    Good that their bosses aren’t GC moderators! I saw this last night. Hysterically funny signs

    Only in kind. If an errant artillery round lands in Poland, that won’t trigger full-scale intervention in Ukraine.

    Come Monday there will be lots of suspects with motive should something bad happen to dear Vlad.

    This man needs to be dealt with.

    And there you have it.. Russian generals and many in the Duma are already thinking Putin is nuts and we're only what? 4 days in? Putin keeps backing up himself and Russia into tighter corners.

    Haha, they could hold parties on Putin's yacht (he raced it there from Germany when this was about to start).

    And Israel modifies the Jets anyway. Even if the deal says they aren’t supposed to. The Israeli planes may have capabilities that the US planes do not as well. It in any event, US Israeli cooperation is such that we can see show the planes perform in action.

    interestingly, f22 can’t be sold to any other country due to the tech it has. And they asked for it.

    You need better sources if information than the Western Journal. Biden offered Zelensky a way out of Kyiv to potentially set up a government in exile. They did not say to surrender Kyiv. The Headline is a lie.

    I say we let them alone and let them defend their turf. This isn't a time for political correctness.

    It is also a friendly gesture by the U.S. to offer security to Zelensky, but Zelensky made the right call I think.

    When your leader says I'm staying and fighting, send more ammo.... you run through a brick wall for that guy.

    Most likely, most of his assets are not in London or Russia.
