EUROSATORY 2024 — Northrop Grumman plans to produce medium caliber ammunition inside Ukraine under a project bankrolled by Ukrainian dollars, a company official said today.

Although several European defense firms have committed to large-scale manufacturing programs inside Ukraine’s borders, Northrop’s coproduction agreement is the first publicly acknowledged deal between a US defense prime and the Ukrainian government for a manufacturing project inside Ukraine.

“Ukrainian dollars, or US taxpayer dollars?”

LOL. I guess the Neocons hold out this carrot to make sure that the Ukraine Government doesn’t stop sending their people in the Meat Grinder. After all, they still have millions more men who are not yet dead.

Make sure to put a “Baby Milk” sign in front so the Russians can find it easily.

Must be “shovel ready jobs” because at the end of the day the money laundering (well, sonofabitch) operation known as Ukraine will kill and bury a lot more people before Biden gets kicked to the curb.

Apparently, none of the idiots involved ever watched the movie WarGames.....

There is no question that the Russians will not bomb it immeditely.

And then what?

We will use that as a Gulf of Tonkin.

There are so many living veterans of that war, and many of them in positions of power, that must understand what is happening. Why do they silently sit on their asses?

This is the beginning of a madness that once begins will not end until we are destroyed.

Maybe if we’re lucky, the whole world will simultaneously turn on their political leaders. After the satisfaction of having that happen, God can come in and wipe the slate clean. Of course, US citizens would probably be the one group sitting on the sidelines.

The neocons must’ve infiltrated Northrup too, and now they want to establish a neocon branch in Ukraine. The Northrup Zeepers will be handling the weapons factory to be established there.
