  • Pentagon is sending aid to Ukraine without Congress approval?

    03/01/2024 1:18:25 PM PST · by davikkm · 23 replies
    The Pentagon is considering a controversial move—sending military aid to Ukraine without waiting for Congress to give the nod. Reports suggest they have $4 billion set aside for Ukraine, and they might use it directly from their reserves. Here’s the catch: If they spend this money, Congress might not pay them back. This has raised eyebrows because usually, Congress needs to approve such decisions. The Pentagon seems hesitant to spend this money without a guarantee of getting it back from Congress. It’s led to speculation that they might just decide to send the aid on their own, bypassing the regular...

    President Biden said Friday that the United States will begin airdrops of humanitarian aid into Gaza amid negotiations for a temporary ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict. Biden confirmed the planned airdrops during an Oval Office meeting with the prime minister of Italy. The effort will provide humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in Gaza as watchdogs and aid agencies have warned of increasingly dire circumstances there as Israel carries out military operations throughout the enclave. The airdrops are seen as a way for the U.S. to get aid into the area while officials continue efforts to broker a ceasefire between Israel and...

And we will work to prevent it from happening again,” Secretary of State Blinken pledged. Deputy National Security Advisor Jon Finer assured CNN that “the president was quite clear that if this assistance...

    (AFP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pressed his Western allies to step up military supplies and vowed victory over Russia, as Kyiv marked two years since Moscow’s invasion on Saturday. The Ukrainian leader struck a defiant tone in the capital Kyiv with his troops in the east and south outgunned and outnumbered, and Russia having secured its first territorial gains in almost a year. Speaking to G7 leaders — some of whom had travelled to Kyiv — Zelensky said their “vital support” would help his country prevail on the battlefield. “And you know perfectly well that we need all this...

    Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) arrived in Ukraine on Friday, part of a congressional delegation set to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as the nation marks the two-year anniversary of the start of its war with Russia. Schumer is being joined by four fellow Senate Democrats — Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Jack Reed (R.I.), Richard Blumenthal (Conn.), Michael Bennet (Colo.) and Maggie Hassan (N.H.) — in an effort to show Kyiv that the U.S. still stands behind the war-torn country despite the struggle to approve a new tranche of aid. In a statement, the Democratic leader said...

    A lack of foreign aid deliveries from Western allies makes life “very difficult” for Ukraine’s fighters, a despairing President Volodymyr Zelensky said late Monday. Zelensky and other officials have repeatedly expressed frustration at the slowness of promised aid deliveries even as European countries struggle to find enough stocks to satisfy Kyiv’s demands. In Washington aid worth $60 billion is currently waiting to be approved by Congress, much to the anger of Ukraine’s leadership that wants the U.S. taxpayer funds released as a matter of urgency.
  • The Impact of Ending Military Aid to Ukraine: Gradual Decline, Then Collapse

    02/11/2024 3:05:05 AM PST · by Tom Tetroxide · 99 replies
    As Congress dithers about funding aid to Ukraine, Ukrainian military capabilities decline. This decline is gradual. Previously committed weapons, munitions, and supplies will keep some equipment flowing for months or even years. However, the effects of declining aid will be increasingly apparent on the battlefield. Ukraine is no longer able to conduct a counteroffensive. By February or March, it will have difficulty conducting local counterattacks, and by early summer, it will struggle to fend off Russian attacks. At some point, the front will collapse, and Russia will impose a harsh peace. Q1: Why is military aid needed? A1: Militaries in...

    President Donald J. Trump was accused of withholding U.S. military aid to Ukraine in order to force compliance with his requests. This was the exact claim of those who attempted to impeach President Trump in 2019; this was their originating justification.Today, NBC is reporting that Joe Biden is looking at what military aid can be withheld from Israel in order to force compliance with their requests. I doubt the insufferable dolts in the media can see the ridiculous hypocrisy in this story.

    Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky will come up empty in his latest swing through the U.S. Capitol. Negotiations on additional American aid to Ukraine paired with a border security package are dead for 2024, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell reportedly told his fellow Senate Republicans at their weekly lunch Tuesday. NEWS: McConnell told Senate R’s during lunch just now that the Ukraine/border talks are not going anywhere this year, and that it’ll be punted to January, per attendees. Echoes what Lankford has been saying publicly but notable that it’s coming from McConnell. — Andrew Desiderio (@AndrewDesiderio) December 12, 2023

    Israel also accused Hamas of firing rockets 'from humanitarian zones', endangering civilians....“Hamas keeps putting Gazans in the line of fire. They fire dozens of rockets from the designated humanitarian zone, rockets that often misfire and put even more Gazans at risk,” the IDF said. The IDF released drone footage on Saturday that showed Hamas terrorists stealing humanitarian aid from civilians and assaulting them in the northern Gaza Strip neighborhood of Shaja'iya. The video shows members of Hamas bringing bags of humanitarian aid into their own vehicles and assaulting civilians who attempt to interfere.

    (Via Twitter/X) It's the feel-good video of the season, as one fed-up Gaza woman dares to tell a so-called journalist the truth he doesn't want to admit. For ordinary Gazans, the war their Hamas government started has made life difficult at best. "The situation is difficult, the aid is not coming," a reporter explains to a woman who might have limited access to food and water — but that old gal is having none of his excuses. "All aid goes underground," she replies, referring to the spiderweb of underground tunnels that house Hamas and their rocket factories. "The aid does...

    President Joe Biden echoed the warnings of his defense secretary in an address to the public this week, saying if Congress does not pass $64 billion in aid to Ukraine, U.S. troops will end up fighting Russia in Europe. “This cannot wait. Congress needs to pass supplemental funding for Ukraine before they break for the holiday recess. It’s as simple as that,” Biden began. He then accused skeptical Republicans in Congress of being “willing to give Putin the greatest gift he could hope for and abandon our global leadership not just to Ukraine, but beyond that.”

    In a rare display of public criticism, a Gaza resident tells the Al-Jazeera TV channel that the lack of aid to residents of the Strip is due to Hamas stealing it. Asked about the supposed trickle of aid coming into Gaza, the woman, says there is plenty of aid, but “all aid goes down (into Hamas tunnels).” “The aid does not reach the nation, all the people,” she says. When the journalist from the pro-Palestinian Qatari channel tells her that only a small amount of aid is coming in and it is all being distributed, she shakes her fingers at...
