1. There’s been some people who’ve been pointing out that the total amount of military aid for Ukraine which now comes to 53 billion dollars, they’ve been comparing it to Russia’s annual military budget which is around 65 billion dollars. They’ve been rubbing their hands and they’ve been suggesting that this means that before very long the Russians will be overwhelmed by a flood of American weapons to Ukraine. Well as far as i can make out, the actual amount of military hardware and training that is committed in this package out of this 40 billion dollars is actually six billion dollars. Six billion dollars not just of weapons, but also of training of Ukrainian troops and things of this kind, most of the rest is in economic aid, all kinds of other things that are connected in various ways to the war in Ukraine but which are not direct military aid to ukraine.

   So Russia will likely be disappointed that they will only have $6 billion worth of American hardwares to collect as they go about the Ukrainian nation, seemingly playing in some bizarre role-play game, where they collect captives and arms with amazing routine. The potential calamity that may result from this rule by folly from Washington sets a greater potential for increasing the damage to American prestige and leadership with every passing day. I can not believe all that has been done to erase America’s position in the world in the past year, but it has not been to a small extent.

   Of course, America is a vast and powerful nation, but the world power she holds is far greater than the limits of her borders and GDP. Should this European fiasco go asunder, as it does seem to be playing out without pause to that potential, the role of America will be significantly reduced, even more marginalized than where it stands today, with only the single possibility of direct action between the US and Russia that might change this outcome, and that would surely result in an even more desperate outcome, whichever side could claim victory for their efforts, should the victory be handed to either. In any case, such a calamity would be a devastating process…and all to secure or settle the borders of the Ukrainian mafia state …an unbelievable goal to risk so much and so many lives.

   Indubitably, the true victor of all of this chaos between the US and Russia in the fields of Ukraine will be the one actor who is never mentioned in any of it. As China Joe has seen to secure this devastation to US policy, China is sitting on its high horse, considering what a great return they have gained from that $1.5 billion investment in the hands of a coke-head military dropout…
