Weapons for Ukraine’s Fight Against Russia Flow Through Small Polish Border Towns
WSJ ^ | 23-MAR-2022 | Drew Hinshaw

Posted on 03/24/2022 7:51:18 AM PDT by SpeedyInTexas

RZESZOW, Poland—Day and night, truck convoys rumble through once quiet Polish border towns and villages. Giant military transport planes land several times an hour on the single runway at a local airport. Their cargo: weapons for the Ukrainian forces fighting to beat back Russia’s invading army.

The U.S. and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies have been racing for weeks to deliver antitank missiles, air-defense batteries and other armaments in one of the largest international arms transfers since World War II. Hundreds of millions of dollars of weaponry has already been shipped.

The so called Nazis could not win even one seat of 450 in the Ukrainian parliament.

You have no way of knowing what the future may hold for these Nazis.

What do I have to do to make it clear to you, that I take neither side, thus my arguments are neither pro Russia nor are they pro Ukraine.

Instead, I am stressing my pro America stance that says we have too many problems at home to get involved in Ukraine.

But hey, I get it, you are not concerned about what is happening along our southern border and it makes you feel better to care for Ukraine. I get it.

“people like you are ignoring our problems and cheer-leading for a nation that is corrupt, and would not lift a finger to ever help us”

You’re cheerleading for corrupt Russia that would never lift a finger to help us, so maybe look in the mirror once in a while.

“they are not on ours”

Umm, I think you forgot that Alaska is part of the United States and is a direct neighbor to Russia.

Yes, they are different points. One point effects us directly, while the other point does not.

You know, I have not spoken my feelings with regards to whom I am debating, because personal attacks have no place in a debate.

So, for you to call me a Putin puffer just shows that you lack any real ability to debate in a rational way devoid of the ability to keep emotions out of the debate.

But I understand, you are much more concerned as to the killing going on in Ukraine, than you are with the invasion on our southern border. Even though the deaths have far exceeded the deaths in Ukraine. I understand where your real priorities really stand now.

Right. Because our southern border would have been closed by now if Russia didn’t try to invade Ukraine.
Whatever.

There you go again. I have clearly stated over & over again, that I am neither pro Russia nor pro Ukraine.

I am pro USA, and far more concerned about our focus being concentrated on our problems. For taking sides in the Russia-Ukraine mess is playing right into the hands of the globalist elites.

I am only asking for people to wake up to that fact. For that I am called things I am not because many here on FR are totally incapable of engaging in real debate, because too many are more into going with the mob mentality.

You remind me of leftists on this topic. You can be proud and happy I guess that you finally have something in common with leftists. They usually call me unpatriotic though, as if this conflict has anything to do with patriotism whatsoever.

My goodness, I never said that at all, so I have no idea where that came from. Therefore, I guess it was nothing more than your lame attempt of obfuscation.

But our southern border attack has been ongoing since Biden took office.

Thus, for me at least, it is the far more important issue facing us right now. It certainly is not supporting corrupt Ukraine, nor supporting corrupt Russia.

That’s Laugh Out Loud

I know, it's what hyenas do all night long. Now wake up and take issue to what I posted.

Look, Russia IS a threat to the United States.

Wrong. We are on their border, they are not on ours.

Ukraine poses NO threat to us. Ukrainians -the PEOPLE- are fighting for their freedom and independence.

Wrong again. Ukraine with the MSM globalists are trying to drag us into a war and are polluting the minds of 80% of Americans. The PEOPLE in Crimea and 2 republics want no part of it and denied their freedom.

They deserve our material support PERIOD

True. Russia is trying to sort out this mess like they did in Syria. All sanctions should be removed and Crimea recognized along with the 2 republics.

This is the democracy you are wasting your time on:

In the middle of a war, Ukraine has been stealthily working hard on being the first nation to implement virtually all the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Great Reset key hallmarks: Digital identity, Vaccination passports, Universal basic income (UBI), Chinese style Social credit scores which are all combined in their already operational Diia app. The country is transferring citizens’ power to the state and handing it over to the WEF and other Supranational organizations.

Warning: Ukraine is the Great Reset Laboratory of the Global Tech Elite

So, is that what you want for the US as well?

BTW, no one tells me what to do or when to do it.

However, I will be glad to move on, because really you have no rational argument, only an emotional one. That has hindered your ability to look at what is really transpiring over there.

So things are crossing the border at Krakovets, Hrushiv, and Hrebenne are the most likely border crossing points for the convoys? Gosh, I hope they don’t get blown to smithereens. The Reich must get it’s supplies!

Why would the FBI visit someone because they are talking about Poland and Ukraine? Is the USA is a war now? Are Americans supposed to be Ukrainian patriots? LOL

“Putin: General, I want you to fire hypersonic missiles at these small Polish border towns!”

No silly. You hit the convoys immediately AFTER they cross the border. You hit the bridges they must use. You hit the depots they deliver all the Raytheon products to.

Bullcrap. They bribed half of DC. Everything the Russians were accused of in the 2016 election, the Ukes actually did. They had a spy inside the White House and when Trump showed the slightest intent to investigate Ukrainian corruption with Biden, Vindman the spy immediately reported to the CIA and Pelosi causing Trump’s immediate impeachment. Ukrainian Nazis are a not a majority, but a significant force in their government that wields outsized power.
Ukraine deserves NOTHING from America...PERIOD.

“There was no “take out” in the offing. How was that supposed to proceed?”

Sure there was. The goal of the globalists is a color revolution in Moscow. In the last 6 months, we tried one in Kazakhstan and Belarus. We did a successful one in Ukraine. Hillary tried one in Moscow. A surprise NATO partnership agreement one day could make it impossible to ever deal with Ukraine for all time. So it was time to roll for Russia.

And then there is the pesky issue of Western Ukes and their artillery and nazi-lead ethnic cleansing of the eastern separatist regions.

Supporting sovereignty in the US and in Ukraine is consistent. They are not mutually exclusive as you imply. You are presenting a false choice.

And corruption exists in all governments, but it is no excuse to ignore atrocities and war crimes.

There is no way to “Color Revolution” someone if they are secure in their power and they have public support.
