NATO soldiers in Ukraine?
Another “conspiracy theory” becomes conspiracy fact.
If they are being paid by the US taxpayers, what is the difference? I would guess the answer to that would be, we pay UN-kraine to pay our soldiers. That is how we do it, cutouts, and misdirection to lie to the American public.
Good point. It’s not like they are going to vote for his opposition. First Putin is always getting over 60% of the vote...often well over 60%. And their elections are actually more fair than USAs.
I could join a mercenary company based out of say France, and the Ukraine pays that company.
Our troops leads to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
No nudge-nudge, wink-wink.
It’s in your face to Putin.

Stephen Bryen, Senior FellowNext time some one throws around "CCP," it probably would be a good idea to double check. Assertions can be made so easily without any basis at all.From his bio: "Dr. Bryen was the founder of the Defense Technology Security Administration and served as a Deputy under Secretary of Defense and Director of DTSA during both Reagan administrations. He led the Defense Department’s efforts to halt the hemorrhage of western technology to the Soviet Union and China. He was the Pentagon’s spokesperson on technology security and led the Department’s efforts in Paris at COCOM and in other fora. He played a major role in halting the transfer of sensitive technology to Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Libya and was the principal player in establishing cooperative agreements with allied and friendly countries on the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI)."
How many american soldiers have already died there? Their families being informed of “training accident” that definitely wasn’t in ukr. For folks that want to be at war with russia we should have a special program where their own children and grandchildren provide the troops and they should pay war tax to fund it.
Newsweek just reported Ukraine is getting a “Defense Boost” from Israel.
Israel is doubling down its military support for Ukraine.
Israel will provide Ukraine with an early warning system against missiles as
part of Israel’s aid package for Kyiv, to assist in defending democracy from Russian aggression.
Any aid package from Israel to Ukraine is to be considered US aid since
US financial and military aid to Israel gets broad support in the US Congress
Military analysts say the transfer of large bombs to Israel illustrates the choices facing the Israeli military as it attempts to wipe out Hamas in Gaza, a tiny, densely populated ribbon of land that is home to more than two million Palestinians. Israel urged more than a million civilians to leave the northern part of the Gaza Strip to give its military a freer hand there, but tens if not hundreds of thousands of civilians have remained in the area.
The U.S. has transferred about 1,000 GBU-39 small diameter bombs to Israel to help dislodge Hamas from Gaza.

In Gaza, Hamas’s military wing also uses a vast network of underground tunnels, which Israel could attempt to strike with the bunker busters, analysts say. The tunnels however lie beneath Gaza’s urban landscape of apartment blocks, schools, hospitals, and other civilian buildings.
U.S. officials say Israel used an American-provided bomb with a large payload in one of the deadliest strikes of the entire war, an attack that leveled an apartment block in Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp, killing more than 100 people. Israel said the strike killed a Hamas leader.
“There is potentially a legitimate use for these things, to bust underground bunkers,” said Finucane, the former attorney-advisor at the State Department. “The problem is there’s a massive refugee camp with hundreds of thousands of civilians on top of those tunnels when you drop the bomb. You need to factor in the harm to civilians.”
The U.S. has also sent Israel roughly 57,000 155mm artillery shells—a key munition the U.S. has also provided Ukraine since the 2022 Russian invasion—along with thousands of other artillery shells and various small arms.
Even before the US armed the war in Gaza, the nation’s 155mm artillery rounds were in such short supply that the U.S. was forced to reach deep into its global stockpiles and turned to allies South Korea and Japan, among other countries, to provide more arms to Ukraine.

Four BCTs and they’d be in Vladivostok by Christmas.
Or maybe you think the Republican Guard, Line of Death, etc. were significant?
Same crap equipment.
Same crap logistics.
Same crap training
Same crap serf troops
Same crap motivation
Same crap results.
A nuclear war could ruin your whole day.
Not many of them have to work. They have a LOT.
I think anyone pushing war with the Russians, like you and the MIC, extremely foolish.
You completely failed to provide any evidence it is a “CCP propaganda site for the west” LOL. If anything you did the opposite. That’s a nice expression of prejudice and offering excuses for why you deny evidence you don’t want to hear though.

Moreover and especially, the material linked to about the article's author shows him to be a very well informed American patriot.
What it is about these threads, wherein people lose track of the discussion. Re-read the thread in its entirety.
Yep. That’s how it could be hidden if someone were trying to hide it.
My bad, I didn’t catch the back-and-forth. My apologies and thanks for your digging all that up.
Not a problem. Thanks for your message. And best wishes to you.
