We are helping Ukraine fight Russia so we don’t have to. Russia is the same aggressive brutal society that it was under the Soviets. I think sending weapons to help Ukraine win is the best way to insure that Russia will no longer be an aggressive pain in the neck. Ukraine is not a surrogate they are fighting for themselves and everyone else should see that helping them is in the collective interest.

Somehow Ukraine is using our credit card for the weapon of the week club membership.

Just no. Russia can't even defeat Ukraine that lives next door to them.

Trump had them well confined and would do it again.

We are there because western nations want this war.

STOP! ENOUGH! WHAT WAR?

No pictures that don’t look like stock footage from WWII, no on the ground live reports, no video.

I watched our invasion of Iraq on live streaming.

No it is Russia that wanted this war and nobody else that is why they started it. If Russia cannot defeat Ukraine it is because of us and all the help they are getting from us and the other countries aiding them. We thought this crap from Russia was over when Communism fell. But it was all an illusion we are now seeing the Russia raising its ugly head. And none of these other countries want to go back to the old situation and neither do I or any sane person.

If I had an AR, I would sell it to the gubmint for a million dollars. Makes more sense, if they are throwing money out the window.

Do you wear a red nose and floppy shoes when you make these kinds of comments?

Russia tried to use international forums for their grievances multiple times. Victoria Nuland, Obama, the rest of the globohomopedos have continually pushed Russia into a corner. I don't blame them in the least. Even now, Ukraine will not negotiate a peace.

Ukraine bribes the Bidens with 10 million dollars.

Biden gives Ukraine 200 billion (so far).

Why is he not impeached???

Russia did not have any legitimate grievances. By his own word Putin wanted to recreate “greater Russia”. everybody else knows and understands this which is why so many nations are aiding Ukraine in their fight. I don’t understand why you can’t figure this out.

We have Ukrainian propagandists posting photos daily. There is a war and reporting on it in YOUTUBE channels like Redacted and Colonel Douglas MacGregor's channel. The MSM doesn't want to brag about Biden funding a war other than to push it as falsely 'moral'. US 'volunteers' allowed to resign from the military, 'volunteer' in the Ukraine, and then re-enlist in the military when they return. Also there are Americans operating missile batteries and the government here finally reluctantly admitted there was around 12 American military there 'consulting' with the counter offensive - so there are Americans there whom the MSM and Biden would not like to catch on film.
The Ukraine has been losing the war and the Biden regime/MSM claim they are winning to make sure Biden can keep sending foreign aid (*wink wink*) and again - they don't want video footage unless it's a small amount carefully curated.

There must be something very dark that’s hiding under the covers in Ukraine...

It appears that way. Deep state actors are throwing money to Ukraine to keep secrets hidden. They are spending money we don’t have. And at some point the bill will come due and we won’t be able to pay it. China is watching all this and taking notes.
