  1. THE AID TO UKRAINE IS NOT REALY FREE MONEY .. Its more like buying yourself a new cell phone and giving the old away to your kid, and claiming you gave your kid $2,000 (the price of the new phone) because he now has your old cell phone and you have the new one !!! NOW LET ME EXPLAIN  The aid is not pallets of cash. It’s in the form of military equipment, assigned a value, that is donated,”. “That equipment is usually older and would be replaced in the next few years anyway, at a cost. I’m sure she doesn’t understand this.” Still, the largest bucket of overall U.S. aid committed to Ukraine — more than $46 billion, is military support in the form of equipment NOT cash !! The military equipment has been pulled directly from existing U.S. military old SURPLUS inventory that has a shelf date that soon will be past that date ; and will be needing replacement anyway this way US. gets to restock its military equipment with more newer updates versions and send the soon to by out of date to Ukraine and as a bonus US. military saves the money it will have used for destroying the old military equipment as well !!  Also it is true other parts of the Aid / funding will be used to purchase new weapons and this will be sent to Ukraine; but all sales must be and will be bought from the US industrial complex industry and American manufacturers; this supports local American communities in states (over 33 states ) that produce weapon's this helps marginalized communities and sates get a solid cash influx / bust into their local economy and supports jobs within the factors that will be producing those new weapons.-. (So the money doesn't go into the pockets of Zelensky and fiends thats a myth pumped out by Russian propaganda and regurgitated by "pathetic tools" of the kremlin like Tucker Carlsen ) Members of Congress have questioned how closely the U.S. is tracking its aid to Ukraine to ensure that it is not subject to fraud or ending up in the wrong hands. The Pentagon’s inspector general told lawmakers at a hearing, that his office has found no evidence of such corruption or wrongdoing, but cautioned that investigations are only in their early stages. The Pentagon’s inspector general also informed the Members of Congress that despite claims to the contrary, the United States is not sending bags of unaccounted-for cash to Ukraine. Most US contributions go to military aid, including weapons and equipment made by American defense contractors who employ communities across the country. When the United States spends money to purchase military equipment as part of an international aid package, the materiel may go overseas, but the money and jobs stay in America. Similarly, appropriations for the US Foreign Military Financing program provide incentives for NATO allies and partners to secure US-made capabilities. This translates to more business for US companies and sustained employment for rural communities in which they operate. For instance, Lockheed Martin, maker of the HIMARS—which has been central to Ukraine’s counteroffensive—plans to increase its Camden, Arkansas facility’s workforce by 20%, and recently announced increased profit projections through the end of the year. Similarly, General Dynamics has committed to building new production facilities in Mesquite, Texas, bringing money and jobs to the region. Change like this takes place only when the Pentagon sends strong and stable market signals to the defense industry, giving it the confidence to expand and hire. In short, the numbers suggest that continued support for Ukraine is a win-win for Ukrainians and the American people. The United States can continue to defend stability and democratic governance across the globe, while at the same time boosting American industrial output and advancing US economic interests. So like i have said; This is more like buying yourself a new cell phone and giving the old away to your kid, and claiming you gave your kid $2,000 (the price of the new phone) because he now has your old cell phone and you have the new one !!! ITS A WIN WIN !!

