In Lend Lease we got stuff in return. Basing rights etc. We get nothing from Ukraine except and outstretched palm, bribing half of DC, sex trafficking, and undermining Trump.
That is why I wrote in the first post: we damned well better be negotiating American Land as the thing to fight for. Big, sweeping American EmBASEees along the border between Russia and Ukraine. A Lend Lease project. Americans fighting for American land. For generations we could use that land to build airports and fight terrorism in that region. I would call it the BBudapest AAgreement LLend LLease program because it would take BALLs.
