US election weighs on Ukraine's frontline soldiers
BBC ^ | Nov 1, 2024 | James Waterhouse

As she sweeps up broken glass outside her shop, Inna knows her country’s future is in the hands of Americans voting more than 5,000 miles away.

“We hope that the woman, Kamala Harris, will win and support us,” she says.

“Of course we are worried about the outcome [of the election],” she adds. “We want to defeat the enemy!”

For Ukraine to have a remote chance of doing that, it needs the help of the US.

It was here in 2023, on this south-eastern part of the front line, where Ukraine launched a counteroffensive it hoped would force out the Russian invaders.

Instead, after little to no progress, Ukraine’s ambitions have switched to survival.

How much more support do they need fcol? Or rather, where are their generals who are supposed to know how to wage and win a war and why haven’t they?

Of course the warmongering neocons will vote for Kamalala.
The money grift needs to continue.
Concerning the Ukies, the warmongers have been supporting the FJB/Kamalala regime 100%.

This is BBC crap. I bet this woman interviewed is a phony.

What Ukraine needs is for Trump to win, and end to the current war. The US to pack up and get the hell out of there and leave Ukraine to be a country without our State Dept in control.

We leave and Russia ends their part.

The war is lost, Russia will take their spoils and peace will return.

While we are at, end NATO. It became what it should have never become.

The latest Biden arms pkg, some $425M tax dollars, to Ukraine:
<><> air defense capabilities,
<><>air-to-ground weapons,
<><>munitions for rocket systems
<><>artillery,
<><>armored vehicles,
<><>and anti-tank weapons.

The same Biden tramples on Americans’ 2A rights, grabbing guns families need to protect themselves, while blanketing the Ukrainian shysters with weaponry.

Jack Posobiec on an episode of Human Events Daily:
“Zelensky can’t even use the bathroom at 3 am without
getting a permission slip from Biden/Harris’ State Dept.”


Lindsey Graham told Face the Nation there’s $10-12
trillion in natural gas assets under Ukraine’s Crimea.

So Biden is staging all this “save Ukranian democracy”
nonsense to prevent Russia and China from getting that.

The billions of endless tax dollar giveaways to Ukraine
are energy related...........just like Iraq’s oil.

In 2019, candidate Joe Biden promised his White House would end “forever wars” like Iraq and would “reassert American leadership” to combat authoritarianism and global instability, which he said are proliferating under President Donald Trump.

We have a couple of retired 4 stars we don’t need any longer who contribute nothing positive for us that we can give them. They all have had long careers with a chest full of shiny medals. Normally I would never criticize someone who served in uniform, but I can make exceptions for milly, Kelly and hell, buy one of the above (they are actually fairly cheap) and I’ll throw in both vidmann colonels for free.
