And Zelensky just asked China for financial help in rebuilding Ukraine.....
———-
Ukraine will be carved up. Vlad is already rebuilding Marioupol, he will keep and rebuild all the ethnic Russian areas, rumor has it Poland is readying 20,000 “Peacekeeping” forces to deploy and administer the old Polish territories in Ukraine.

In either case, Zelensky will soon be ousted, a large part of the western Ukraine is realizing the destruction he is imposing upon them….fine and dandy for the ethnic Russian provinces, but western Ukraine is not ready for the destruction committed in the east…( western Ukies absolutely never liked the eastern Russian provinces).

Biden’s puppeteer is the world’s biggest weapons trader, factoring in the advanced weapons Biden gifted to the Taliban when he surrendered Afghanistan.

Has anyone linked to Biden received a payoff from foreign sources?

Were these missing weapons even put into the shipping crates? Perhaps some of those new IRS hires are slotted to be the Enforcement goons.

I did not vote for them to fund sending $40 billion in taxpayer money (that we don’t have to give) to globalist criminals. If you support that, you’re a criminal, too. And you’re most assuredly someone who does not belong on FR.

A noose or firing squad should await the treasonous and corrupt warmongering scumbag. The sooner the better.

Anything that happens under Joe Biden’s crew is rife with, and chock full of corruption. Literally everything.

Putin and Zelensky are just two dudes.

- - - - - - -

The war is between Russia and the U.S. Zelensky is a U.S. puppet.

Where such news is placed is important, and this suggests that the media are doing a measured “about face” in terms of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, now surely out of reach of a “win”

- - - - - - -

The goal was never winning.

How much money did the U.S. spend on the war?

The war directors achieved their goal of directing the money where they wanted and enriched themselves.

I predicted some time ago that this conflict would leave Europe awash in weapons. Wonder if any have made them to the Netherlands, yet....

Who are these people being interviewed? They could be anybody.

The 30% claim is from Jonas Ohman, the CEO of a Lithuanian NGO that provides non-lethal aid to Ukraine. He said once his aid crosses into Ukraine, logistical and distribution issues disrupt deliveries. Despite the clickbait headline, it has nothing to do with US weapons or weapons at all. It's Lithuanian food, medical supplies, body armor, boots, radios, cars, DJI drones, etc. All HIGHLY pilferable and NOT overseen by a nation-state. In the "teaser", CBS edited his comment about Lithuanian non-lethal aid after a clip of an Amnesty International rep expressing concern about weapons, making it seem he is speaking of weapons.

There is no specific or documented claim of any missing US weapons in the actual CBS story beyond the headline. In other words (C)omplete BS. Or as CBS's Dan Rather would put it "Fake but accurate."

--- "The war directors achieved their goal of directing the money where they wanted and enriched themselves."

I think this an more than adequate explanation. Sadly.
