this is from the Wall Street Journal

But I still refuse to subscribe to their woke propaganda.

YouTube. Everyone I respect has been banned from that left-wing mouthpiece.

Are you there, in Ukraine? Can you verify anything that’s happening from first-hand experience? Where do you get your information?

You would be more current on this stuff if you read warzone and a few others.

I do (and was one of the first, if not the first to post their articles on FR) and your post was sort of vague, while you supplied no answer in your reply

Notice he said, “ confirmations coming in”, but supplied no actual confirmation.

Actually, I did like the title and the article. There is a happy ending for the town. Russian invaders are gone. Stores are full of food and the ATMs have been restocked with money.

WSJ is the only online website I pay money for.

The story actually broke yesterday. Biden was considering it.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/ukraine-asks-biden-admin-armed-drones-jamming-gear-surface-air-missile-rcna20197

His speech today said armed drones were being sent to Ukraine. The only question is which ones.

I do wonder why only 100. Just going to Ukrainian special forces and not regular army? don’t have enough in inventory for more? Maybe see how they are used in Ukraine before sending more?

“The U.S. will send 100 Switchblade drones to Ukraine as part of the Biden administration’s new $800 million weapons package, Texas Rep. Mike McCaul, the top Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told POLITICO”

US domestic makers don’t make much 762X39 but remember the days of Sadam’ Iraq? Our guys were supposed to be salvaging some of those huge stashes that Sadam had. And most of that was supposed to go to Ft. Irwin and maybe Ft Bragg, and probly a few other stash places like USN depot Hawthorn, NV. for training. The Ammo, Inc. guys also said they were going to donate (I think) 5 million rounds to the Ukes-—enough for a full mag for each AK47 in Ukeland, they said. So, yeah, we didn’t make it but we should have had it——semper fi

They will get as far as Poland. After that their movement is questionable. Probably end up in the hands of any US troops in Poland. But it will look and sound good making Joe a Wartime President on all the MSN networks, also garner votes in the fall.

If they get used in Ukraine, we will see videos on @oryxspioenkop and @UAWeapons.

We will know in a couple of weeks.

Just look up Spetsnaz on wiki and various military sites that deal in unit descriptions......Wikipedia? Sure I’ll get right on that site that is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Right after that, I’ll check Vox, Salon.com, DailyBeast and The View.

As for training manuals ........ so the instructors in the Russian military just teach their classes from memory? Provide the training manual, please.

Which Drug cartel group is responsible for killing millions with munitions....oh, so if they die from a gun or a bomb, that death is worth more than sayyyyyyy, the 100,000 Americans who died last year, from Fentanyl and other drug overdoses, that was made in China and came into the country via Mexico.

Can you tell me, since Putin has been in power over the years, how many wars Russia has been involved in and how many folks they’ve killed? I’m not talkig about Lenin or Stalin or any of the Tsar’s before them. Just Putin.

On a side note....we all know that Russia is the boogeyman. OMG!!! As this is all going on, the United States is apparently still in negotiations with the Iranians over the nuke deal.

The Biden administration is trying to use the Russia-Ukraine war as cover for a new nuclear deal with Iran

America’s partner at the negotiating table is Russia as the world watches Putin’s brutality in Ukraine

https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/biden-administration-russia-ukraine-war-nuclear-deal-iran

The Russians are “the most vile terrorists in the world” yet, here the CornPop administration is still using them during negotiations.

Using them because he’s paid to do it and he wants the USA destroyed - the rest of your argument is nonsense.
