All US allies in the Pacific AND the Pacific Air Force will be shorted their principal ATA missile, and their principal Air Defense missile.

The Pacific where we have multiple strategic and commercial interests that dwarf those in Europe...much less Ukraine...will be sacrificed on the Ukrainian alter.

The US is being run by people who hate America and Americans.

We are going to give Ukraine 500 AMRAAM missiles plus how many more Patriots?

What the heck are they thinking about.

The US needs way more missile production capacity for its confrontation with China. This is not a short term issue. The first step is to give Raytheon a large order book for these, to pay for increased capacity.

You are focusing on the short term, we should be looking at the medium term.

And don’t go on about defense industry political kickbacks from Raytheon. If you are serious about China then you have to deal with Raytheon.

Personally I would ask Musk run Raytheon, as a national emergency measure, but I suppose he has better things to do.

Biden can’t take another Afghanistan pullout fiasco. Look for him to whatever it takes to prop up Ukraine until after the election.

The USA never started a world war before. Countries that start world wars lose.

"The Biden administration’s decision to temporarily halt deliveries of Patriot and National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems, or NASAMS interceptors for all countries except Ukraine and Taiwan won’t just affect allied air defense capabilities."

That's a Hell of a way to treat your customers.

Taiwan needs nuclear weapons. That’s it.
