Daily Mail, 6/2/25:

The Pentagon review determined that stocks had become too low on some previously pledged munitions, and that some pending shipments now would not be sent, said a US official who spoke on condition of anonymity, according to Politico, which first reported the halt of military aid.

'The strength of the United States Armed Forces remains unquestioned - just ask Iran,' Kelly said, making a reference to the recent US bombings and missile strikes against the Islamic republic's nuclear facilities.

The United States will halt some key weapons shipments to Ukraine that were promised under the Biden administration in a devastating blow to Kyiv.😀

“Russia is having so much trouble that they needed North Korean troops to help them attack Ukraine. “

They used to have Storm Z where prisoners were given pardons if they survived suicide missions.

They replaced it with Storm V where the prisoners are returned back to jail.

"Imagine the fools who believe DC, London, the EU, and the Nazis in Ukraine are trying to spread freedom in the world. Period"

Zelensky closed Russian-connected Orthodox churches, banned opposing political parties, nationalized tv stations, bans elections, bans men the ages of 18-60 from leaving the country, authorizes Ukraine to withdraw from the Ottawa Convention which bans the use of landmines, bans place names connected to Russia, and bans Russian language culture.

Sounds more like Nazi Germany every day.

> The British Army would stop him. <

The British Army is a sad shell of its former self. It now has more horses than tanks. I wonder if they’ll resort to cavalry charges. If so, they’d do well to remember the failure of the famous Charge of the Light Brigade.

(Which was, interestingly enough, against a prepared Russian position in the Crimea.)

"The British Army would stop him."

With what? They've got more horses than they have tanks. More pilots than they have planes, and more Admirals than they have ships.

"It took Stalin almost 10 years to suppress the anti-communist guerillas in the Baltics, southern Poland and Ukraine. And they fought with no hope of victory."

Stalin was only one of many who fought over the same land where Ukrainians and Russians (and North Koreans), are now dying by the hundreds each week. The slaughter goes back to WWI and long before that. As H.G. Wells once said of the Balkans, it is an area which produces more history than they can consume locally.

They would be kept on a very tight leash as they are in Russia.

Which is it? They aren’t a super power and we needn’t bother, or they are such a threat to the world we already killed and maimed MILLIONS, and have to risk BILLIONS dying in a nuclear Holocaust to stop them? Because we are doing the latter, and have enriched the globalists and chained ourselves as forever debt slaves playing this f’d up game.

There are millions of Muslims in the UK. I’m sure they would support any war effort.

Yet every day Russia takes more of Ukraine.

Those long range attacks aren’t being effective enough

According to NATO and the EU, he is ready to conquer Western Europe. Some NATO countries are preparing their people for war with Russia, including the British.
