Russia - Ukraine war part ll. News and Discussions

That’s $15B in weapons/support the US would be sending. That’s a lot of money that will buy plenty of weapons for Ukraine. That’s already a quarter of what the US sent over 3 years under Biden.

Democrats ran on affordability. We all know that was a bunch of bull.

Rather than sending $15B in assistance to Ukraine, how about instead spending that $15B here at home to address the affordability crisis that was actually of their doing.

He posted the same thing in a question to me in one of the threads.

US Democrats can propose anything they want, pass it, and send to the President's desk.

Trump has a veto pen. Congress has a 4% success rate in 200 years of overturning a President's veto.

In this case, do not look for Republicans to get on board with Democrats to overturn a certain Trump veto.

They’ll tack it on to the NDAA as amendments and Ukraine has broad support among Republicans. Don’t be so sure this doesn’t get done.

Sections 219 and 224 do NOT have a lot of broad support so it is going to remain hung up in the Senate.

Russian casualties continue to rise

So say the Ukrainians, whose statements are not worth a pinch of 'coon sh!t.

Zelly the Narcofuhrer sez that the AFU has only suffered ~30k irreversible losses! His credability factor is sub-zero.

Maybe you meant to say that Ukrainian critical infrastrcuture continues to be demolished?

BTW your warporn pics of refineries provide a nice confirmation of what I've been saying. Look at the pic titled Kstovo on Nov 2 - with the exception of 1x actual fire, 6x of the hot spots are clearly the releases from flare towers, ie the plant is being depressurised as an emerg response which is a typical executive action of any hydrocarbon facility following a fire event.

NAFOs are simple creatures and don't have any real understanding of the images they see or the bumper-stickers they read.

Tbf, what Iran has done for Russia is massive, by (a) diverting NATO resources away from Ukraine, and (b) forcing some hostile nations into a position where they are again obliged to purchase Russian commodities. Western Europe is probably far more committed to the sanctions effort than the USA ever would be.

NATO resources haven't been diverted, NATO is still supplying Ukraine. NATO don't seem to be supplying USA or Israel with munitions not openly at least. Iran didn't start the war so this wasn't planned USA and Israel made the first move on Iran. Although Iran did help Russia in terms of drones at least until Russian production was up and running. Iran is still an ally. The fact that patriot missile deliveries were delayed was only down to the fact USA had underestimated Iran and instead of folding within days ha e kept the pressure on and this caused a shortage of patriots. That was a mistake by USA that ended up having an indirect issue for Ukraine supplies.
