Standing with Ukraine...or with Biden's Militarism?
American Thinker ^ | July 29, 2023 | Dana E. Abizaid

Posted on 07/29/2023 9:29:09 AM PDT by Kazan

Given Biden's recent decision to provide the Ukrainian military with cluster bombs, Ukrainian flag-flying is less about supporting an oppressed people and more a sign of backing Biden's militarism.

Unfortunately, Ukraine is not the freedom-loving Utopia the U.S. media and Biden wants us to believe it is. Although the Western press has tried to whitewash any reporting of the more unsavory aspects of those defending Ukraine, a quick search on Google reveals solid investigative reporting done by Western journalists before Russia's invasion. At that time, articles in the Guardian, the BBC, and Reuters meticulously depicted the white supremacist and antisemitic tendencies of militias like the Azov Battalion, noted for its essential role in the defense of Ukraine. One shocking piece by Time correspondent Simon Shuster quoted militia members claiming that "we are Aryans and will rise again" and "being tolerant to LGBT people, this is not natural. This is brainwashing." In addition, it's important to note that Ukrainian citizens themselves are fed up with the rampant corruption that defines the Kiev government. According to Transparency International, corruption — more than resumption of conflict — is the main fear of Ukrainian citizens and business-owners planning to rebuild Ukraine. One entrepreneur told Euronews that "the main issue is the amount of investment that could be stolen."

It's disturbing enough that a U.S. citizen would fly the flag of a country he probably can't find on a map. What's worse is that no matter how well intentioned the flag-flying may be, it represents the Biden administration's support for corrupt Ukrainian officials, white nationalism, antisemitism, and human rights abuses. Biden's government is aware of this and, therefore, tries to limit the public's understanding of the true nature of the Ukrainian state and America's use of it as an arms depot and testing ground for U.S. weapons.

Standing with Ukraine...or with Biden's Militarism?

Ukraine is a money laundering operation for the D's and R's and currently one of the main distractions from Biden's selling access for tens of millions of dollars over decades, to allies and enemies alike.

The reason both parties want to keep it going is to keep their gravy train flowing. #factsarepeskythings

This war is a crime against humanity and it only happened to protect Creepy Joe Biden’s piggy bank. Anyone that supports this war is scum.

How I think Trump would end the war in Ukraine:

1. Negotiate an immediate cease fire.
2. Insist on free and fair elections and each province of the Ukraine would choose Russia or Ukraine.
3. If unacceptable by the Russians inform them we will supply Ukraine with everything they need except nuclear weapons.
4. If unacceptable to Ukraine, inform them you are on your own.

I think that is essentially Trump’s plan. I doubt he will get into the elections details.

Anything Joe Biden and Lindsay Graham agree on is bad news.

Just call toll-free, ‘The Biden School of Making it Big in Government.’”

Blood flowing in virtual rivers.

China now supplying Russia with parts and some non-armed AFVs, drones etc. Talk is they may start sending ammo, N Korea may start sending older artillery pieces Russia has ammo for.

NATO my ramp up production.

If both sides do that the war could last for years and kill millions on both sides. Should make the war mongers quite happy. Except few Ukrainians will still be alive.

Here is what I mean in an Amazing video, 1 Russian tank destroys an entire Ukr armored column. BUCKETS of blood:

You can't have free and fair elections with occupation army in place. And the russians won't leave these areas any other way than feet first.

It's not that simple. Trump made a mistake. If elected he will have to either make concessions to Putin or admit he was wrong.

Scum, or being paid, or very very lacking in intelligence.

I doubt very much NATO countries have the capacity to ramp up production any time soon.

Poland may be the exception, but they have long had an ulterior motive.

I’m livid that we sent even $1 to help this lying little twerp (putting it politely). Biden and Zellensky belong in adjoining cells on death row.
