“Denmark has pledged its “entire artillery” stocks to Ukraine”

Sounds like Ukraine is in line for another 30 shells (about 5 minutes worth over there).

Please explain why Putin is more damaging to the American middle-class than Mitch McConnell.

“what’s wrong with you people?”

Yep, the European leaders seem VERY HAPPY in that picture from Munich, partying down with LOBSTER and Hamburgers, as it’s ‘just Ukrainians’ getting mowed down in their back yard.

Not huge, but not nothing.

The average barrel is good for about 2500 rounds and then it is considered worn out and the accuracy goes down.

Given Putin’s aga and position and the way he thinks....at this point in time....Putin isn’t going to attack any other countries. Why would he? He’s got enough on his plate. He wants that Port, and the two areas that had referendum...and which had special status since Ukraine became dependent.

I can’t think of one normal NATO leader, our own Biden include. They are all mental cases.

I read the entire article and it does not mention just how many artillery piece is an ammunition is to be supplied from the great superpower of Denmark.

After sponging off America to provide their defense for over 75 years I highly doubt that the gift will make any difference. It will take months and two train cars to get this mighty aid to the Ukraine, just in time for the Russians to accept it.

I used to think NATO was a misguided and bloated bureaucracy that lost its original mission and needed reform

I realize now - its an actual enemy of the US Republic and average Americans.

Well, you’re the general, but isn’t unwise to give all of one’s artillery out?

Russia obviously has no need to worry, as your average Chicago street gang is better armed than Denmark.

I have officially pledged to give all my Patriot missile systems to Ukraine. :-O

If Europe wants to help Ukraine so much, why don’t we SELL ammunition to them to give to Ukraine. Why do we have to GIFT it to them, and add to our deficits?

Why the hell does Denmark have artillery anyway? Like anyone is coming for them, like they would fight, and like anyone would notice if they did.

Yet, you are aligned with Hillary, Biden, Obama, Hollywood, all of Academia, the CIA, Sean Penn, Ambromovitch the Spirit Cooker, Trudeau, Macron, the Vindman twins, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, Ursula Von der Crazy who along with Freeland have nazi grandpas, Schwab, you name it.

They are all 100% on the Banderist side. That’s un-American. But you aren’t American anyway, so I guess it’s a wash.
