It seems pretty obvious that Poland does NOT want the responsibility of sending the planes.

Pettifogger can do his whitewashing here, too. But, this deserves a mention on the O-T.

Making another move on the airport.

NEW: Russia's military is moving armored vehicles and equipment to the northeast and southwest of Antonov Airport, less than a hour from downtown Kyiv.
Senior U.S. defense officials have said that Russia has repeatedly tried to take the airport since invading.

Senior administration officials told The New York Times that several times over the course of 2018, Mr. Trump privately said he wanted to withdraw from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Current and former officials who support the alliance said they feared Mr. Trump could return to his threat as allied military spending continued to lag behind the goals the president had set.
New York Times Derangement Syndrome prevents any of the cult members from reading that.
A leader of a NATO country postured for pulling out because he was tired of his country being daddy to the free riding passengers?
Yeah, I'm sure that the DoD, wo have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo in NATO, and the NYT, who had a vested interest in propagating Trump hysteria, had absolutely no intentions of writing a salacious article in order to advance their own mutual interests. IT'S ON THE LEVEL GUYS!!!

Stalled and frustrated, Putin will likely double-down in the coming weeks, CIA says
CIA Director William Burns said Tuesday that Russia's invasion of Ukraine has fallen far short of Vladimir Putin's expectations and he believes the Russian leader is likely to escalate military operations.
"I think Putin is angry and frustrated right now. He's likely to double-down and try to grind down the Ukrainian military with no regard for civilian casualties," Burns testified before the House Intelligence Committee. "His military planning and assumptions were based on a quick, decisive victory."
Burns was one of several intelligence chiefs who appeared before the committee's annual hearing on worldwide threats.
The CIA director said Putin premised his war on four false assumptions: he thought Ukraine was weak, he believed Europe was distracted and wouldn't mount a strong response, he thought Russia's economy was prepared to withstand sanctions, and that Russia's military had been modernized and would fight effectively.
"He's been proven wrong on every count," said Burns, who served as the U.S. ambassador to Russia from 2005-8.
The CIA director says he now expects Putin to escalate military operations, while the Ukrainians will continue to resist fiercely. The likely result, he says, is "an ugly next few weeks" of fighting for control of Ukraine's cities, including the capital Kyiv.

They must have given up on Hostomel, and picked another in the general area of Kyiv.
Or, is it the same airport? I don't know.