  2. Putin did not begin the undercover proxy-war in 2014 so that it would end in peace, independency and prosperity for Ukraine and its people. and he did not start a all out war in 2022 for the independency and prosperity for Ukraine and its people This war does not hinder Putin, it facilitates his goals instead. Putin started it so it would end with the defeat of Ukraine and the Ukrainian peoples/ nations aspirations of true self-government true independence and democratic nation, that was fare away from the hegemony control and orbit of Russia … IN OTHER words with our collapse of Ukrainian society. It helps him keep Ukraine on the Kremlin hook and hegemony control and helps Putin feel himself as an influential leader negotiating with the West. So, why would he need peace? And before someone starts up about Russia right to protect itself from the "western incursion and decadent western incorrectness of political arrogance" (whatever that means ) and therefor Russian needs a "a broader sphere of interest in Ukraine " Let me ask you this ; Who gives Putin the right to have "a broader sphere of interest in Ukraine " we live in 2022 not 1822 ??? What about the people who live in "that so called sphere of interest" that is the sovereign country of Ukraine don't they (the Ukrainian ppl.) have an " sphere of interest in Ukraine itself " ? Shall the Ukrainians just bend their knee and behave as slaves, and become some sort of quasi 2nd class nation/ country, and have their society run under the heal and accept being kicked by Kremlin's boot of the " sphere of Russian interest " ; Should Ukraine just roll over and let Russia controlled Ukraine for the sole benefit of Putins klan agenda and the geo political intrs. of the Moscow Kremlin kleptocracy elites?: And let Ukraine become some sort of quasi geographical entity for political advantages of the Kremlin ? Or should Ukraine stand up and fight against such tyrannical things as PUTINS "sphere of interest" as the independent European self governing state it is FIGHT for freedom, sovereignty and self-rule ?? FACT !!! Ukraine was forced into this war by Russia not Russia by Ukraine (or anyone else ) Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has no choice he needs to now be the president of a country, that is in a war defending its country and ppl. against a brutal evil aggressor. And the authorities of the aggressor country do not want any peace. (If the Russia army stops fighting today and goes home back to Russia tomorrow there will be NO war If Ukraine stops fighting today there will be NO Ukraine !! ) Russians doesn't want to be a part of the western democracy thats fine Ukraine does Ukrainian society has nothing good to say about marximen or wokeisem or Russian imperialism they among Ukraine's stand absolutely equal and are seen with the disdain, loathing and contempt !!! But like I say if Russia has no intrs. and they feel Russia society values and norms living is so much better than the despicable arrogant western world, just stay in Russia stop living inside the west stop buying houses , sending your kids to western schools for a western education and holidays to the western world and stop using western products and technology no prob you go do you; you go be Russia no one is stopping you !! Why not try and stop emulating the west will at the same time rejecting the west and then on top of it claiming to be its equal .. here is a thought if you are the emulating the west you are a copy and a copy is just hard core evidence that the original is the better !! If your Russki Mir (Russian World ideology of imperialism and expansionism ) was better than the western world; why do you not 100% just stick to being Russian why are you emulating everything that is western !! The answer is clear because its better than your Russki Mir !! Ukraine, Georgia , Moldova the Baltic's and the rest of Eastern Europe don't want your Russian world (KGB Putin Stalinism strong man BS ) they want western democracy freedom and choice so let them make their own future there own mistakes and there own success those ppl. countries and nations don't want your Moscow /Kremlin HEGEMONY called Russki Mir or your so called Russian greatness of special rights of so called 3rd Rome !!   Let's take a look at Ukraine and the same goes for Georgia and other countries that Moscow wants to bully and kick around !! Ukraine is a sovereign nation with rights and should be free to govern itself. Russia as a political entity has never had the best interest of the Ukraine and its people at heart. The Ukrainians have a distinct and rich culture, their own language, and a desire for self-rule, liberty and freedom to make decisions of its own. Russia wants to control Ukraine so it can obtain its resources for its own benefit (as has happened throughout history). Ukraine in its east and south has in-fact the 3rd biggest oil and gas reservers in Europe and should those resources start getting taped and sold to the west then Russia has a massive competitor on its hands for the European market !! You don't believe me google Ukraine shield gas reserves !! Russian control has never been for the benefit of the Ukrainian people. BUT HERE"S THE REAL POINT: even if it had been, Ukraine is still a sovereign nation and has the right to rule itself!!! The Russian state has sought to control Ukraine and to deceive the rest of the world into believing that there is no Ukrainian culture or language, and that Ukraine is simply a dissident Russian state through use of propaganda and oppression has repeatedly attempted to wipe out the Ukrainian people and culture. Do I need to mention the millions of Ukrainians killed by the Russian government? The fear and repression