I quite agree. To paraphrase FDR, when your neighbor’s house is on fire and he needs to use your hose, you don’t quibble about the price while the...
Well, if you ask Poland, that’s precisely what good Democrat FDR did over the pleas of Churchill et al. In the context of the Cold War, we often...
Not really, but many of those targets (refineries and factories, for instance) don’t require the kind of assistance we could give. We would be of...
That is an absolutely positive consequence of President Trump’s comments if nothing else: Europe is starting to step up. If the President is not...
Nothing I haven’t already postulated: if you think the negotiations are going to ultimately fail (I certainly do) and you’re only real goal is to...
No need to be like that. I was being earnest. I understand links are everywhere about the President’s words. And well deserved in my opinion. I...
I don’t blame you for wanting to see it and knowing precisely what more permissive measures have been on offer in the last few weeks, but that is...
That would be a good one, yes. The President could deny that without advising Congress, and many of our weapons would be useless to Ukraine...
I never said the President was playing 3D chess, and I likely never will. All I said was it’s possible that the ridiculous words are designed to...
Of course. Your theory is that we have switched sides in this conflict. How does the fact that we have not only maintained but also increased...
You posted more words. Admittedly unenlightened words, but words nonetheless. I didn’t read an answer to my question in those words. Do I need to...
Well, when you get around to explaining how Trump maintaining (in certain cases increasing) military pressure on Russia fits into your theory...
So if I understand you correctly, Trump has not yet pulled military support, some of the most important of which is completely within the scope of...
Which part? Be specific. Don’t say, “The whole thing!”
It will if and when it happens. Being deliberately vague here. Apologies. Better than yourself, I understand that nothing has really changed in...
So there is a deal now that leaves Ukraine high and dry, or are you just citing more words? I already stipulated the words, if you will recall....
If the hell-spawn deal you prognosticate comes to pass, then I will gladly join speculation about what comes next. Until then, we will see.
Sorry, but asked and answered previously. I agree that words matter. I vehemently disagree with the words. But I believe they are empty words...
If such a deal is signed by Ukraine under duress of our creation, then you are correct. That is exactly what it would be. And the prospects for...
It’s a possible outcome. I don’t think it will happen. We will see.
