Food for Thought

[50USA]

Funny how Trump went against the Ukraine when he was President.....he also refused to let anyone know what he talked about with Putin. Why is it the Republicans didn't insist he tell them? Or did he and they are keeping the secret and the reason they won't go against him? I believe that is food for thought....do you?

How the Ukraine invasion connects to Trump's first impeachment — and where the players are now
The former president is sounding off about Russia's attacks barely two years after he faced charges of abusing his power by withholding aid for Kyiv.

Obama is not the subject of this. And I'm talking about his impeachment ya moron.

I'm talking about Ukraine you moron. Your entire premise for this thread is bullshit.

The FACT that Trump sold Javelins to Ukraine, when Obama and his pointman BIDEN on Ukraine would not, helped prevent Purin's tanks from rolling into Kyiv early in the war.

There's a huge loophole in the GOP's claim that Trump's sale of Javelin missiles to Ukraine shows his support for the country

Under the rules of the sale, the Javelin missiles have to be stored in western Ukraine, which is far from the frontlines of the ongoing conflict in the eastern part of the country (the Donbas region) against pro-Russia separatists. In short, the Javelins were essentially provided to Ukraine under the condition that they not be used in the conflict zone.
Accordingly, the Javelins have yet to be used in the fighting, though US personnel are training some Ukrainian forces how to use them against tanks.

But while Washington urges Kyiv to use the Javelins only for defensive purposes and requires that the weapons be stored in a secure facility away from the conflict, there are no geographic restrictions on the actual deployment of the missiles, U.S. officials said, which means that Ukrainian forces can transport, distribute and use them at any time.

“Javelins are defensive weapons and the United States expects Ukraine to deploy them responsibly and strategically when needed for defensive purposes,” said Pentagon spokesperson Mike Howard.

Tanks on the outskirts of Kyiv is a defensive need.

Hmmm......I wonder if thats what Obama meant when he whispered That he would have more flexibility after the election? then sure as hell, Russia took Crimea. You just might be on to something there Sport......

In fact.....Obama claimed there was no problem with Russia , that they were our friends. Remember........." The 80's called and they want their foreign policy back" . I sure remember.

Secret to Ukraine's fierce resistance? Javelin antitank missiles

https://asia.nikkei.com/Politics/Ukr...itank-missiles

Measuring 1.2 meters in length, the Javelin can be transported and fired by a single soldier. Yet the weapon, made by American contractors Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, has enough firepower to pierce tank armor from 2.5 km away.

The traits have made the Javelin the weapon of choice for repelling tank invasions in urban settings. A Javelin operator can covertly approach and engage a target in that setting. The weapons could prove even more crucial as a 65 km long tank convoy moved its way toward Kyiv on Tuesday.

In January, the U.S. delivered $200 million worth of weapons to Ukraine, including 300 Javelins. Washington approved additional military aid on Saturday following Russia's invasion.

During President Barack Obama's term in office, the U.S. did not supply Ukraine with Javelins when Russia annexed Crimea in 2014. But under President Donald Trump, Washington reversed course and decided to equip Ukraine with the weapons.

If Putin had taken Kyiv there might not be a Ukraine today. THANK GOD that Donald Trump sold them Javelins when Obama / Biden refused to.
