“what about replacing these war materials? .....Or are we just giving away our future?”

What war materials? So far the only things we have sent Ukraine are 40 year old Soviet crap.

If from day one we had sent a few hundred each of jets, helicopters, and tanks the war would be over by now.

The Clintons got $100 million in Russian money from the Uranium One deal. My guess is those funds guaranteed the slow walking of all aid to Ukraine.

Yeah... it might be over. Maybe not in the way you think.
Besides, Ukraine had an Air Force in the beginning. It’s kinda gone.

Wow that post of yours is one big lie. You should be ashamed. We have sent them over 100 billion dollars, paid their paychecks and paid the scumbag crooks in Zelensky’s regime.

We never should have sent that carphole one flat dime. But we did. You are too dense to see that the US never gave a hoot how many eastern european scruffs died in front of Russian artillery. Those people were just tools being used and told they were fighting for their freedom but they weren’t told that it was really for western interests and not freedom. Whatta joke.

I guess the Azov nazis are fighting for their right to genocide out the undesirables that they determined don’t belong there. At least they are fighting for something. /s

No doubt one of these days American taxpayers will pay for some stinking monument as thanks for all the dying they did. yep, that will make it all good.

I guess many are finally free because they are dead.
