To hell with this.

Johnson is another fake “good man” religious idiot.

“ So if it’s not too much trouble I’d like our government to tell us how we’ll know when we can stop writing checks”
*****************************************

If we DON’T RESTART “writing checks” to Ukraine we won’t need to debate WHEN WE CAN STOP. IT’S NOT OUR WAR. We certainly don’t need to get ourselves further entangled in that GLOBALIST PROJECT.

“America First! HOWS THE BORDER!”

Wasting your time. They don’t care. Most of them are foreigners, foreigners pretending to be Americans, or liberals pretending to be conservatives.

Democrats want to force Minsk 3 and a Ukraine surrender before Trump wins in November. Then partner with Putin to nuke up Iran and finish up their Trump Iran policy busting deal.

“If he had sent 500 jet fighters of any kind along with the full panoply of air-launched guided munitiona (HARMs and JDAM kits),”

Who is supposed to fly these 500 planes? Do we have 500 planes to spare? Get real. Ukraine doesn’t have enough pilots. They’d just get blown up on the ground. Unless you’re wanting to use our kids.

“Our kids” have good jobs now exporting energy to Europe because Russian interests are busy being getting kicked out of NATO Europe. Maybe you don’t want Americans to have those jobs and want them in Russia. That’s ok.

We currently have 3000 tanks in storage. About 30 have been given to Ukraine. We have plenty of old gear but obviously opposition to aiding Ukraine isn’t based on that reality.

Ukraine has more pilots than planes, which isn’t new to this war. So did the Russians in WW2. That’s why the West supplied them with 15,000 airplanes, including almost 5K of the late model Airacobra, first made in 1941.

Polish pilots performed better in the Battle of Britain, using British gear than their British counterparts. They lacked sufficient hardware, but neither skills nor personal grit.

They don’t have 500 pilots and we don’t have 500 planes to spare. Lend-Lease and Polish pilots in the BoB are irrelevant. Unless you’re hinting around that US pilots should do it.

If by WW3, you mean Putin will strike the US with nukes, that’s extremely unlikely. No conceivable Russian military defeat could justify the extinction of the Russian people that a Russian nuclear first strike would bring about. Putin isn’t averse to exterminating the US population. It’s the return fire he fears.

The Friends and Family Plan, in the event of a Russian nuclear attack, isn’t some huge secret. Zbig talked about it during the Carter years. If Putin initiates a nuclear attack, paraphrasing Halsey, Russian will only be spoken in hell.

“We currently have 3000 tanks in storage.”

Why do we have 3000 tanks in storage? We have them in case your fondest wish comes true and Russia attacks NATO. Then we’re going to need them. Are we supposed to strip our stocks for Ukraine and then have none when we really need them?

We won’t agree on what Ukrainian pilot numbers are, as well as the number of planes sitting in the boneyard. But in the event they did have enough pilots and we did have enough mothballed planes, would you have approved of a transfer of 500 fighter jets using the $100b sent so far, instead of the mostly humanitarian aid that Biden actually sent?

So let’s get the Hollywood script straight,500 Poles flying obsolete bombers held together with baling wire embark on a mass suicide attack against Russia.

Whew ! make sure the flight leader is a transvestite, leading the queer Squadron ! .

Finally the Trans will get the glory !

Hah! Like that measly final DC and Kiev Quisling oligarch money grab is going to matter. My Big Toe! Z’s stooges are celebrating because their corrupt MIC bosses get one last payout before Ukraine is completely bled out.
