What happened to Elon Musk this past week showcases how completely unhinged and dangerous U.S. policy to Ukraine has become.
The condemnation began when the Washington Post published excerpts from a new biography on Musk revealing that he turned down a Ukrainian request to help launch a major sneak attack in September 2022 on the Crimean port of Sevastopol.
There were numerous, legitimate reasons why Musk refused to activate his Starlink internet services for Ukraine to carry out the unprecedented, surprise attack on Russian naval vessels: Musk was providing terminals to Ukraine for free; he was not on a military contract at that time; the late-night request came directly from the Ukrainian—not American—government; and Starlink had never been activated over Crimea because of U.S. sanctions on Russia. Most importantly, Musk was concerned that enabling the attack could result in serious "conflict escalation."
He worried that he was being asked to turn on Starlink for a "Pearl Harbor like attack" and had no wish to "proactively take part in a major act of war," possibly provoking a Russian nuclear response.

Are Ukrainians capable of flying f16s?
Every American should be willing to face Nuclear war for Ukraine and President Zelenskyy. He is almost single handedly fighting for all of western civilization. Every German Frenchman and Briton should be willing to die for Ukraine—so too every Canadian and American. Besides, there is little to worry about as Russians are so stupid their nukes will not explode and their rockets never lift off. Ukraine has proven they are totally incompetent cowards, subhuman boasters only. See how they run in fear as the Challenger and Leopard Tanks smash though their rows of dragons teeth. In a month Russia will surrender and Putin shoot himself. It will all be over by Christmas.
I have a major West Coast naval base less than 3 km away.
“The Biden regime and its socialist/LGBT allies are a bigger threat to America than Putin.”
Putin is an ally against these perverts.
I agree with you. It’s time for Putin to be replaced by a more rational leader.
I just want us out of this whole mess. We have zero strategic interests in Ukraine.
A pox on both sides.

You’re doing that WAY too well. =applause=
So you are saying that anyone on here who doesn’t toe the Russian line are criminals?
Good to know.
You must be the luckiest troll on FR, protected beyond belief. You can voice your desires for mass-murder of 160,000,000 people in Russia, Belarus... post death threats to me like you did last night, and keep carrying on as if you’ve said or done nothing wrong.
You still lack any proper reading comprehension skills. I mentioned not one word about Russia in the original post. You’ve got Russia and Putin on the brain so much that they live rent free in your head.
Thank you for the tips on the Oktoberfest in Mount Angel, Oregon! It looks like a great time! Can’t wait to see you in your trachten and maybe you can get your friend Lavrov to show up in that cute blue dirndl of his!
