I am speaking of the latest announcement. Israel is sending a package to Ukraine.

Whether they were bullied by us, I don’t know, but they are sending things to Ukraine.

The U S government took those weapons, as allowed per contract, and sent them to Ukraine, not the Israelis.

Got link?

No he isn’t. This is Austin fear mongering for the money. They aren’t sending troops anywhere. An election is coming up in November and sending troops to Ukraine is a formula for a major drubbing at the polls.

Long list but what did they actually receive from The Big Guy?

The weapons the US took from Israel was a stash left there for use by America or Israel if needed.

We did take from that and send it to Ukraine. Not Israel.

That said, I was speaking of the latest offerings to Ukraine from Israel, not the stash we had stored there.

This bloated buffoon doesn’t know any such thing. I don’t like Putin any more than anyone else but if NATO would keep their fricking powder dry he would pose no threat to any of them. Squandering stockpiles of munitions and weaponry is exactly the wrong thing to do to maintain credible deterrence.

Not for nothing but Russia is barely beating Ukraine. And Ukraine is getting top level equipment. Russia is a paper tiger and the only way they could beat NATO is if they start lobbing nukes.

Is it just stone cold stupidity or is all of this part of some diabolical globalist plan?

Zelensky says Ukraine’s “Counteroffensive
Plan” was Leaked to Russia Ahead of Time
OOPS. Does Zelensky have any idea who did it?
Breitbart ^ | 02/26/2024
Posted on 2/26/2024, 6:15:18 AM by ChicagoConservative27

Russia knew Ukraine’s counteroffensive plans before they began in 2023, Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky said in frank admissions that came alongside a rare discussion of military casualties in the two-year war.

Ukraine’s top-secret war plan was leaked to Russia last year, presumably a contributing factor to what has been broadly accepted as a failed Spring counteroffensive in 2023, but this year Ukraine is creating decoy plans to keep the Kremlin guessing, President Zelensky has said.

Speaking at an event on Sunday commemorating the second anniversary of the relaunch of the now ten-year-old invasion and occupation of Ukraine by Russia, Zelensky revealed for the first time Russian intelligence had managed to acquire plans for its much-vaunted counteroffensive against the occupiers last year. He said: “Our counteroffensive action plans were on the Kremlin’s table before the counteroffensive actions began”.

I’m beginning to think the latter.

Ridiculous. Ukraine has been part of Russia for 300 years and NATO not pre-Nato Europe wasn’t ever drawn into war over it.

Even that putz, Macron said today there’d be no French troops sent. The Russians realize they can’t believe anything these fools say. For thirty years the West has been attempting to destroy Russia while Russia has reached out for compromise and peace with the West. The Russians understand the globohomos are like the Soviets of old, tell any lie, stab any back, spill whatever blood necessary to achieve their nefarious goals. I fear the die has already been cast in the Russian mind, bring this to a conclusion now while Russian military might is at its post Soviet zenith and NATO is out of ammo and men enough to fight a ground war.

Sounds like it’s about time to find a nice isolated island in the Pacific and hide from the missiles.

Lloyd Austin, who couldn’t be bothered to tell anybody that was in the hospital twice? That Lloyd Austin?

Now he’s put on a pedestal and his words are held on high? Oh hosannas! Lloyd Austin!!

Austin has his job because he is a minority, dei and all that crap. He’d be better off with driving a cab in Baltimore