of Ukraine under Russian rule? The families lost behind the "Iron Curtain?" The Holodomor genocide when Russia killed 10 mill Ukrainians in 1933 - 1934 and after that replaced then with ethnic Russians manly in the east of Ukraine (todays Donbas ) for crying out loud? And that is why after 1991 the Ukrainians rally around their rich and beautiful culture - because it is THEIRS. And because they deserve a voice of their own, and to live free from the oppression of foreign state that seeks to exploit and obliterate them! Russian controlled soviet union former satellite states like Poland, Romania, and Czech the Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect ect ...couldn't wait to join NATO and the EU to get as fare away from Russian hegemony control as fast as the possibly can at the time . If the Russians weren't suchaaaaholes, they wouldn't have to worry about EU NATO and former satellite states like Poland, Romania, and Czech the Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect ect running too the front door of EU and NATO . (PS : yes i agree not all is perfect in the west but is why better and has always been why better than anything Russia has come up with in history ; And that is why ppl from all over the world (including Russians ) move to Europe ,UK and US in the millions !! ;  For all its faults that the western world has and it has a few, it still is 10000 times better than Russia , Africa or china !!! I mean no one is building a wall to hold ppl. inside like Russian controlled Soviet Union did the US is in fact building walls to stop ppl. for coming inn and so dose European countries as well )j

  3. NATO is a "threat" to Russia in the sense that a cop on the beat is a "threat" to a mugger. NATO wouldn't have been formed in the first place if Stalin had not rejected the US offer of the same Marshall Plan which so benefited the rest of Europe everywhere it was instituted, Russia / Stalin was instead bent every effort to CONQUER and dominate European neighboring states and expand Russia, borders with its concept of "sphere of influence " over the near abroad.. We need to understand that Russia didn't come to encompass 11% of earth's land area, by being invaded by other countries; Russia did so by invading far more other countries, than it was itself invaded by ; Remember Russia is a Federation of states , and the Russian part of that federation is the smallest state in the "Russian federation.". (Russia with a total area of 17,098,242 Km² (6,601,665 mi²) and a land area of 16,376,870 Km² (6,323,142 mi²), equivalent to 11% of the total world's landmass ) In history MANY and ALL countries have been invaded frequently by their neighbors throughout all of history. Was Russia invaded more than France? Germany? Poland in HISTORY ? NO IT WAS NOT !!! So this acting the victim, (west always invades Russia act ) when it comes to the west, that Kremlin does all the time, . This buhhh the evil-west AGGRESSIVE west always invades us always is attacking us Buhhhh; This is why we see western NATO as a danger buhhhh !!!! THIS TYPE OF ACTING THE VICTIM is absolute and nothing more and less than Kremlin BS it is done so you overlook the fact that it is Russia that invades other not vise versa and to pull the smoke over your eyes !!! .. Do i need to mention all of eastern Europe was under brutal Russian regime, hegemonic control for over 50 years .. ?? And that historical Russia has invaded and occupied way more of its neighbors then vice versa ! Russia says NATO is using Ukraine as a nuke base and therefore letting Ukraine into NATO is to close to Russian borders!! But if you take a closer look at the argument it turns out to be absolute BS argument (even before Finland and Sweden join NATO ) because NATO is and was already 150 km away to St Petersburg via Estonia and 500 km via Latvia to Moscow (there is about 800 km from Ukraine to the Russia's capital so how is NATO getting closer to Moscow if Ukraine joins NATO !!) the concerns of the Russian Federation regarding the possible admission of the Ukraine to NATO is merely a cover for a fear of democracy developing on its frontiers and therefor a threat to Putin dictator like leadership  the modern authoritarian obsession with civil society repression dates back to how all NON-rational agent/ or rational being like exs KGB Putin is and how this paranoid ppl like him think and acts in other words "You Can’t Assume a Nut Will Act Rationally," and a nut that is manic-paranoid and narcissistic like KGB Putin is a special kind of nut !! .   The argument of Moscow that Ukraine borders are dangerously close to Russia and its capital so Ukraine cannot join NATO It is absolutely irrelevant in this day and age!!! Ukraine has no intrs, in becoming a hegemony Puppet on a string country of Moscow geopolitical needs in fact Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation and Ukraine is no exception to that rule . So why is this NUKE platform country argument by Moscow a BS agreement in this day and age ?? Well becouse Russia has also had and always will have at all times some Russian nuclear submarines plant off the cost of western nations coastlines armed with nuclear warheads YES !! they are load up with tactical nukes missiles and those subs are there 365 days a year undetected and reddy to launch the nukes or/and even drones with small nukes from there lunch base platforms ( Russia has its subs on nations porch as Putin likes to say) So Putin's reasons are weak to say the least its a BS argument becouse NATO also has nuclear subs of the Russian consline so like Putin also says they (Nato ) has nukes on our porch (on the Russian borders act act ) of our beloved city of Moscow and Russia we need to react !.. .

