i can't believe the audacity of world-leaders, imposing a multi-year war on the poor Ukranians.
either hand 'm the weapons to win this fight, or force Zelensky to give up the far eastern and south-eastern sections of Ukraine in negotiations already!

It does appear this war is designed to benefit the US war machine over all other things.

Only one world leader has imposed a multi-year war on the Ukrainians. Can you guess who?

Yes, Putin wanted our war machine to make big profits.

Yeah.

Okay.


Sure.

He had help...

How?.... money that should go to our military reediness is being sent to Ukraine... our troops are starting to complain about having to take parts off some vehicles to make one work again just like under Obama....
We haven't even rebuilt the weapons and and aircraft biden left in Ukraine.... so I'd sure like to know how this benefits the USA....

 

[Rambunctious]

I never thought I'd see Americans become in favor of the USA funding another war after we were bogged down in Afghanistan for 20 years....
I really don't get that....

A real diplomatic failure on the part of Sleepy Joe.


This would have never happened during the Trump Administration, and the reason is clear why its happening now.

Both Uncle Pooty and Zelenskyy have dirt on the Corrupt Biden Family. By all rights, Hunter and Sleepy Joe could be sent off to the gulags of either of those great nations.

These other leaders know it, and are extorting Biden.

 

[Rambunctious]

If Joe Biden would open the oil spigot he closed when he took office that would bankrupt Russia... if we became energy independent again Russian oil would not be selling and Putin would have to pull his troops out.... the people around Biden know this so what is stopping them?.... the climate?... please... look at Ukraine's destruction already....

Do you not think Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, and the others are profiting off this war? They are the war machine.

It just isn't Biden, Macron , and the other Eurotrash leaders, decided to spurn Trump's offer to supply them with national gas instead of Russia.

But Germany and the EU went with Russia, and that played right into Uncle Pooty's hands.

 

[Rambunctious]

The fact is that many of our leaders have found ways to get rich off war and war funding and they don't want to let that go... how disgusting is that...
The two things libs use to warn us about were the military industrial complex and big Pharma... and both entities have intertwined into the democrat party....

It’s always the same, yet it seems most Americans still can’t see it.

Oh Okay I see what you meant.... I don't refer to weapons manufacturers as the US war machine... but I agree with you on that... and of course the politicians get cushy jobs at Raytheon after they leave office....

 

[Rambunctious]

If you want Russia to pull out in defeat.. then in the words of Palin drill baby drill.....

[Kilroy2]

There is some talk now about a coup against Putin. Something that was never mention in the past is now being whispered.

Putin has his own Vietnam. An unpopular war except that in the US they just elect a new guy and in Russia well , he may be lucky to make it out alive.

Former Putin aide: Coup a ‘real possibility’

A former speechwriter for Russian President Vladimir Putin predicted that a military coup was possible for the country in the next year, pointing to a deteriorating economy and the growing unpopula…
