Thank you for an excellent library of links. I see Pravda is really interested in Tank news. The other day I saw news Poland has placed 2 orders with us for more than 300 Abrams. This war is going to make the MIC rich, but it is also going to provide several or more years of steady factory employment, here and elsewhere Now let’s get the workers wages up and make sure the bosses pay their fair share of taxes.

Ukraine is now a certified welfare nation, the world’s largest welfare queen. Most don’t realize our money packages are going directly to fund their government, from local government officials to National officials salaries to propping up their currency, to funding their government in entirety….poor citizens are seeing nothing from our billions going down the Ukie toilet.

Ukraine depends 100 percent upon the West’s welfare. There is no future for them in this sorry state…..which bodes not well for them, thus it is clear:

Ukraine 1991-2023 RIP

No, we are living in denial. Most people have no clue except the TV tells them Rah Rah Ukraine.

It is all nauseating.

We already do. We tell Ukraine what to do and Russia knows it.

I am a man of peace, and an American citizen. This isn't our fight.

Same as that Minsk agreement?

Russia isn’t moving to additional conquests. We are. Geesh you are blind. We are sitting right next to their border with NATO and you call them the aggressor? We said we would not do that, but we did.

Then there was Minsk, which was agreed upon and a lie to appease Russians.

Replenishing is good. Continuing to supply Ukraine is insane: there is no path for Ukraine to win.

Why? Ukraine has already exceeded all expectations by surviving for almost a year.

There are many paths for Ukraine to survive into the future.

Thee Big War is coming—this should have been done six months ago. We are Not ready for the looming conflict. What Must be Done NOW!
1. Close the border—air tight. Place land mines all along the thing least saboteurs slip across the Border.
2. In stall Draft for all people ages 18 to 26—Men, Women, Trans, Gay, Legal, illegal.
3. Make all needed drugs, things here—NO Imports from unfriendly nations. FORTRESS AMERICA!
4. Stop production of all civilian cars to build planes and tanks.
5. End all Green Laws and limits for the duration.
6. WE need a 600 ship navy and a 15 million army NOW.
7. Law and Order put in place. Criminals put into special Mozart Gropes as “Shock Troops”—To be used first. A year at the front and they get a full pardon. They can comeback with a medal as heroes or in a body bag.

“Ukraine is America’s colony”

It has been and will continue to be the primary money laundering vehicle for Western “elites”. The final periods for disintegrating empires historically yields profligate money printing and wars. Times change, but human nature does not.

"I am a man of peace, and an American citizen. This isn't our fight."

That's what those people on the subway say who just stand around while a rape happens and they take videos.

And we're not fighting it. We're simply providing weapons and instruction to those people who are fighting for their own self defense.

And if you can't see how that is the right thing to do for the people of Ukraine, ourselves and the world, then you're blind to history.

Fortunately Congress gets it, the DOD gets it, Europe gets it, NATO gets it, the UN gets it, the world gets it. Biden stares blankly doesn't really get it but doesn't want to appear to be standing in the way more than he does.

"Killing enough Ukrainian rebels till the rest run away seems like a pretty good path to victory."

Do you see how dumb that reads when it is not your team?

Rather than cheerlead for Biden’s war, you should join the fray, DannyTN. Or are you a coward?

The United States is an immoral, evil entity, just like the left always said. It’s just that they’re the ones that made it happen.

"Putin wants to recreate the Tsarist empire"

No. Russia wants to stop the advance of the WEF controlled NATO into Russia's breakaway territory. America under the Biden Regime is the aggressor here and the ever eastward march of NATO has gone too far.

This war is going to make the MIC rich, but it is also going to provide several or more years of steady factory employment

Buy General Dynamics Land Systems (General Dynamics Corp.) stock currently $228, makers of the Abrams tank.

And how many those in the congress, department of defense, NATO, Europe and the US are part of the world economic forum who want this great reset?

Until Putin invaded Crimea in 2014,Ukraine was militarily neutral.

Its military force was a walk-over, drastically reduced in size.

It had given up its nuclear weapons in 1994 because Russia explicitly said that it would respect Ukraine’s borders (but it didn’t).

Then, despite 23 years of neutrality, Russia invaded. And when Ukraine called out for help, it got lip service from most countries.

In 2022 the same would have happened if ukraine had not fought back. Because it did fight back, and in one month defeated teh Russians at the battle of Hostomel, then Biden was forced to take action.

If it had not fought back, everyone would have shrugged their shoulders and done nothing.
