US sure seems to be a step behind Russia at every turn of this invasion. From sending IFVs and tanks to Himars and rockets to anti air and approving F-16s. All the way to claiming we’ll support Ukraine for years then after 1 year saying “sorry all our money has dried up”. Super weird to witness in real time. Just how many dark horses does Russia have mucking shit up via the GOP? Reagan and every other past Republican president would be rolling in their graves if they saw what that party has become. Now they just bitch about abortions and exploited mexican laborers all day long while lacing their pockets with big pharma/health insurance industry cash that fucks over the american people while they try to convince voters that we should further erode social systems like social security, because communism.
It’s a funding issue again, not a short supply problem.
>But the White House and Pentagon officials have warned that the United States will soon be unable to keep Ukraine’s Patriot batteries supplied with interceptor missiles, due to their high cost, the NYT said.
Money talks, lobbies and influences. When you are an Oligarch, you can make things go your way.
One fact tells you everything you have to know the sitrep.
The folks on the front-line are fighting hard for Ukraine. The folks in the Pentagon are doing their job to help them.
The folks in Congress are still on winter break.
How fast can Raytheon produce these missiles. They also build iron dome munitions. Must be working nights.
russia humiliates USA even without starting war against USA and just for 2 years of full scale invasion to Ukraine. in Vietnam ussr was need much more time. China even didn’t step in game.
Come on, we only spend *trillions* on defense. It’s not like it’s infinite.
The day the funding stops and Ukraine unfortunately loses will be the day the USA will not be trusted to be the police of the world it wanted to be so hard, Putin will see this and continue influencing the middle east, the beauroctatic slug fest that is current EU will either have to militarise heavily or keep ignoring the problem until the next invasion comes, sad really
If NK is sending arms to russia to use against Ukraine, it is now fair game to send Ukraine ANY weaponry to use against russia. Rules of engagement have altered….
US wants to bomb Palestinians more than Russians.
This sucks. Give them what they need. Fuck russia.
Am i insane or have we heard the same thing for like a week?
I recently put a few Gs on raytheon stock. I suspect the next decade should keep the sector as a whole busy, sadly.
