    Secretary of State Antony Blinken's move is a break with his predecessors' policy of overriding a congressional check on military aid to Egypt. In the past, an exception was granted to free up Foreign Military Financing for Abdel Fattah al-Sisi's government, worth $300 million this fiscal year, on the basis that it was in the interest of U.S. national security.

    Takes 130 million from Egypt and takes a missile defense system from Saudi Arabia but gives 64 million to the Taliban plus 80 billion in weapons.

    The only "offensive weapons" Obama didn't sell Ukraine were the Javelin missiles, and the reason was because they didn't want that tech to fall into Russia's hands.

    All you do is lie.

    Because you want it to fall back under the control of Moscow.

    The US, Russia, and China are considered the world's strongest nations when it comes to military power, with the US the undisputed number one. Even so, Russia's still has plenty of arrows in its quiver, most notably the massive nuclear arsenal of some 1,550 deployed nuclear warheads.

    ......."Russia's air force is much stronger than the Chinese for now,"

    ....In addition to the nuclear arsenal, there is one area in which Russia is clearly number one.
    Recently, the Kremlin announced that Russia had more tanks than any other nation in the world, notes Felgenhauer. "Unofficially, I have seen figures of up to 20,000, which would mean that Russia has more tanks than all the NATO countries put together."

    Most of the European powers reduced their tank capabilities after the end of the Cold War, focusing instead on conflicts with terrorist and guerilla groups. This, according to Felgenhauer, puts them at a massive disadvantage in the event of a ground war in Europe.

    Russia will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever fight a shooting war with the West.

    The reason is because Russia is far more successful attacking the West through the internet, and they do that with the state-sanctioned hacking, and the recruitment and training of propagandists like you.

    Right, but how many are operational, and how many can be accounted for at any given time?

    Cuz neither of those numbers are 100%.

    Yeah, that's like saying the Florida Marlins' offense is better than the Arizona Diamondbacks'.

    But both pale in comparison to the Los Angeles Dodgers' offense.
