How much will that cost our debt holders…I mean American taxpayers….and what’s in it for us?

 

[Lakhota]

Maybe Poland because they are trained in/on Russian fighter jets.

Are you aware that in 1994 we convinced Ukraine to give up the largest portion of the former USSR’s nuclear arsenal by promising them independence and security assurances? The UK promised them this, too. As did Russia, but given their history with Russia (the Holodomor, etc.) they agreed because of US and UK.

What’s in it for us is merely our reputation on the world stage. Our ability to declare we have a national conscience.

European plan to donate fighter jets to Ukraine collapses​

A proposed deal to allow Ukrainian pilots to fly fighter jets donated by European Union countries has fallen apart.

Over the course of a confusing 48 hours, the EU announced it had brokered an arrangement for member states to allow Ukrainian pilots to start flying their used Russian fighter planes, only to have those countries deny there was any such deal even as Kyiv trumpeted the impending arrival of the jets.

The dissolution of the deal comes as European countries lined up Monday to announce new weapons packages for Ukraine, from anti-armor and anti-air rockets to artillery and medical supplies.

But the announcement Sunday by EU security chief Josep Borrell that fighter jets were also on their way appeared to be a game-changer for European military assistance. Borrell was forced to walk his pronouncement back somewhat by Monday, acknowledging that any transfers wouldn’t come from the EU itself, but would instead be donated “bilaterally” by individual EU countries.

A little late to save face now isn’t it?
The inept almost dead dude in the Oval Office should have had troops posturing in Ukraine long ago…but his nutless ass didn’t, so now we should stay out of it and let it play out.

I believe that the Polish Air Force flies MiG fighter jets which the Ukrainians should be able to fly. I would love for them to use the A-10 warthog as it is a tank killer and shreds armor.

Strange how liberals suddenly became Neocons wishing for further escalation.

I understand why world leaders are conflicted - but damn...

The Ukrainians ain't getting these fighters for one reason and one reason only, the psychopathic Biden, needs Putin's direct aid in securing the psychopathic Biden a fake Iranian nuke deal, which is also why Biden ain't even sanctioning Putin's gas station! Do any of you even begin to realize just how fucking depraved this is of Biden???

The white house has said it does not wish to aggravate Putin further by supplying Ukraine with those jets, and that is not the only thing Biden either slow walks, or denies outright, he has also made it abundantly clear that all of those Stingers Trump wanted shipped to Ukraine, don't go anywhere, indeed, Ukraine just received a couple dozen of them just this last week for first time!

How about that fucking psychopathic Biden, lets hear the cheers ring forth....


Among the many "err" inexplicable Biden administration moves,

How the Bidenites Mishandled Things In Ukraine

On February 25, with Russian soldiers just inside Kyiv, the Americans offered to evacuate President Volodymyr Zelensky from the city. He answered the Bidenites with ill-concealed exasperation: “I need weapons, not a ride.” He, like many Ukrainians, has been appalled by how slow Washington has...

Biden has denied, slow-walked arms to Kyiv

There is a behind-the-scenes story to President Biden’s sudden announcement Saturday of more arms for Ukraine as Vladimir Putin tries to swallow up the former Russian possession.

Why didn't the U.S. provide Ukraine with a better air defense system?

"We didn't want to provoke Putin," said an official. "How did that work out?"

This is still BREAKING NEWS on CNN:

The US is working with Poland on the possibility of Poland providing fighter jets to Ukraine along with consulting with other allies, a White House spokesperson confirms, as Ukrainian President Zelensky is pushing for eastern European countries to send fighter aircraft into his country.

As part of the conversations with Poland, the US is determining what “capabilities we could provide to backfill Poland if it decided to transfer planes to Ukraine,” said the spokesperson, who would not detail what backfill options are under consideration.

The spokesperson said sending fighter jets into Ukraine is a “sovereign decision for any country to make” and noted there are a host of logistics to work through, including how the aircraft would be transferred from Poland to Ukraine.

Two lawmakers participating in a zoom call with the Ukrainian president earlier Saturday said Zelensky said Poland has signaled its prepared to send MiG fighter jets but that “they are only waiting for you [the US] to allow it.”

The time to "do something" was BEFORE Russia invaded.

Now it's too late... Russia is committed.

Biden was standing around with his thumb up his ass while Russia built up an invasion force on Ukraine's border.

That was the time to loan Ukraine aircraft, ship in ammunition and weapons.

Before there was active war.

Well that is the convenient tale of the day, and on bare facts true.

...but it's not quite that simple.

Why did only Russia wind up with nuclear weapons after the USSR collapsed?

That's a LIE. President Biden has been warning Ukraine about the Russian buildup on its borders for weeks/months - but Ukraine didn't believe him. Also, we are a NATO member for a reason. I can just hear you NaziCons bashing Biden if he had attacked Russian in any way without NATO and EU/UK as partners.

After the Afghanistan withdraw debacle "the world" sees the US for what it is under the current "leadership"......Divided with no national conscience or resolve.....Why do you think Putin chose this time to get all froggy with the West?

Sweet Jesus how fucking old are you? Look at this fucking sub-moron, he still refers to Americans as Nazis, which is utterly devoid of self-awareness, the fucking fascists you dumb fuck are you, and your woke comrades! You don't even know what Nazi is an acronym of, let alone what fascism even is, even as you nakedly embrace and perpetuate it upon innocent people! Dear God, I swear, some of these fucks are more than worthy of a retroactive abortion, literally finish off the intellectual abortion fascist democrats already performed upon them....

Sounds like the weapons manufacturers are going to be making money hand over fist.

Yippy.....more war thanks to the Democrats.
