FWIW, I oppose all foreign aid, to all foreign nations, irrespective of the circumstances.
But I post this article because many Freepers, who I suspect admire Dennis Prager, also oppose aiding Ukraine because they're a "corrupt, evil, Nazi, etc." nation. I'm curious what is their response to Prager's arguments.
>> That is not the America I thought conservatism embraced.
I love you Dennis, but the Ukraine you’re embracing is not the real Ukraine.
A 2 year old article is irrelevant.
What’s he think today?
Like anyone else Prager can and is also wrong at times.
He is wrong here, the enemy of my enemy is a risk laden proposition and best avoided or used with extreme caution at best
Ukraine is corrupt and so is Russia, blindly supporting Ukraine with blank checks and in the end bodies like Ukraine wanted is wrong period.
>> What’s he think today?
That’s a damn good question. Unfortunately, at the moment he has other things on his mind... like hopefully walking again...
The circumstances of Ukraine's corruption, and its invasion by Russia, hasn't changed in two years.
What’s he think today?
When I heard him on the radio less than a year ago, Prager was still defending support for Ukraine.
Korea? Ok. What about South Viet Nam? They were corrupt and quit. The Philippines is corrupt and ripe for something bad. Chicoms and Muslims. 90k GI deaths in Korea and Viet nam combined. Give Ukraine the weapons and let Europe do the fighting.
Purchase Siberia like we did Alaska. Better us than to have them fight the Chicoms over it. That’s how we got Louisiana.
The problem is that Ukraine’s “corruption” is not just internal - its global.
It included even the Biden family, the Kerry Family, etc...
It was used as a political black box to influence American politics, attack Trump, funnel money to the US Deep-state etc...
Its really a weapon used AGAINST the USA.
WTF???
The most that America can do for any nation is to advise them how to have a good nation and then let that nation decide how good of a nation it wants to be.
Leaven the lump, that is all America can do.
Every nation is corrupt, most certainly including ours. That has nothing to do with my objections - I just don’t want my tax money going to fuel a pointless war in which we should not be involved.
Buying is better than stealing. Some countries need money. Plus it’s easier to deal with dictators-no parliament approval needed.
>> Buying is better than stealing. Some countries need money.

Uh... okay. I’m speechless except to thank you for answering my “WTF??” question directly and forthrightly.
Putin is laughing at Trump, because he endorsed his opponents, and now he bosses him around.
I don’t see Putin bossing around Trump.
Thanks for repeating a completely bogus and idiotic Democrat talking point. You have obviously been watching MSNBC and CNN so the rest of us don't have to. What a guy!
I never get any of my news from TV. I get it here on Free Republic. Stop focusing on the media, and on what’s going on here.
Ukraine is destroyed all those people dead all those Ukrainians living underground or who knows with how no good came from this and it’s funny to think in this day and age this modern time we still have a country like Russia that’s trying to reclaim lost land
It was likely little to do with lost land and instead much more to do with the continued European encroachment into countries Russia was originally told would not happen.
You assumption is wrong about land grabbing.
Exactly.
