A question I don’t get.. IF POLAND is willing to send Migs to Ukraine, why do they need to send them first to Germany? Poland and Ukraine both share a border. Just fly them down into Ukraine.

You pose a good question. The way I see it, Poland wants direct US involvement which they would get by using their MiGs.

Poland is not stupid enough to go this alone. They want Joe Biden to put down his pudding and declare war. War with Russia.

Poland doesn’t want to risk Russian military action so they prefer to have the US hold the bag on the transfer. Poland made the offer to send them to Germany to a US base the other day and the Biden Gang said No.

It’s an act of war. Poland will give them to us, but does not want to commit an act of war. What is telling, is that our military rejected the offer. It appears that we don’t want to either.

The Poles are not willing to send Mig’s to the Ukraine.

They’re willing to give those old planes to the US so CornPop can give them to the Ukrainians.

The whole sordid story.

Ukraine Worked With Democrats Against Trump
in 2016 to Stop Putin. The Bet Backfired Badly.

Posted on 3/10/2022, 8:11:28 AM by FarCenter

Six years ago, before Russia’s full-scale invasion of their country, the Ukrainians bet that a Hillary Clinton presidency would offer better protection from Russian President Vladimir Putin, even though he had invaded Crimea during the Obama-Biden administration, whose Russian policies Clinton vowed to continue.

Working with both the Obama administration and the Clinton campaign, Ukrainian government officials intervened in the 2016 race to help Clinton and hurt Trump in a sweeping and systematic foreign influence operation that’s been largely ignored by the press. The improper, if not illegal, operation was run chiefly out of the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington, where officials worked hand-in-glove with a Ukrainian-American activist and Clinton campaign operative to attack the Trump campaign. The Obama White House was also deeply involved in an effort to groom their own favored leader in Ukraine and then work with his government to dig up dirt on – and even investigate — their political rival.

Ukrainian and Democratic operatives also huddled with American journalists to spread damaging information on Trump and his advisers – including allegations of illicit Russian-tied payments that, though later proved false, forced the resignation of his campaign manager Paul Manafort. The embassy actually weighed a plan to get Congress to investigate Manafort and Trump and stage hearings in the run-up to the election.

As it worked behind the scenes to undermine Trump, Ukraine also tried to kneecap him publicly. Ukraine’s ambassador took the extraordinary step of attacking Trump in an Op-Ed article published in The Hill, an influential U.S. Capitol newspaper, while other top Ukrainian officials slammed the GOP candidate on social media.

Snip
