Whether its in Russia's hands or some other Russian financed subordinate.

We spend 100B in Ukraine and by most accounts half of Russia's modern military is destroyed.

All the KA-50/52s, Mi-28s, T-80s, T-90s, Su-34, Su'27/35, TU-22s, S-400s, the Moskva, the rest of the Black Sea fleet, all that plus more...was, their best.  

They have no super fleet of brand new gear they have been holding in reserve.

They are begging NK for 90MM shells to use in T-55s as arty.

To me that $100B, well spend.

We blew $Trillions in Iraq and Afghanistan, and honestly almost nothing to show for, except for lives and treasure, wasted.

Fuck Russia.

And in world do you really think China is going to fight with us?  

Now that they understand Russia isn't going to have their back and the majority of their military is built from ex-Russian equipment and copied stolen designs?

I'm not completely dismissing China but, they aren't going to do well either in their invasion of any country in the Pacific.

My point is, us spending this money now, is breaking Russia's back.

Prior to this war, Russia was a contender, now we know they aren't and more importantly China knows they aren't either.

Thank for illustrating my point. It isn't the pro Ukraine crowd pushing to send troops but rather the anti crowd pushing the false narrative. Now why are they doing that. Perhaps to scare those who don't follow or pay much attention into think that US troops may be sent to fight Russians in Ukraine.

Prior to this war Russia was a strategic contender, not a tactical contender.

Nothing has changed.

China doesn't want to fight us, they want to make their moves uncontested and steal the global power base from the west without incident.  We are setting ourselves up to allow it to happen.  The way it doesn't is through great power deterrence, which they are currently on the upper curve of.

Right now Russia is begging NK for ammunition.

They are also going to Iran to buy drones.

They are losing erreplaceable, assets TU-22s, capital ships, huge numbers of ground vehicles, armor, arty, etc.  

Minimum figures put ground vehicle losses total over 10K, and aircraft over 200+.

Their entire AF has been relegated to a stand off support role, they are doing badly at.

Nearly the entire Black Sea Fleet has been neutralized, their leadership just got deleted from existance on live TV.

And quietly, not so quietly Russia just liquidated the majoriry of their contractor army.

Not to mention a huge defection of Russian males from the civilian population, never mind the 100K+ casualties (who knows the real number?).

This only hasten's Russia population decline.

Right now, China is wondering how much it of its military is based on Russian BS, ripped off designs?

Yeah, those aircraft carriers?  Those Xian H-6 bombers based of the Tu-16?  All those, fighters based off Mig, and Sukhoi's?  Missiles, SAMs, cruise missiles, subs?  

Some much for making all thoses moves in the Pacific, with all that paper tiger trash.

China spent a lot of time copying off the other kids in class, and they turned in their homework from Harbor Freight, right now they are really questioning how much they have copied of the drunk Russian kid, who has now been shown to be full of complete bullshit.

90% of what you are describing has nothing to do with their strategic capabilities. They have never been a tactical level threat to us, not since the cold war.  Russia is begging NK?  Then what exactly are we doing with SK, and India, and Africa...?  I don't think munitions depth is something you should be touting as a victory here.  Russia now makes their own drones in their own factories, and just buys more from Iran, drones that are challenging our paradigm of warfare.

China has been watching this war, but not for the reasons you point out. They are characterizing the failures of the west, improving their equipment, and growing their DIME and A2AD capabilities while we stagnate or reduce in those domains.  All the things we are failing at in Ukraine they are capitalizing on, while we run our stockpiles dry.  China just watched every potential competitor run out of weapons and stand around staring at each other once they realized they couldn't make more.

China is the threat, and investing so heavily into counter-Russia is only reducing our ability to deter the Chinese more and more.

The majority of Americans do not support further aid to Ukraine, and Joe Biden's $24 billion request was taken out of the appropriations bill this week and not voted on. This is devastating for Zelenskyys grifting.

Republicans broadly say that Congress should not authorize new funding (71%) and that the US has done enough to assist Ukraine (59%). Among Democrats, most say the opposite, 62% favor additional funding and 61% say that the US should do more.

Within both parties, there are splits by ideology. On providing additional funding, liberal Democrats are far and away the most supportive, 74% back it compared with 51% of moderate or conservative Democrats. Among Republicans, about three-quarters of conservatives oppose new funding (76%) compared with 61% of moderate or liberal Republicans.

I think we all know what a cold war is and the idea that it is not a war, with real consequences for our security and well being, unless it's a hot war, is just silly.

Of course neither China nor Russia nor anyone else is going to stage an invasion of the United States, but that doesn't mean they can't use their military and their spies to inflict major damage on us.

Russia doesn't have the stockpiles to go it alone, they are in NK looking for ammunition, and that says a lot.

Realistically how long is that going to last?  NK has SK to worry about, not Ukraine.

Russia also doesn't have the capabilities to produce its own drones indefinitely, it doesn't have the resources.

Tactical munitions, once depleted become a strategic liability.

We have the capability to produce munitions indefinitely vs Russia, we haven't even started to turn the heat up in munitions production yet.

China will watched as we ramp up production and start refilling our stockpiles and the rest of NATO's.  We have weapons to sell and money to make.

China is also seeing all Russia frontline aircraft SU-27/35s, SU-34s, cruise missiles, not mention all rotary assets, absolutely abysmal performance vs Western technology.

Everything that Taiwan is buying to counter China.

Before we ever worry about China seriously threatening the US in anyway, it is going to have to deal with 3 huge problems.  

Taiwan, Japan, and South Korean.

Russia can't even deal with Ukraine.

The aid has been vital to keeping Ukraine afloat. I’m all for it.



You know they will accept personal donations, right?   What’s stopping you ?

What world do you live in where we will be fighting Russia?  Putin can't beat Ukraine and you think he is going to take on NATO!?!?!?  Every dollar and round we send to Ukraine is one less that we have to prepare for a war tith China.

Russia is a old sick dog. China on the other hand is a pit bull with mental issues that wants a bigger yard and they don't want to share it with russia or any other country. China is laughing all the way to the bank with every penny we spend and every mil item we hand over to them.

It's Europe's problem. PERIOD, and they really don't give a shit about russia either other then wanting their gas.
