Pressure mounts on U.S. to let Ukraine strike Russia with provided weapons

Pressure is mounting to allow Ukraine to use U.S.-provided weapons on military targets within Russian territory.

The big picture: After the Biden administration instituted the ban in an attempt to keep the conflict from escalating, calls to remove the embargo have been growing from U.S. lawmakers, the NATO Parliamentary Assembly and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The criticism from many is that the ban is hindering the country's ability to effectively defend itself.

Context: Ukraine has been provided with a large arsenal of Western weapons, including long-range missiles, but it is not allowed to use them to strike targets in Russian territory.

” They would rather rule in Hell than serve in Heaven. “


I think this is absolutely correct. And we have already seen that the Elites of the West are willing to degrade and deteriorate their own countries in order to maintain and increase their power.

There's no need to “allow” anything. After they took over ownership of those weapons, there's no need to say a damn word.

I’m starting to believe you’re actually dumb enough to believe NATO can defeat Russia in the field without nuclear war being the result.

All over a psuedo country called Ukraine. Where the US has no interests.

And that is irrefutable proof your loyalty is not with America, but elsewhere.

The US & Euro warmongers want a much bigger war! Bigger wars = much more $profit.
Also more dead but they care not for human life, as long as it’s “someone else.”

We have psychotic criminals running this country.

They don’t even try to find a way to peace for the good of all people. They don’t even try to talk with their counterparts. They provoke and instigate war, all around the world.

We are in a very dangerous situation with madmen in charge of our government.

Did anyone notice or care that we are currently attacking Russia’s ballistic missile early warning systems?

I would bet if Russia withdrew from Ukraine, Ukraine would quit attacking the big radars!
