Now THIS! Is what the Ghost of Keeeeev was waiting for!
That is my take as well.
It is “now or never” for China—there is a good chance the US will never be this weak again for many decades.
They may choose “never” for their own reasons—but the current crop of DC clowns has significantly raised the probability that they choose “now”.

Your sentence makes no sense / is jumbled.
Could you please rephrase that? I would like to understand what you are trying to say.

Great. More expensive toys for the Russians to blow up or confiscate.
My typing skills need improvement and I need to proofread what I type.
They spent two hours talking about an attack on America, except the attack would not come from Russia, the attack would come from China.
Anybody who watched the entire 2 hours either comes away feeling the situation is very scary or Steve Bannon and the people on the show are full of BS.
Unless someone can present a coherent summarization of this two-hour discussion, including a bullet-list of, say, five plausible reasons why this might happen and a couple of semi-plausible scenarios as to how it might happen, I'm wagering that it is the usual BS.
Regards,
Watch the show for yourself, don’t wait for someone to give you a summary which you will probably have questions about, it’s a waste of time, watch the episode.
Either you will believe it or not, it’s up to you.
Hour 1 of the show.
Hour 2 of the show.
Who’s training the Ukies to use these weapons? And how long does it take for the Ukies to learn to use these weapons? So many of these news are propaganda for those who want to continue this war that will decimate Ukraine.
Who really benefits? That’s what we need to find out.
M-777 is designed to shoot and scoot. You’re nuts if you think the Russkies don’t have trajectory tracing radar.
Who really benefits? Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, Poland, and the United States all benefit if Russia can be defeated in the Ukraine. The Ukraine itself more than benefits. It would survive as an intact country. And the Donbas would be saved from the Russian savages who illegally occupy my wife’s hometown.
I think you misspelled "willingness to give them whatever they demand."
Both nations have imperial ambitions, and are not willing to be simply talked out of it. But they'd certainly like the rest of the world to play the Chamberlain card and wrongly believe that talk is enough.
“I have a suspicion that it is not being replenished.”
From many peoples point of view, that is a good thought.
Here is a text from congress with the spending thoughts applied to procurement for the military for 2022:
https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/4350/text
Not section 4101 about two thirds down the bill where it identifies spending for each branch under TITLE XLI—PROCUREMENT.
There is not a lot of other than “at best of” replacing most of what we are giving away. And that is determined by congress and not the military which has to make a silks purse out of a sows ear. And I do mean giving as the Ukraine has no defense commitments with us except what Biden has tossed into their mix.
All this is is funding the new Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Kosovo, and a number of little countries that don’t pertain to us that we got into. And I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t go meals on wheels for both countries going at it when it is over. And we will foot the bill to both countries repairing the damage done as we are like the gun companies when guns don’t kill people unless it is determined by liberals and chicken skit conservatives. That money is still not talked about. And that will stop payment on arms or social security cause with the financial problems we have, they’ve got to get it somewhere.

What is to stop Russians from targetting these positions from the air? How about the trains, trucks and boats of these weapons? It is a matter of time before the West is sending my grandsons and daughters to fight for ?????????? Tell me why they SHOULD fight for NATO?
Every time we go into a war/conflict/regime change situation, we end up creating a worse situation. If Russia fails, you can bet whomever takes charge there is going to be more anti-West, and full of righteous hatred. Can you blame them? Of course the people who disagree with Putin, will flee to our country...WIN/WIN for extremism.
Are you saying we are sending money to Vietnam?
This artillery will be in the hands of the Russians very soon. If the Taliban can get 85 billion of US military hardware, believe me the Russians will get everything we send to Ukraine.
Chimcom attacks on American State’s Soil are stuff of fiction movies except for possible small scale raids upon outliers like in Alaska and maybe Hawaii.
