    Pouring money and equipment into the Ukrainian black hole ...

    Whatever we give Zelensky in the way of money, tanks, helos and
    ammunition, it will never be enough. What he has wanted from the
    beginning of this war that was totally unnecessary is to draw us into
    a direct conflict with Russia. The more I read about this man the
    more I dislike him. Sooner or later Russia will carry out it's threat of
    striking what they call a 'legitimate target' - our transportation of
    supplies into Ukraine. I'm sure that would delight Zelensky.
    Biden is not only depleting our strategic petroleum reserves after
    giving away an Army's worth of military equipment to the Taliban,
    but he's now giving away our military assets. It's as though he
    thinks military equipment like money grows on trees.
    All this stuff has to be replaced but I suspect it will not be.
    Democrats love cutting military budgets yet they also love sending
    it into harms way at the drop os a hat.

    Don't forget gay marriage while you're at it.

    Seriously, most see giving arms to the Ukrainians is a good move, on the reasoning that Russia won't stop until they lose. Do you have a problem with Russia losing?

            Could not care less about whether or not putin and his people like or do not like anything NATO or the US does to assist Ukraine. Let them blow a gasket. I don't care. Finland will be going the right way. Sweden will finally do the same. Poland will find their backbone. It's all good. Give Ukraine all the weapons they can shoot. They will use them on the russians. That's what all those bullets, bombs, missiles, airplanes, ships were built for ... killing threats to this nation. Last I noticed, neither russia or china are remotely interested in any sort of good future for the United States of America. If someone gets all bent out of shape at the idea of the US helping then let them review all that has been poured into South Korea, Tawian, South Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, and umpteen banana republics down central and south America. That was all supposed to be terribly critical to American strategic defense needs. Ukraine is a great way for the US to help a nation that actually believes in real freedom and that is willing to go toe to toe with a tin pot dictator giving him way more than he bargained for when he first thought he'd just roll right in and take the place over. Much better to support Ukraine and let them kick putin where it hurts ... in his pride, etc. Sincerely. bruce.

                When you watch a bully ball kick a kid you later you wish you had slapped him around some. The easy confrontations are, ah..easy. When you think you shouldn't maybe you should.
                If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

                    Getting the latest 800 million in armaments to where it will do the most good is the problem.

                      Name one from the Ukraine war and expound on it.
