The War in Ukraine

[Fishbone Jones]

I’m going to respond the same way I do to small minded questions like that down here. Given the Ukrainians are in a shooting war with our greatest foe - it is in our best interests to equip and train them as best as we can, for if Ukraine falls, it will be American and Canadian troops fighting Russians in Europe.

Perhaps we should've been more proactive and stopped Biden and the US military industrial complex from starting the war in the first place. However, seeing as we didn't, I agree with your point. The bed's been made. We have to sleep in it now.

There is plenty more millions of taxpayer dollars that trudeau pisses away on useless shit around the world, that we could divert to our own military.

FFS, seriously bro, you letting MAGA brainworms get to you. I must have missed the fact that anyone else by Russia invaded Ukraine.

Besides the fact that “Biden and the US MIC started the Ukraine war” was one of the lines used by Tenet to spread Russian disinformation.

With charges and sanctions, US takes aim at Russian disinformation ahead of November election

The Biden administration has announced criminal charges, the seizure of internet domains and sanctions related to Russian disinformation efforts to influence the U.S. presidential election.

Which begs my point. If not ready then...

My opinion is that it’s best to proceed with the plan of equipping and training the Ukrainians as best as we can. I fail to believe the West cannot do more (and I know we can) and each Russian that the Ukrainians take off the chess board make it one less we won’t have to face, BUT also makes it clear to others that we will back our allies, and deter further aggression (like China into Taiwan).

One can argue the tepid response to the takeover of Crimea by Russia encouraged Putin to push further. Had the US rolled an Armoured Division into Ukraine in response and set them up near the contact line. I be guessing Ukraine would not be fighting for it's survival right now.