  4. RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND IS NOT ACCEPTABLE !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination like a type of 2nd class country; that is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept to be some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country, that indirectly will serving the kremlins geopolitical agenda, and so Kremlin, the RuZZians and Putin can feel better about themselves ... All the Eastern European countries has more or less joined NATO because they was scared of Russia and want make sure they will stay independent, (and the same goes for the EU financial independence ) Nobody forced Eastern European countries to join , NATO or the EU all of them came running and begging and knocking on the door of NATO and EU by themselves, asking and begging to be let into The EU and NATO  !! Russia invading Ukraine back 2014 and Georgia back in 2008 and now all out war with Ukraine from 2022++ just showed, why it was and still is a good idea for those Eastern European countries to join NATO, and the EU  because if they didn't they might just have got invaded as well . During Soviet times those Eastern countries were nothing but quasi Russia puppet states and were totally exploited by Russia under its heel and boot. If those eastern European countries didn't join NATO then they couldn't have guaranteed their own future continuous independence from Russia by themselves . Nato did nothing wrong, the only mistake was Ukraine not joining NATO to ensure their independence !!! The former satellite states like Poland,Romania,Czech Republic and The Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect was running to and knocking at the front door of EU and NATO begging to come inn and thats the truth !! . If Russia was not such a asshole country and stoped constantly bulling neighboring countries maybe other neighboring countries will not need to join NATO and by more open and welcoming to Russia ..

  5. This Russian ORCS  says ; "Russia will not be defeated on the battlefield, it is a great power". Lets look at some facts of history shall we !! Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by The British 1853–1856 Crimean War Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Japan, 8 February 1904 – 5 September 1905 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, in World War I by losing its empire 1914–1918 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Finland Finnish War of 1918-1920 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Latvia The Latvian War of 1918–1920 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Estonia The Estonian War of 1918–1920 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Lithuania The Lithuanian–Soviet 1918–1919 Russia was defeated on the battlefield,  by Georgia The Ossetian war 1918–1920 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Poland Polish–Soviet War 1919–1921 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Ukraine People's Republic of Ukriane 1919–1921 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Afghanistan The Urtatagai conflict 1925–1926 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Afghanistan  Red Army intervention 1929 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Finland The Winter War 1939–1940 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Eritrea The Eritrean War 1974–1991 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Angola The Angolan War 1975–1991 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Afghanistan Russia–Afghan War 1979–1989 Russia was defeated on the battlefield, by Chechnya The First Chechen War 1994–1996 AND RUSSIA WILL BE DEFEATED IN THE BATTLEFIELD BY UKRAINE 2022 +++ !!!!

  6. Ukraine territory is a whopping 603,628 square kilometers (233,062 sq mi), Russia at one point  occupied a total of 161,000 km2 (62,000 sq mi) or almost 27% of Ukraine's territory and some has been librated so now we are down to 119,000 km2  What really gets me is that some ppl. are now saying why does Ukraine not just let Russia have the areas /land it’s just a small part of Ukraine anyway..... A small part of Ukraine ...WE ARE taking about a land mass is 119,000 km2  In EU terms thats the size of Belgium, Holland, luxembourg all put together.. In UK terms that the size of all of Scotland and 80% of England all put together !! In US terms is the size of South Carolina, West Virginia all put together !! Why the f. should Ukraine give Russia all that land for what? TO ONLY be invaded some years later when Russia as had a brake and regrouped ,rebuilt its army and fortified positions !! I SAY RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND AND DEMAND UKRAINE CAN NOT JOIN NATO IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country".  NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom !!!! ; The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom  and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept that Ukraine and its ppl. should become some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda; so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ... ---------It is embarrassing that the US and Europe do not support Ukraine more than they do , the US. were in Afghanistan for 20 years and achieved less than Ukraine in 2 years, and Ukraine is also a much stronger opponent with many more resources !! As a Norwegian I am ashamed of our policies in the west , the western nations governments use every opportunity to go on national TV and tell how much they support, but the truth is that we have only provided 94 Euros per inhabitant, it is ridiculous when we look at the size of Ukraine, the opponent and the way Russia has bombed cities in Ukraine back to the Stone Age, and that we (western nations ) have not lost a single person in the war , we are talking about Europe, democracy and freedom that Ukraine is defending , one can only be ashamed some ppl. are now saying why does Ukraine not just let Russia have the areas /land it’s just a small part of Ukraine anyway.....
