It always has been Ukraine, but in any case this is a fascinating recording. The voice tone and the pauses are pretty intense. Obviously he had to be evasive about how far they’ve retreated as I’m sure he anticipated the possibility that the Ukrainians would intercept the call. I don’t know why he didn’t just say that. But she’s incredulous as what her husband is telling her isn’t consistent with the programming.

Exactly !!! Specific Details on how much has been spent, what it was for, what was purchased, how it was transferred, how much was actual cash, who/what organization or governmental entity got the money/equipment, and how this was verified.

As the article shows, Zelensky’s government is cracking down on corruption, not tolerating it.
So yes, we should send more money (and weapons), because the alternatives are a free and independent Ukraine which is actively fighting corruption even while fighting off a brutal invasion, OR the destruction of that free and independent country and its enslavement by the uber-corrupt, genocidal Russian regime of Vladimir Putin.
Not even remotely a hard choice from a corruption point of view, nor from a security point of view, nor from a human rights point of view.
Not continuing and increasing support for Uraine only makes (non)sense from a buying-into-the-Russian-propaganda-spread-by-Tucker-Carlson-and-other-Trumpublican-Putin-lickspittles point of view.

…followed rapidly by China attacking Taiwan and by Russia targeting its next neighbor. The invasion of Taiwan would draw the United States into war with China. And China’s military industrial complex is not as incompetent and riddled with corruption as Russia’s is.

And by the way, “accountability” is fine, I’m all for it…as long as we keep in mind that it’s a war, where completely perfect accounting is not a reasonable expectation, and as long as the goal of helping the Ukrainians defend their country remains the top priority.

One thing that has bothered me about the aid arrangement….Zelensky has never said a word about any effort to repay anything.. And I’m not talking about full repayment, but they have, for example, vast lithium deposits. He could at least commit to selling to us at a discount….

About 8,000 dead and 12,000 injured. Every building in many, many places damaged. But yeah, let’s demand payment for providing just enough equipment to keep the war “balanced” and allowing the slaughter to continue apace. Thanks, JW, what you have to say is usually just random insults, so it’s nice to see how you think.

mitchie….where did I say “demand”? You really have comprehension issues….
January 24, 2023 at 6:51 pm

There is no secret about how much has been spent, and specifically what it was spent on. It’s all available even to the public. In fact, it’s been reported on by the major media.
So, what are we talking about exactly?

Its funny, considering corruption in Russia, or anywhere else, as an American. I mean, our codification of corruption, despite it being a delicious irony, doesn’t make it any better/different than “the other” nations.

eric, coming from a guy who believes magoo graduated at the top of his class and gave dead uncle Frankie a purple heart (I could go on forever), I’m guessing you still believe in Santa. Did you read the corruption link?

Mitch, the Harper’s discussion about the nature of liberalism v populism is awesome. I’m grateful you took the time to share the link! Thank you!

Border Crossers Beware…
A Local Obituary: [Jill hated the Apartheid system that she had grown up in and due to her seeing uncut films she knew where she wanted to live; that bastion of free and equal government, that shiny city on the hill, the United States of America.
She moved to the US when she was 30 years old, on a visitor’s visa. She was dismayed to discover that the America she had seen on film did not live up to that promise, in real life.]

JW – they’re fighting a war against a semi-superpower. They’re going to have to deal with their corruption. There’s nothing we can do about it. But we can’t allow a modern day Anschluss to take place. Bottom line.
