Russia and Ukraine

[The Architect Of Fate]

I hadn't heard about this, but it doesn't surprise me. The whole weapons exchange thing is done for politics or for graft, not effective defense. 

Actually it is done for effective defense 

It's a way for the US to exert control over its obedient vassal states, and to enrich US manufacturers. Decisions are made based on political connections rather than what actually works. 

Ukraine is a free and independent state and an equal who is simply being supplied with weapons 

For example, it looks as though these super-duper Abrams tanks which are going to fly in to rescue our man Zelensky are difficult to use because they require fuel that's different from other machines. This increases logistical and maintenance difficulties. And the reason they are built this way is because Rumsfeld used the Abrams program to enrich the Chrysler Corporation, which was struggling at the time.

Anyway, CNN is saying the tanks won't arrive for a year. CNN lies constantly, of course, but only in pro-American ways, so we'll see. Lots of pledges of assistance like this are made for the headlines, and then when attention has shifted to the next thing the pledges are quietly forgotten. So let's see how many of these super-duper tanks really arrive.

And conspiracy nonsense. and a fucking substack as source
