Foreigners who place their trust in the promise of the United States to have their back apparently are unaware of the fate of Vietnamese, Libyans, Cambodians, Afghanis and Iraquies who believed Washington’s promises. When the going gets tough, the U.S. says adios.
The following video cartoon is a canary in the mineshaft. While the West is scrambling to blame Ukraine for the failed counter offensive, some in the Ukraine are pushing back against that narrative by correctly noting that the pledge of Washington and NATO to give them the weapons systems needed to beat back the Russian offensive is nothing more than lip service. I’m providing two versions — youtube and Rumble (just in case youtube tries to quash the video).
* the video has had me laughing for an hour- a must see.
With no success on the battlefield Ukraine is opting for the drone hail Mary — i.e., attacking a couple of Russian ships with maritime drones. These attacks are pin pricks with no strategic significance in terms of diminishing Russia’s military power. However, these attacks are likely to inspire the Russian General Staff to look at attacks on NATO ISR operating over the Black Sea because of the role played by Western aerial surveillance in providing Ukraine with intelligence needed to attack those two Russian vessels. In addition, these attacks are likely to stiffen Russia’s resolve to impose a de facto embargo on Ukrainian ports in the coming weeks.
I wonder when the London bookies will start offering betting opportunities predicting Zelensky’s fall from power or the Ukrainian military’s withdrawal from the battlefield? That is another marker that is a better predictor of the course of the war in Ukraine than any of the nonsense being published by British intelligence or the Institute for the Study of War.

American involvement in the war in Ukraine may be because of Joe Biden’s son Hunter..... repayment for a $5 million bribe,” said a presidential candidate speaking at a campaign event.
The Ukraine payment to Hunter Biden was corrupt b/c it has some relationship towards Biden’s posture toward Ukraine......and expenditures of huge amts of tax dollars to Ukraine.
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., has claimed he was told by a whistleblower about a tip regarding a $5 million payment from a foreign national to then VP Joe Biden and another $5 million to a family member “relating the exchange of money to buying the VP’s policy decisions.”
Republicans later identified the family member as Hunter Biden, who served at the time as an attorney and million dollar a year board member of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company.

Is Russia Awakening To The Likelihood That It Will Be Tossed Under The World’s Bus?
Two weeks later
Right, that's why 45+ nations are sending Ukraine weapons, "records" and not the fact that Putin has gone rogue threatening the existence of eastern European nations.
Russia doesn't seem very frightened by your collection of transvestites, child molesters and erstwhile misfits in the West.
What have you done with my country?
One of the comments was “But the American MIC is raking in the profits. And that’s the important thing!”
Africa, Asia, and Islam have no love for the West. (Minus Japan)
Some side with us, for now.
We’re stronger now, but for how long?
How’s our culture doing?
Military recruiting?
Demographics is destiny.
Ukraine has already been destroyed.
More than half of the surviving population have left (as refugees) and are not coming back. Jews mostly to Israel, others mostly to western Europe.
Your defense of Biden's scam of a war is admirable- for a leftist.
Now do the same for illegal immigration and how successful Biden was in Afghanistan....
There is an eerie feeling of deja vu that comes over me when I read stuff like this.
Hear, hear!

So are Poland, Romania, Moldova, Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania awakening.
We have been smacked pretty hard by the Russians in Ukraine, Taiwan could sometime soon vote in a PRC China-tolerant government, we left 80 billion in weapons when we fled from Afghanistan, just got asked to leave Sudan, and now DeSanctimonius wants to beat up on Niger for the French?
Is there a disaster of a war that you don’t like?
I guess all those bodies coming back from Vietnam and all the soldiers suffering from toxins and gas must have been the fault of the TV set
“Is Russia Awakening To The Likelihood That It Will Be Tossed Under The World’s Bus?”
All those nations begging to join BRICS shows otherwise
Robert McNamara disagreed.
The sooner the better.
Hate to say that, given all the Ukrainians that have lost their lives, families destroyed, towns/cities/villages destroyed, forced to flee because of the violence, because of the puppet masters in the US, US State Dept, EU and NATO, decided to play games and steal some money.
But the sooner that crap is over, the better for all parties concerned.
And I’m betting that the areas that Russia holds on to, will be in far better shape in the future than the ruins in Ukraine.
So how many of our soldiers were injured or killed in Ukraine when the russians "smacked" us "pretty hard"? Idiocy
