So while his country is under attack Zelensky is flying around the globe doing photo shoots for magazines and appearing on TV shows all the while saying he needs more money.

Zelensky even got pissed off when he could not appear at the Oscars...he asked and they say no.

This Ukraine war is fishy...very fishy.

Yeah something doesn't sit right. Does anyone think that the Russians couldn't take Zelensky out at anytime? The Russians haven't been attacking the seat of power in Kiev/Kyiv. The Russians built all of Ukraine's government buildings, bunkers. They know where everything is. Are we really to believe that the Russians have zero intelligence spy operations deeply engrained in the Ukrainian government? They're all the same people, with a large percentage that side with Moscow.

I think the Russians are content that the war is dragging on through the long cold European winter. It's depleting our weapons, it's creating splinters and fractures within the EU, it's creating social upheaval in Europe, it's effecting their elections, we've drained our SPR. I'm sure China is elated, that the US is bogged down in yet another overseas war, while they prepare to take Taiwan.

So far, Ukraine has doubled our rate of war spending in Afghanistan. With Biden's latest announcement of $37.7 billion more in Ukraine spending, we're nearing $100 billion in Ukraine.

Plus..Zelensky is getting an allowance from us...$1.5 billion a month...money is moved from the Pentagon to the State Dept and given to Ukraine as foreign assistance....Biden "Memorandums" which are posted on WH.gov

Maybe that is why Congress gave the military more money than they asked for last year ?? ($25 billion more)
Like this was planned or something...odd

Not only that, but immediately trying to get NATO involved and exercising article 5 without waiting for the investigation of what happened. I don't appreciate him trying to kick start WWIII.

Well, Ukraine doesn’t have the capability to blow up those underwater pipelines. So that narrows it down to basically the US or UK. Those who would even contemplate the idea that Russia blew up their own pipelines are about as brain damaged as can be.

Who benefits from this? Germany doesn’t. Russia doesn’t. Europe as a whole, doesn’t. But the US does.

It’s pretty evident the US was responsible, and based on Biden’s remarks at the beginning of the year, telling reporters that if Russia invades, the pipelines will be shut down is really a confession before the fact.

I really don’t know how anyone can have a problem putting together this two piece puzzle.

I agree. I suspect the UK carried it out with the order from the US, if reports are to be believed.

Not one. Or even admitting they were wrong. In fact, all I've seen so far is double-downing and what they-themselves would be calling "conspiracy theories" had it come from any mouth besides their own.
Not the person you want but I'll speak up as a dirty lefty. I never made any claims

Mostly because I'm not a ******* geopolitical expert at the helm of action. I'm not adding anything to the discussion, sure. I just want to signal that the ones who "know what they don't know" tend to be the silent majority.
