Ukraine’s Defense Minister Says It Has ‘Passed Test’ on New U.S. Guided Rockets, Needs More
WSJ ^ | 10-JUL-2022 | Vivian Salama

After some early hesitation over concerns the systems could be used by Ukrainian forces against Russian territory, reluctantly drawing the U.S. into the fight, Washington said it would initially send four Himars to Ukraine, and train Ukrainian forces to use them. These advanced systems are mobile launchers capable of striking targets from a maximum distance ranging from about 60 kilometers to nearly 500 kilometers depending on the type of ammunition used.

“We needed to persuade them, to show them proof,” said Mr. Reznikov. “In the Izyum case, we were precise [in targeting] a Russian command center for aerial operations. It was really precise. Our partners saw it and said, ‘You passed the test.’”

That’s the best you can come up with? Pretty lame but that’s what I’ve come to expect of someone who isn’t even a shadow of the real Jan Sobieski.

The question that should be asked is what are the American people gaining from Biden and Co’s increasing involvement in this criminal enterprise?

It doesn’t matter how much the corrupted little beggar Zelensky receives, it will not change the outcome. The Ukies have lost, horrendous casualties, totally destroyed economy on life support ( US aid), leveled cities, destroyed infrastructure, destroyed manufacturing, and now conscripting woman….desperation. Some here believe the Ukies “ defiance” will somehow save them, but it is destroying them.

The little beggar better get negotiating before Vlad seals their fate by eating Odessa for dinner.

We are gaining the final and total destruction of the last vestiges of the Soviet Union.

Those pricks threaten nuclear war every day and now they threaten to invade Alaska. They invite destruction and they deserve it.

Sadly, it seems obvious there is a Quisling fifth column that would welcome Russian rape and mass murder of Americans in Alaska.

The more you insist the Ukrainians are losing the more I am convinced of their impending victory.

Actual victors need not convince anyone of their victories. The victories will speak for themselves.

But the victories in this war are named Kyiv, Moskva, Snake Island, etc.

What planet are you calling from? Wait. Before you answer that I have a geography question for you.

Where is Sverdlovsk, Russia? and why did the president of Rockefeller University go there in 1986?

Give up? https://collections.nlm.nih.gov/ext/document/101584906X18717/PDF/101584906X18717.pdf

Only problem was After the fall of the Soviet Union and subsequent US investigations in the early 1990's a team of scientists confirmed the outbreak was caused by a release of an aerosol of anthrax pathogen from a nearby military facility, the lab leak is one of the deadliest ever documented

That's from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_Lederberg

What does that all mean? It means you should learn WHO your real enemies are.

Good luck in life.

Since, as generally acknowleged, the US military isnt quite up to using most of its weapon systems due to woke decadence, then they might as well be given to the Ukrainians.

What does the US need HIMARS and millions of rounds of 155mm for?

Better someone uses all that for blowing up Russians than gathering dust.
