[quote]Ukraine is stepping up counter attacks as a result of no longer having to ration materiel. [/quote] Ukraine very much still needs to ration materiel. The first drawdown of $1 billion is fine, because it'll take us time to send that, but there will need to be another one in a few weeks. ...
[quote]According to my cousin who works for Scalise the administration never presented a plan for Ukraine to win. The House republicans had to come up with the plan themselves. Jake Sullivan was just wanting to give Ukraine enough to kill Russian and Ukrainian troops until the election was over.[/qu...
[quote] I think about all the regulars in this thread are conservative Republicans. GOP_Tiger and FalconsBravesDawgs have both said they are voting for Biden over Trump.. [/quote] Folks, notice how casually this scumbag lies. He knows that I said I am undecided about whether to vote 3rd par...

This turned out to be one of the most overhyped weapons of the war. If Ukraine had received it six months earlier, it might have been a lot more effective. [link=(https://twitter.com/John_A_Ridge/status/1783514363841630309?t=ZFMV3WeyBpaJahSZWa75yQ&s=19)]LINK[/link] [quote]Speaking @CSIS, Unde...
[quote]South Korea and Japan are considered part of the West, but not actually contributing. [/quote] Not true. They are both contributing, and Japan is contributing a lot, but most of it isn't lethal aid. South Korea is contributing on the down low and the major partner of the Czech artillery ...

[quote] Or what? He hurts his hamstring more and only has 6 months to recover?[/quote] No, he hurts his right leg, which is the leg with all the previous injuries, because he's compensating for a pulled left hamstring. The danger is an achilles or ACL in the right leg....

[quote]Why don’t they announce where it will all be delivered, what day and what place?[/quote] Well, I did notice that they didn't specify the numbers of everything. In the past, we'd know exactly how many Bradleys are going, etc....

[quote]How ironic. [/quote] More like a non-sequitur, considering that Storm Shadow and SCALP have a much longer range than even ATACMS. Our European allies have been the ones unafraid of "escalation" and have been the ones who have provided Ukraine with long-range strike capability....
[quote]The bill for Americans to foot the bill of building Ukraine back better after the war is over will be amazing. Really. “If you don’t a have a money, just give us a creedit!” Russian War Reparations will do that... I hear Russia has oil and natural gas, that could be managed by some ot...
