime minister, said on CNN.

Senate Democrats introduced a roughly $111 billion national security package requested by President Biden providing aid to Ukraine and Israel and security at the southern border, but the Senate voted Wednesday and failed to reach the 60-vote threshold, ultimately blocking the proposal from coming up for consideration.

They are getting truly pathetic with their asinine Putin-mongering.

Reminds me of the old card-sharps and shell-game scammers in Times Square before Guiliani cleaned them out: “You already won man! Just put yo money in!”

What the heck is going on here?

I have never seen such desperation to keep such massive funding running for anything.

Cameron is a greasy floater that never properly flushed:

MPs deliver damning verdict on David Cameron's Libya intervention
September 14, 2016

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/14/mps-deliver-damning-verdict-on-camerons-libya-intervention

David Cameron’s intervention in Libya was carried out with no proper intelligence analysis, drifted into an unannounced goal of regime change and shirked its moral responsibility to help reconstruct the country following the fall of Muammar Gaddafi, according to a scathing report by the foreign affairs select committee.

The failures led to the country becoming a failed a state on the verge of all-out civil war, the report adds.

“Russia is the second-strongest army in Ukraine” vs. “Russia will conquer all of Europe if it’s not stopped in Ukraine”

The daily retarded rhetoric tug-of-war.

Putin had agreed to leave Ukraine as it was before the incursion in March of ‘22. The only concession he required was no more incredibly destabilizing Uke NATO crazy talk. The Ukes had agreed. The DC globohomos and their neocon fellow travelers said NO. Now the war is lost, NATO is giving the Ukes the brush off, 400,000 more Uke boys are dead, Putin has Donbas and any other part of eastern Ukraine he wants and it will be an unconditional surrender to the Russians. The corrupt world policeman thug screwed the Ukes as badly as he did the Iraqis, Afghans and Indochinese.

You have no idea what you’re talking about.
Putin demanded that we withdraw from all firmer Soviet currently NATO countries.
Putin is an insane mass murdering pig who has no business invading Ukraine but fools like you cover for his murder and destruction.

And btw your friend P unleashed Hamas on Israel. He is a clear threat to everything good.

And I’m sick of nonsense about “globohomos” which has zero to do with the invasion of Ukraine.

Putin could ‘be back for more’

~~~

THE BOOGEYMAN COULD COME FOR YOUR NEXT!!!

Don’t get me wrong, I am no Putin apologist and invading Ukraine was definitely not right. But I just heard Biden saying the same thing recently. “He wont stop with Ukraine”

Yeah well, he might not, but Ukraine isn’t a NATO member, and almost anywhere else in that region is, and Russia doesn’t look to be in much shape to extend their military on grand, distant wars, so they would need a lot of time (years) to regroup and rebuild. So what does that have to do with passing a budget this week???

Nothing.
What it’s all about is keeping the cash cow milking

Maybe some of you should read and listen to the British Secretary’s words, rather than please yourselves with your slogans that have nothing to do with the security of this nation.

The Brits need to keep their lies straight—they said Putin was already dead.

If you could bottle up your hate for Putin and focus it on Biden and the Democrats...

You would be swatted and counting cockroaches in a cell next to the J6ers.

Think about it.

“ Putin is our enemy. By his own many words and actions.

************************************************************

Russia is not damaging me or my family or taking anything from us. Ukraine on the other hand is taking a never ending river of America’s dwindling wealth. Every penny that Ukraine takes from us is added to our growing national debt. That national debt is costing us over a trillion dollars a year to service. That servicing cost will only grow as our existing “low” interest debt rolls over to higher interest debt.

So go scream ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’ at your globalist friends … I’m weary of having that shouted at me.

Biden is the one threatening conservatives with nuclear attack.

Senate Dimocrats introduced dimwit Biden’s so-called $111 billion
“national security package,” US tax dollars to Ukraine and Israel for THEIR security.

Also includes $14B for Biden’s cockeyed version of “border security”......
facilitating the entry of even more illegals at the southern border.

The Senate voted Wednesday and failed to reach the 60-vote threshold,
ultimately blocking the proposal from coming up for consideration.
