I understand that they have critical parts stockpiled and readily available.

Like for their tanks?

Here’s a fun challenge for you:

Cite one post of mine where I say I will never support Donald Trump.

Just one.

Go ahead.

Yeah.... but don’t forget the ending of that fable. One day there was a wolf. If WWIII comes, it would be great if DC vanished.

“Oh? they’ve been at it for over 8 years. Sources? None that I can disclose with a random on the internet. People there yes.”

No sources, it did not happen in my book. They tried to impeach Trump on rumors. All those rumors turned out to be lies.

I think you might be right on that, maybe China is a paper tiger too.

Something to consider.

What happens if we supply the Ukrainians with so much military equipment that it leaves us vulnerable?

What happens if at that predetermined time, the Red Chinese act in the south china sea area?

Or on our southern boarder and within the USA?

Dont think it cant be done? How many have crossed our boarder the last year and half? Who are they?

Years ago, the port authorities at either Long Beach or LA admitted that they had seized weapons of mass destruction being brought into this country. The port authorities denied that original statement by that port authority person. It was reported by a local TV reporter. I can not find that original TV report anymore.

This..back in 1997. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1997-03-15-mn-38557-story.html

dunno but here is my calculus fwiw-

ww iii happens between russia and whoever-not-china.

if china backs russia, china eners the MAD vortex (result- china loses)

if china does not back russia, china helpf fill the vacuum left by russia and whoever-not-china (result- chinawins)

i know, it cant be that simple. but if it is that simple, then chinas best option is to sit out ww iii and share the soils afterwards. in addition, everyone else will see the same logic.

if we get pulled into such a ww iii variant, then imo the usa would need to prepare for this scenario, because surviving ww iii would be just the beginning of our problems.

speculating, turkey would make a nice place from which to launch a nato counterstrike. currently turkey is suffering from 70 % inflation. erdogan wants low interest rates. anyway, i wonder if there is a biden admin plan to come to turkeys economic rescue in the offing, and if so what strings might be attached...

It’s funny because I was going to bring up some of those things.

It’s very probable that when this is over we will be weakened and depleted to a dangerous extent.

Spetsnaz type units are probably here and more are coming through every week. They found a huge miles long tunnel running from Tijuana all the way to San Diego.

We’re being ruined from every angle and every way 24/7.

Bottom line: The USA must be destroyed before the Globalists can implement their One World Order. Klaus Schwab and Obama and Soros and the rest of the evil bastards are smiling.

Indonesia canceled a bid for some Russian kilo class submarines.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilo-class_submarine#Failed_bids

I submit that they should be called bravo delta class submarines (bravo delta: broke ****).

Venezuela has been interested in them.

You can read about human rights violations (including torture and rape) committed by the Ukrainian government and its agents here (also includes those reportedly committed in rebel- and Russian-controlled areas), All pre-war (2020 or 2021):

Putin is at the end of his rope. His generals and subordinates know what the result will be if he orders nukes and they won’t let that happen since they have families too........

Ukrainians have been involved in efforts to rid their country of Soviet-era corruption since the 1990s. Russia, however...

No one is really set up to fight peer powers anymore, and that includes the US.

We spent 20 years fighting an insurgency, and that means different tools and capabilities.

In short, I am worried the US is not going to be able to do a “traditional” war.

Dear Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko :

Imho, between you and me, it’s not a good idea to start another war front, when the first attack didn’t go so well.

For example, operation Barbarossa.

Hitler f’up.

Vlad, ya hearing me?

I don’t think these douchebags in charge of our country have thought that through.

The Douchbag in Chief is incapable of stringing two coherent sentences together and the others are there only because they're "WOKE". Rational thought and long term thinking aren't in their repertoires.
