Putin will win if Israel funding split from Ukraine, Blinken and Austin tell senators

The heads of the State Department and Pentagon on Tuesday warned senators that should lawmakers approve funding for Israel but not Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin will win.
Speaking during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin urged senators to keep intact the Biden administration’s $106 billion supplemental request for Israel, Ukraine and the Indo-Pacific.
Though many lawmakers in both parties support a joint package, House Republicans skeptical of additional Ukraine aid have threatened to sink the plan. And Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is pushing an Israel-only package that would also cut billions in funding for the Internal Revenue Service.
Austin and Blinken warned that without continued U.S. funding for Ukraine, Russian forces would be sure to defeat Kyiv, with wider consequences for the globe.
“It’s hard to put an exact timeline on how long it would take,” Austin said when asked how long until Russia wins should the U.S. fail to provide more aid to Kyiv. “I can guarantee that without our support, Putin will be successful … If we pull the rug out from under [Ukraine] now, Putin will only get stronger.”
Blinken, meanwhile, said “it would do both terrible harm to our values, but also to our core interests” to leave Ukraine out in the cold.

If Ukraine gets money with a separate bill or with a combo bill, how does the change in bill format help Putin win?

Isn't it time for France, Germany and the rest of Europe to step up and do their part? Their failure to be responsible in their own part of the world is criminal.

Can you think of less credible heads of anything (public or private)? When is the last time any of these frickers were right about anything of importance?

Austin's statement is pure BS and he knows it.
What Austin knows and most competent military strategist know is Ukraine isn't going to win a war of attrition....Ukraine needs hundred of thousands of additional bodies to defeat Russia, that means Ukraine needs the soldiers from other countries to help them fight and possibly defeat Russia.

But they can win a guerrilla war but that doesn’t line the pockets of the MIC.

I'm sure the UK, Poland, Germany, France, and the gang would be happy to help out.

They dont see Russia as a threat beyond Ukraine its obvious, but more importantly they arent getting a cut of the graft so they dont care.

Ukraine couldn't win a food fight.

Do I give a frick if Putin wins Ukraine? I want to stop funding Ukraine.

Ukraine has received around 400 billion in total aid over the last 2 years.
If you can't win after that you were going to lose regardless unless a bigger nation fought for you.

That war was already occurring before Russia went all in for the invasion.
