I’m totally against this war. Russia was not justified in starting wars with Ukraine. But Ukraine has to defend itself and their people.

I’m pro Ukraine not pro war. I’m anti Russia.

Minute few? Have you looked around lately? 75% are currently ineligible for military service right now due to obesity or other physical problems.

So you're either going to have to lower the standards or accept that we'll be paying a whole lot more disability.

So back to my original point: I don't see it as a net positive.

This will be a continuing problem. It's one way for the Russians to move the needle fast.

When is the last time the US Military actually fought for our freedom? 1945. And according to our founding documents our rights are endowed to us by birth.

Exactly. It is clearly an intentional strategy to personalize the conflict and to label people who support Ukraine and oppose Russia’s invasion as “war mongers”. The goal is to confuse the public as to who is the aggressor.

And if that document didn't have the world's most powerful military then it would be words only.

Dude, these are the same mother frickers that have lied to you for two years about Covid, and then one reporter decides to actually do his job and report, and these same people flip their shite making the reporter apologize. And you’re buying it from the same people who said if you wanted to visit a dying loved one or open your business that you were trying to murder people? You’ve either got to be insane or stupid to believe these people.


This really does not help any of you arguing that CBS took it down because they mistakenly said too much because you’re asking us to believe they lied for years and now this one time they let the cat out of the bag. Seems quite unlikely from a probability standpoint.

That said, my biggest issue was they cite an assessment from April and pass it off as current state when it’s August and the war is vastly different since then. It’s also a singular source and supposedly limited to non-NATO equipment. CBS did exactly what they always do, present a half truth to mislead people and get them all riled up. They’ve done nothing new here.

It's sad that everyone doesn't see that we are being screwed over during this conflict. People just totally ignore all the lies and all the missing weapons and money. I call these people the supporters of the Emperor's new clothes.

I’ll say this in regards to the report about 30% of aid getting to where it needed to be. At first I thought it was just poorly written and taken out of context because it was really just humanitarian or other NGO type aid being wasted and abused for fraud. But the quickness at which all the governments and agencies have freaked out about and fought against that report, combined with the fact that the US is sending a General to Kyiv to oversee the shipment and distribution of western supplied weapons in the wake of the report make believe that it’s true. I mean, is it so freaking crazy of an idea that there would be some Ukrainian arms dealers trying to make a buck off of America’s shiny new toys?


Maybe it was run to give an excuse for the exact action that makes you think it was suspicious to begin with, to get an American General in Ukraine. Maybe that’s pretext to oversee higher value equipment transfers or more direct advising of the war effort to Ukraines military?

Not suggesting that’s what happened as fact, just simply a possibility through your lens of propaganda that I disagree with a little less than the rest.

How do you talk about war when you have no military training...you can't using facts. Without military training you have no knowledge on military usage. And yes I believe EVERYONE should have to do at least 2years in the military.


Should they do it for free? Because if not, that’s a great way to ballon defense spending you’re protesting

There are still those few rare good journalists like say Clarissa Ward out there. They’re few and far between since they’re all almost immediately ousted when they dare say a truth against the narrative. I’m just saying it is the same people that said if you went to protest for businesses to reopen that you’re killing grandma and then turn on a dime a week later telling you that you have to go protest for George Floyd because racism is a more dangerous disease than Covid, but it’s still trying to kill grandma to protest the lockdowns. These are the same people you now think are telling you the truth on this. Whenever they all flip out and agree on something to silence a journalist, there’s a good chance that journalist is right.


No, these are the same people you’re trying to convince everyone isn’t lying this time after all the others.

I’m sure it’s not that hard. Lots of NATO countries already use MiGs. Some of those countries have probably already mounted HARMs on their jets. If not, I’m sure Raytheon or whoever makes the missile has researched and developed in an attempt to sell the missile to those countries by now.

The arming system has to be digitized for that munition but the hard part is modifying bomb/missile racks on an aircraft(MIG) they have nothing in common with.

But apparently that has been figured out.
