B.S. article. It’s costing a hell of a lot more than “peanuts” both in dollars and long term, there is a cost to stability. We’ve badly depleted our ordnance, which costs billions to replace. And there is nothing more dangerous than a cornered, wounded animal. Anyone that believes Russia will actually collapse and become NOT a threat is smoking something
It’s cheaper still to stay outta wars that’s none of our business.
America will fight Russia to the last Ukrainian.
The enormous damage done to America’s prestige and dominance was enormous.
The world moving away from dollar and trades in the dollar.
Most of Europe freezing in the dark this winter.
Hunger throughout most of the developing world
Where do you live in RuZZia?
I was unaware the United States has declared war on Russia.
For all that Timothy Ash is crowing about investments to “defeat Russia”, I’ve never been impacted by Russia like I’ve been impacted by Democrat policies, inflation, open borders, and the Deep State.
But sure, keep prioritizing the Russian boogeyman. It’s not like you have anything better to do, apparently.
I enjoyed reading Safire’s columns, especially his Sunday edition on writing.
He’d have plenty of material with today’s press.
“The enormous damage done to America’s prestige and dominance was enormous.”
So wrong. US weapons are a ‘shining beacon’. The World wants them.
About statement:
The Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, public policy institution based in Washington DC, focused on strengthening the transatlantic alliance through cutting-edge research, analysis, and programs.
Can you propaganda at its highest form? Anyone who believes this is delusional.
Yep. Great for Lockheed Martin stockholders.
Glad you think this a great thing.
Meanwhile, the BRICS countries are expanding and not using the dollar for trade.
And you have no idea how this is gonna crush America.
“So wrong. US weapons are a ‘shining beacon’. The World wants them.”
You’re dying too, as is everyone on this blue ball called earth. No one, including Putin, as well as his detractors, knows when that date is.
Gettin’ yer rocks off on all the dead White folks Gonzalez?
Think of all the generations of non-existent Caucasians that are being wiped out now by prolonging this disgusting mud fight. All so Sorors and his buddies can get the Crimean oil and gas.
Keep strokin’ there Guero.
Almost 1 trillion dollars is NOT peanuts
“So wrong. US weapons are a ‘shining beacon’.”
Weapons sales are an amoral action, dependent upon what the buyer does with them.
American weapons used by the UK or France are not equal to American weapons used by Pakistan or Saudi Arabia.
We sell to whomever is able and willing to buy.
But don’t pretend like being the world’s top arms exporter is some barometer of America’s moral goodness.
A “shining beacon”? Come on.
Crimea? Soros WEF EU can’t wait for business as usual with Russia and to get all the Russian gas they want. Putin is a full partner with WEF Schwab.
He just believes in his government regardless of who is in control of it. The government is in complete control by Marxists/Communists who absolutely are jealous of the control the CCP has over her citizens. That's why they are determined to have that same control.
Idiots like Speedy are too ignorant to understand that reality.
Its costing peanuts to run the risk of WWIII.
Surrendering to nuclear blackmail ensures nuclear proliferation and there eventual use. A firm hand is needed here with the world watching. Cutting and running is the worst possible outcome.
How many trillions and how many decades do you think we should commit to that folly? Why do you think it's our business to do that?
Crane is only getting a small fraction of that most of that is diverted to in country programs.
And why are we spending anything to defend a corrupt country that purchased our loathsome idiot president (and his party)?
Sorry, it’s their problem. And Europe’s problem. Long past time those lazy socialist b*stards got off their butts and started paying for their own defense.
