Foiled Muslim terrorists were set to purchase American weapons from Ukrainian military official for pennies on the dollar

Carte blanche checks to cross-dressing globalists running one of the most corrupt government cartels in the world? What could possibly go wrong?

***snip*** The jihadists who planned attacks on cathedrals in Austria and Germany this past Christmas were offered a rocket launcher by an unnamed army official in Ukraine, according to the Austrian news outlet, Exxpress.

The site reported on Wednesday that the German Federal Criminal Police Office had obtained testimony from one of the suspects affiliated with the Islamic State terror cell in the Afghan province of Khorasan (ISPK) that revealed the group had been approached by “a contact who is supposed to fight in the army in the Donetsk Basin” regarding the purchase of a U.S.-manufactured FIM-92 Stinger missile.

It was reported that the Ukrainian national within his country’s military ranks offered to sell the weapon for $5,000 and regularly visits Germany to attempt to sell military equipment on the black market.

The Islam jihad boys love them some Ukie graft...

From the article:

First, the cadaver-in-chief pulls out of Afghanistan in the most asinine and irresponsible of ways, causing the murders of American soldiers and Afghan civilians, and hands billions of dollars over to the terrorist group now running the government; then, he delivers weapons over to one of the most notoriously corrupt government cartels in the history of the world, and those arms somehow make it to the black market, being sold to the very jihadists who have “intensified” thanks to his efforts and foreign policies.

Wait till one brings down a US commercial airliner….just as Kadyrov promised to senile Joe….his well publicized video showed truck loads of captured Stingers and Javelins during the fall of Marioupol….I imagine the US response will be another “ fuel tank explosion “ due to faulty wiring….

Why?

Is the Afghan supply of U.S. weapons running low?

The original article:

Actually, the terrorists planned to hit the cathedral in Cologne as well as the one in Vienna, and also planned to attack a gay pride parade in Austria. More interesting stuff, too. German is my second language, but you can use Google or Siri translate to read it.

The comments from Austrians on the article are priceless! They sound like Freepers complaining about open borders, invasion of “immigrants”, and comments re Ukraine also interesting. Lots of sarcasm on all fronts.

And the US Senate rejected Rand Paul’s proposal for an inspector general to ensure the weapons went only to the Ukrainian military.

This situation was completely foreseeable. So why was the proposal blocked?

bump for later

Yeah, I’m sure none got away......🤔😳

Yet another article that takes a few scattered bits of reality and mixes it with wild speculation and unverified "claims", then blends it into an inflammatory cocktail that is all toxic.

Urkaine - where did this come from?

Ukraine does have a history of corruption - they learned it from the best (Russia/USSR), and when left in the horrific state (the new term "4th World" was coined specifically for the former Soviet block nations that had been raped and pillaged under many decades of Soviet abuse. Politicians with hands under the table - and several as puppets of the Russian communists (by any other name) - and the corruption continued -

And the people continued to get more upset about it - so there is a reason the Maidan Revolution was so easy to trigger (no doubt the US/CIA had at least a hand in it). When I was over there in 2018 - the hate against two things was heavy (and justified): Communists (and anyone in any way connected, rightly or not), and Corruption. The people have absolutely ZERO trust for politicians... and a brutal hate for Russians.P> Here's another tidbit - that these writers seem to gladly ignore: Ther have been some extremely high-profile arrests for corruption - the likes of which have not been seen in that nation. There are incentives for turning in the corrupt. Whistleblowers are heroes.

None of that takes away that the entire Russia/Ukraine war is on the tab of Biden... that his weakness set it up - and his ineptitude enabled it. And lest we forget, he is every bit as corrupt as any Ukrainian politician...

As to the Muslim terrorist claims - That just doesn't pass the smell test. MUCH more plausible is that either there was a trap laid to catch the terrorists... OR some flunkie somewhere in Ukraine (or claiming to be) was trying to scam the terrorists, but didn't actually have access to the promised weapons.

The old always-truthful Islamic terrorists and anonymous “Ukrainian contact” formula justifies the Muskovite invasion of Ukraine. Got it!

[JonPreston]

[JonPreston]

there was no invasion.

[Allegra]

Ping. :)

[tennmountainman]

Corrupt Ukraine.

Just what color IS the sky in your world?

The Israelis have already detected Ukraine weapons in the hands of Hamas.

From both captured by Russians and transferred, and sold off on the black market by Ukrainians.

Liberation is hardly an invasion.

[Chad C. Mulligan]

What the articles SAYS is that Israel is worried that American weapons captured by Russian forces are being transferred to Iran, and might be copied and supplied by Iran to Hamas.

"Another source, who works in intelligence for a foreign country and also requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the subject, identified to Newsweek a specific event on August 20 in which a Russian Il-76 transport aircraft was said to have dropped off a cargo in Tehran worth an estimated $100 million, including Western weapons. The weapons were said to include U.S.-made Javelins and United Kingdom-made Next-Generation Light Anti-armor Weapons (NLAWs)."

Some of us read beyond the headlines.

[Chad C. Mulligan]

Yeah, and Hitler was “liberating” the Sudetenland.
