Give Ukraine More Missiles, Urges Boris Johnson, as Ukraine Hammers Russian Black Sea Fleet at Anchor With Strikes
Breitbart ^ | 09/14/2023 | OLIVER JJ LANE

The United Kingdom should keep handing over its stocks of advanced cruise missiles, former Prime Minister and key Zelensky ally Boris Johnson has said, as Ukraine continues to strike Russia’s navy.

The West needs “strategic patience” and a “far greater sense of urgency about our programme of military assistance” towards Ukraine, former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has written for a British news magazine, as he urged more missiles for Ukraine, and as soon as possible. The shopping list of missiles he has in mind is broad, from UK Storm Shadow cruise missiles, ‘ATACM’ tactical missiles, man-portable air defence missiles, and more Patriot air defence missile batteries.

This is because, Johnson says, Ukraine is capable of pushing back Russia and needs more support. He said: “Even if they can’t do it in the next few weeks – or however much remains of the 2023 fighting season – they can certainly do it next year.

Err, I have a question. Has any country in the West, actually increased their arms production? I read that the U.S. is now building a whopping 19000 rounds of 155 mm ammo per month.

Very much so, new factories, upgrading of old factories, better financing, better contracts, and the West is finalizing tweaks on standardization on all sorts of artillery ammo and missiles.

Hey, nobody has any doubt that British intelligence would murder people for having a contrary opinion. British intelligence knowingly lied about Donald Trump, claiming he was a Russian spy. They lied to get us into World War I and destroyed the undersea cable between Europe and America. They lied about the Lusitania which really was carrying war munitions. It’s a grand tradition in England which goes back hundreds of years.

The sobriquet “perfidious Albion” didn’t just fall out of the sky.

this perfectly shows Russia didn’t invade Ukraine. They invaded a TINY sliver of Ukraine...a non ally. Why the hell should we care?

A lot of these arm chair generals will lose their courage as soon as their pumpkin spice latte’s price rises to $7 dollars.

Impossible to tell. In another statement a few months ago, Biden said USA has depleted a lot of ammo.

Thanks to idiots like Johnson and US neocons, Russia is de-militarizing NATO.

Sure, why should anyone care about invasions for imperial conquest in Europe? Its not like that has started World Wars in the past or could be an example to China invading Taiwan (who is also a "non ally")?

We are helping the enemy of our enemy.

LOL, yes russian T-90's which cost $4.5 million are "de-militarizing" NATO by intercepting NLAW missiles which cost $30,000. Okay

US, NATO and Ukraine are deporting Putin’s navy ships and air defense from the western Black Sea. Taking care of business.

Oh sure. But they are a lying murderous nation with a low-life spy mentality that directly infested America with the OSS/CIA.
Essentially, America was an honest nation politically before the world. Britain is known widely as a scheming cloak and dagger type nation. Our elites in the WWII era were seduced into the British model.

They are a filthy government and always have been. I fail to see how an American would champion Brits torpedoing America every chance they get.

You sound like Schumer saying the CIA has three ways from Sunday of getting back at you. Not to mention that an MI6 murdering an American citizen (presumably on American soil)for daring to have an opinion, your post is disgusting

Well, the US defense industrial base (ie., funding, planning, and building the factories) was ramping up strongly in the period immediately prior. And we have, what, 10x the bureaucracy? (Not quite as bad as the present day Germans, though.)

YouTuber “Perun” did a great vid covering NATO Rearmament, recently. Germany’s pace is glacial. But, glaciers have other qualities too...

Well Mr. Johnson, I would suggest this to you: Fly to Ukraine, put on a Ukranian Army uniform, pick up a weapon and fight for Ukraine. Good luck.
