Great point. My first thought; why are we sending billions in weapons to Ukraine (which we are told they need to survive) just to have them resell the weapons on the open market. The Ukraine war is looking more like a military industrial complex fire sale everyday.

Being an old Cold War vet, I remember a number of conflicts and incidents where we tested our weapons systems in real time. The Ukraine is starting to look like a Russian and USA test run of weapon systems. Reading between the lines, If the propaganda is true, Russian is burning through stock piles of old munitions while the USA is testing its new military tech. Russia gets rid of outdated munitions that are costly to maintain, while developing countermeasures to newer western tech. We will sell the tech and make billions, they sell the countermeasures and make billions. Cold War 2.0

This is a big clue that what is going with Ukraine is not all that it appears. Ukraine is a tool for the deep state.

Serbian weapons “yeah that’s the ticket, and I’m married to Morgan Fairchild, Yeah”. Not U.S. weapons at all, nope, not.

As I read it, those are Ukrainian bio-weapons that they are trying to keep from falling into the hands of advancing Russian forces. Serbia has no motive for anything like that.

LOL No, I was mostly busy with that make a living/work thing, and I don’t know anything about cargo planes, rate of fuel consumption, etc. Thanks for all the facts you have provided.

Approximately 47x. The worst kind of crash is a munitions cargo plane crash.

Were those American weapons bought on black markets in Ukraine?

Is ‘Joe The Big Guy’ getting his cut? And a cut for the other scum running Washington DC?

Looks like there’s a market for all that left over Material from Traitor Joe. More money spent on Ukrain in 2022 than 5 years in Afghanistan. You fill in the blanks.
