If they want them quickly, the Ukies would do well to take some of the cash they are getting and approach the South Koreans for weapons...

Agreed with your comment though. Plus there’d be at least some experience with a production ramp-up. If we get into a on land dustup directly with China, we are literally going to need 100x present production.

This should have been done the 1st day the evidence swung to “Pooty will invade”.

You’d rather all that go to the globalists’ pockets, instead of a paltry $40-something billion.

A prayer from Bishop Kenneth Nowakowski, Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy, UK

God of peace, your prophet Isaiah promised swords would be turned into ploughshares,
and your Son’s mother, Mary, proclaimed the mighty would be put down and the humble exalted:
visit the people of Ukraine; deliver them from fear, violence, attack, injury, destruction, death;
and give them courage, solidarity and allies in their hour of vulnerability and sorrow.
Turn the hearts of those bent on war and invasion.
Strengthen the hand of all seeking to halt conflict, restore order, and pursue justice.
And make this moment of peril an occasion for your Holy Spirit to show your world the cost of conflict and our dependence on one another.
In Christ our Lord, who went to his death because of our hatred, and rose again because our hatred is never stronger than your indomitable love.
Amen.

Ukraine only received 16 HIMARS to date. A drop in the bucket. It’s pretty much total Russki incompetence that they have not taken out every single one by now.

OTOH, HIMARS is NOT a weapon designed to take out major bridges in the 1st place.

We have a lot of people on FR who think very poorly of the attitude of the signers of our Declaration of Independence, such as Patrick Henry...

The EU is in considerably worse shape than even the US when it comes to weapons production. Their best bet would be to focus on providing training, order the goodies from South Korea, and turn the weapons over to Ukraine.

By all means, let us give one our historical rivals more real world training on how to overcome some of our most advanced systems.

I would note that the article makes no mention of quantities. 100 per month would be a good start. If there are any extras they can fill the front end of the Polish order for 500.

Troll fail.

You do realize that your hero Zelensky is the big fan of Sodomites, don’t you ? Proliferating the globalist sodomite agenda is more important to him than saving lives in the middle of a war. It got him a big spread in Vanity Fair !

That’s ok. We are in a perfect position to observe, and counter, which historically is one of OUR strengths.

...Well, at least if we can get some sensible people like Trump or DeSantis in charge again, and for an extended period. THAT is the main problem.
