The Houthis just blew up the Greek-flagged oil tanker Sounion in the Red Sea, spilling 150,000 barrels of oil—4 times worse than the Exxon Valdez

Obama didn't think Russia was a threat.
He loved him some Putin, didn't he?
That's why he wanted to be all flexible.

What a clown.

Such terrible acting. Keep your day job.

RIGHT!!! South Yemen is ADEN and its precincts . What else is new? It was the galvanizing area of the CIVIL war that plagued that land and for which the baathist dog Nasser donated parts of his military and which was supported by communist Russia and led to the downfall of the IMAM OF YEMEN. Russia wanted it for the SOVIET UNION. Egypt want it for the islamo nazi BAATHIST UAR. Lots of people died for the glory of that filth that aramco licks

Yes. Egypt fought for the communists. Saudi Arabia fought for the monarchy .

The lavon affair and the Suez crisis and the withdrawal of financing the Aswan dam drove Egypt into the arms of the Soviets. More of Israeli meddling and deception

.

Hilarious

republic pols back then would have opposed russian aggression anywhere in the world. And now we have you pussy bitch bending a knee to pootin.

Fuck you moron.... 90% of the money sent over to Ukraine for the war is being milked out of a taxpayers and delivers straight into the bank accounts of warlords, boomerang bucks coming back home to enrich legislators..... And Ukrainian generals living lavish lifestyles.
That's why Ukraine is being opposed It has nothing to do with political affiliations It's highway robbery of the American taxpayer.

You think that just because those things are being produced here that there's no cost?

Not so.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/11/29/ukraine-military-aid-american-economy-boost/

The article changes nothing. While I'm certainly happy for American manufacturing That has no bearing the cost to the tax payer or the pork and grift

Not so.

Always good to see American manufacturing benefiting.

That accounts for about 50 billion of the 170 billion so far.

The rest is delivered into an unaccountable black hole.

Ukraine has always been a corrupt money pit.

Yawn

And there's another.

Here's another.... One of many dozens.

Tip of the iceberg.

We are sending money into the hands of mafioso style criminals. Much like we didn't Afghanistan.

Ukraine says corrupt officials stole $40 million meant to buy arms for the war with Russia

Ukraine's security service says employees from an arms firm conspired with defense ministry officials to embezzle almost $40 million earmarked to buy mortar shells for the war with Russia.

That's why US policy was to get rid Shokin. He refused to prosecute corruption..The IMF and the UN didn't like him either. Ukraine needed to attract foreign investment so they needed to clean up their reputation for corruption.

Oh no!

I am so tired of things not being perfect.

We should definitely let the Russian maniac have his way, now.

They haven't really cleaned it up yet.... Ultimately Russia will win this war. They may get rid of Putin first though.

Weakness by Biden-Harris has its consequences.

From the Russia attack on Ukraine (a little inclusion isn't a problem said Joe Biden), to Iran, to this, and may other things.

The Democratic Party is taking us where no one wants to go, hell.

What weakness begets.

The United States has kept a leash on the US Navy responding only mildly. Take off the leash and let the Admirals and Generals do what they know how to do. You'll see things quiet down pretty goddamn fast after that.

Ukraine has just had another huge corruption scandal. You're right on it . I hope Russia doesn't win.

Just think! (Rhetorical device. I know you're not actually going to think.) ALL that money could stay in America if Democrats didn't have to have their wars!

Ukraine has been the biggest shit hole in Europe for the past 50 years.... Russia's not much better. It depends on what China will do. If China continues to circumvent the sanctions there's no way Ukraine can win.

The moment NATO steps in with feet on the ground nuclear weapons will fly.
