Most of that tally is actual weapons sent. They will be replaced with the "dollars" by Americans in an American plant, keeping those "dollars" here, and helping local economies. They didn't just send a check or pallets of money, it's in the form of weapons and goods. Yes, some goes to help them stay afloat, this is tough on their economy.
We used to be the beacon of freedom that the world looked to as a place to aspire to be, or to come to live. Ukraine has the potential to be an economic leader in Europe, they had great manufacturing and agricultural bases, and resources as well. They just need to shake off russia and have a chance. All the aggression by russia is because they were succeeding in breaking away.

Broken window logical fallacy here. Taxpayers spend money to replace stuff that taxpayers bought in the first place is not a net gain. It’s a net loss.  Sure The Ukraine could do very well absent the kleptocracy in charge and the aggressive attacking nation but so could the Congo.  What ROI dies the American taxpayer get? Unless I’m missing something, the Ukraine has not signed any promissory note paying us back. In ten years it could very well be that they are dealing with Russia economically—gas pipelines yo—or China and all we get is a thanks but more money to be made this way. Fir historical examples see Germany, Japan, and pretty much all of Western Europe


The morally bankrupt take on things.

You don't always have to secure something in exchange for help.

“Morality” is the appeal of the left when they want to rob your bank account to fund their social welfare programs. Thanks for playing AOC and Mexico is a bigger problem for US security right now than Russia so check yourself


I bet you collect VA bennies.


Don’t go to the VA, it’s a waste. OTOH, I’m an American and fly the American flag. I’m not a wetback

Really?  If you're talking about the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, they're anything but reliable.

For the latest example, Russia has estimated that AFU has lost about 61,000 KIA and 49,000 WIA.  These estimates were derided by everyone in the "reliable" west as being nothing but Putinist propaganda.

Except this week the Chairman of the US JCOS, General Milley, basically confirmed the Russian numbers with an estimate of over 100,000 Ukrainian casualties to this date.  The biggest number I've seen from the Ukrainians is 9,000 KIA.

In this war, both sides lie and manipulate information.  But only Ukrainian propaganda goes unchallenged by the Media and Western governments.

With 100k casualties we would expect about 25-30k KIA, which is something like a half or a third of likely Russian losses.

Nope. Just calling it as it is. Dude says that you’re morally bankrupt if you don’t want your tax dollars going overseas for one cause or another and I’m simply pointing out the nonsense of that stance.

Combat medicine. Russia sucks at it like everything else.
Edit: This war is not being fought by the US, where stealth aircraft and the latest weapons would clean house pretty dang quick. This is a country 1/4th the size of the invader who had a lot of weapons destroyed or removed in deals they made with russia and the west. They have a determination to remove them permanently from their country.

And he's the one who started out with "morally bankrupt" for disagreeing how American tax dollars are spent while flying a foreign flag and country. Seems like BS to me. Seems to me if one is going to go on an on how morally bankrupt Americans are, they shouldn't support something other than America. KInda reeks of hyopocrisy. Loves America so much he has to use another nation's flag. Seems to me that calling someone "morally bankrupt" for objecting to US taxpayer dollars going overseas while flying a Mexican flag is a nonsensical and self serving stance.

Ah, so the "morally bankrupt" comment was totally cool to you then. It's okay to you to start insulting people with differnt opinions as long as the person has an opinion you don't llike but perish the thought they push back in kind. How fair of you. Seems that someone wants to start a fight but doesn't want the tide to turn. If one gets a time out both should, IMHO.

I'm a reasonable person.  I'll apologize for what I said, if he apologizes for what he said. Metaphorically shake hands and bury the hatchet.  I'm cool with that. Are you?

Ah, so the "morally bankrupt" comment was totally cool to you then. It's okay to you to start insulting people with differnt opinions as long as the person has an opinion you don't llike but perish the thought they push back in kind. How fair of you. Seems that someone wants to start a fight but doesn't want the tide to turn. If one gets a time out both should, IMHO.

Read my edit above. Although I see that you have a double standard, I'm willing to let that go too.

I could give a fuck personally.

I'm white as a fresh mountain snow. My second family is of Mexican and Central American descent. First generation immigrants. They work hard and pay their taxes.

I don't judge people based on their heritage or nationality though.

So I'm not sure of the validity of your logic if Russia has the same number of casualties but 2-3 times the KIA.

With 100k casualties we would expect about 25-30k KIA, which is something like a half or a third of likely Russian losses.

I got to sit in on a conference call with Milley once and after it was over the participant told me her experiences with him. If he told me the sun rises in the east I would get up early to check.

That said it’s apparent from videos and intercepted calls and photos from the battlefield that Ukrainian field medicine is two generations more advanced than Russian field medicine, even before you consider widespread reports that they shoot their wounded.

Russians don't deserve to die any more than Ukrainians.

Russia made their choice. The civilized West decided that further incursions weren't allowable.

Their claim to UKR is no different than Mexico claiming the southwest US as their own and invading. Failing to see this as the truth is an unbelievable logical fallacy.

I may have misdirected my comment. Apologies if it was taken in offense.

I do however believe that the quid-pro-quo of "we should get something in return" is an immoral view. FDR was wrong about so many things but he nailed it in his Lend-Lease appeal.

We shouldn't be asking for something in return all of the time. The Ukrainian people are CLEARLY self-motivated and willing to risk life and limb to keep themselves sovereign.

If decades of poor foreign policy regarding "gifting" of freedom and self-determination to countries has taught us anything - it's that it can't be gifted, it has to be won. We're watching it unfold in real-time, in 2022.

Who knows? Maybe Ukraine will join the club of "special relationship" countries with the US. It would be good to have friends in the dark times that will inevitably come again.

Fair enough, and we are now freinds again, thank you. However, I would respectfully disagree with the "we must get something out of it" as being an immoral view. Lend lease had a repayment schedule built into it. THe UK paid off their WW2 debt in 2006, so it's slightly different, in my opinion.

I totally agree with this statement: "If decades of poor foreign policy regarding "gifting" of freedom and self-determination to countries has taught us anything - it's that it can't be gifted, it has to be won"  That is so true. Exactly. It can't be gifted. All the money in the world won't help in the long run if the people in question aren't up to it. See Iraq. See Afghanistan. Total waste of men, money, and material in hindsight. After decades of pouring money, say from Vietnam onward, and not only not getting anything out of the effort but in fact what ending up with abject failures and hostility like in Iraq and Afghanistan, I don't think it immoral nor unreasonable to ask, as a taxpayer in a country with record debt and a crashing economy, why we should pour yet more money into yet another regional conflict. I hope you can see that point at least.

So obviously you didn’t read the article. Since the fall of Kievian Rus, The Ukraine was not an independent state until 1917. It was owned by mongols and Turkis and Poles and the Hapsburg Empire, and the Russians. Fact

Crimea was owned by the Greeks and Romans and Ottomans (for about 400 years) and the Russia from 1783 to 1954. Fact.

Sorry if facts hurt your feels but that is the history, like it or not. History. Learn it love it

True, but they all come out of the general fund initially and our debt has gone up, that budgeted money has to come from somewhere and it either reduces the budget elsewhere like those other budget items or we have to cut our own defense to cover the shortfall in the defense budget  or we have to create debt to cover it. The money has to come from somewhere so it’s a bit disingenuous to discard the comment with “it’s a different budget item.”
