Biden Seeks $33 Billion More for Ukraine, Girding for Longer War

[beaniemac]

America should get 25% of fukking Ukraine for all this. Tax their wheat and other industries after the war.

u would have thought after 20 years in the middle east, we'd own a sizeable chunk of their oil reserves for how much we spent over there.

 

[beaniemac]

Why aren't the European countries giving money at a higher rate

every fukking war, it seems like this country is ALWAYS footing the majority of the bill.

u don't see china getting involved. they like

those fukkers never open up their wallet and offer anyone aid.

shyt, we could've had infinite free oil and food if our leaders didn't do these shytty deals

 

[SleezyBigSlim]

Biden likes to play games, made yall believe he going to forgive student loans so yall wont say shyt about his big spending on Ukraine

 

[Voice of Reason]

They are , in weapons bought from American defense contractors . You really think we are not running these fools pockets for that NATO membership

From the sources that I've seen they've only given a fraction of what we have given so far.

 

[Dorian Breh]

Russia's economy has picked up despite the sanctions. They doubled revenue since they forced everyone to buy their energy using the Ruble. They've run laps around the West in their proxy war. More of the 33B will be washed and laundered.

 

[the bossman]

The estimated cost for the war in afghanistan was said to be 100 billion A YEAR when 100k troops were stationed in the country. The goverment have spent over 10% of that already on ukraine in less then 2 months and is now asking for a further 33 billion. ALL EU member states combined have given less then 10 billion. America is spending tax dollars like its nothing when it comes to war, but dragging their feet when it comes to helping the people.

Like wasn't there a thread just yesterday on student debt relief?

For some reason theres always a justification on why it's critical and needed to spend money for foreign interventions or bank/airline bailouts.

But wiping student loan debt will wreck the economy

 

[that guy]

Again, this isn’t about Ukraine.

This is about global positioning. Ukraine cannot lose this war and Russia cannot get stronger.

If you brehs coming in here talking about homeless student loans or repetitions. You’re playing draughts/checkers and not chess. Not saying it’s right though.

Gas is $5/gallon are we supposed to give fukk about “global dominance”?

Nobody gives a shyt about the Ukraine. This war in the Ukraine has made Russia weaker due to all the sanctions and the sheer cost of an all out invasion. This is about maintaining white supremacy. The white countries all agreed to not attack each other to maintain their dominance over the global economy.

Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine isn’t any different then what the rest of those European countries were doing for the past +100 plus years all throughout the world.

 

[that guy]

This shyt is absurd. Russia can barely muster up enough working equipment to defeat tiny ass Ukraine. Why are we concerned about these broke ass people.

OP acting like the Ukraine sitting on the worlds largest reserve of lithium, oil, and gold

God forbid the Russians take over a country full of nazis

 

[Carl Tethers]

I don't think folks should be jealous of Ukraine getting that 33 Billion. That shyt is blood money for Ukraine to be in a proxy war with Russia.

Its a perfect situation for the west. For them to let Ukraine be a buffer in a proxy war with russia and that they can bleed out russia and weaken them for the next 5 plus years in a never ending war. While the rest of the west doesn't get they hands dirty and bloody.

You never want to be the little country in a proxy war cause all you doing is getting used.

I mean its like folks ain't seen this shyt over and over and over again from Korea, to Vietnam to Afghanistan to Iraq and on and on and on and on and on. They all got aid / money from powerful countries to fight other big countries and all they got in the end was dead bodies and a destroyed country.

This ain't nothing to be envious over......shyt is global puppeteering.

Slow down, you're showing an understanding of geopolitics

 

[Dorian Breh]

@that guy are you still in high school?

 

[that guy]

Yes, it does. If Russia takes Ukraine, they control food, gas pipelines, and a warm water port in the Black Sea.

Who gives a shyt thats a Europe problem. Americans can’t even afford to rent an apartment and fill their tank up.

Breh let's be honest you've probably never had a job you're not qualified to speak on this shyt

 

[Everythingg]

This is about global positioning. Ukraine cannot lose this war and Russia cannot get stronger.

What’s that to black people?

 

[Dorian Breh]

What’s that to black people?

Well in the last decade Russia has done everything they can to detract from civil rights movements and empower neo Nazi groups operating in the US
