The principle underlying support for Ukraine shouldn’t be for ‘as long it takes’, but ‘whatever it takes and as soon as possible’. My piece on the US aid package to Ukraine and the need of a new strategy ensuring stable Western backing of Ukraine chathamhouse.org/2024/04/us-aid…

Yet another news outlet confirming that Russia did indeed target a children’s hospital with a Kh-101 cruise missile. AP FACT CHECK Posts falsely blame Ukraine for a missile strike on Kyiv children’s hospital apnews.com/article/fact-c…

It’s frustrating to continually hear fellow Americans oppose support to Ukraine on the basis that American “tax dollars shouldn’t be used to fund a European war.” While Ukraine is indeed about 5,700 miles from the United States, Russia is only 55 miles away at its closest point

So apparently, the U.S. is sending “retired” F-16s from the Davis-Monthan boneyard to Ukraine - supposedly just for spare parts to repair existing jets. Sure... just spare parts, nothing to see here.

You aren’t carrying out anything, you coward. You’re a pathetic propagandist who sits behind a computer screen and cheerleads war crimes. Nuclear saber-rattling from dorks like you scare no one. Oh and great powers don’t fear escalation. We are the escalation.
