JUST IN: White house does 180 on Ukraine funding, "we're coming near to the end of the rope!"
Is it time to stop funding Ukraine?

US ‘strategists’ planned to ‘unbalance Russia’ with a proxy war in Ukraine. Instead they unbalanced the world: EU in recession, Ukraine wrecked, NATO toothless, Middle East on fire and the multipolar world rising against a bankrupt empire of lies with a money printing addiction.
Hamas’ surprise attack on Israel is an atrocity that has justifiably been compared to 9-11. By deliberately targeting and rounding up civilians for rape, kidnapping and murder, including at a music festival (where there is no conceivable military target), Hamas has put itself in the Al Qaeda category. Israel is within its rights to dismantle and destroy the organization.
That said, one of the purposes of a terrorist outrage is to provoke an escalatory response that ultimately backfires. After 9-11, the U.S. plunged into two decades of wars in the Middle East that cost untold blood and treasure, unleashed staggering murder and mayhem, changed the geopolitical map in unfavorable ways for the U.S., and squandered the sympathy of the world. Bin Laden must be smiling in Hell.
Now many of the same U.S. figures who miscalculated so badly after 9-11 are screeching for Israel to “finish them” or braying for a larger war with Iran. This is exactly the wrong advice. Our leaders should be encouraging a cool-headed response that finds the right balance between achieving a just and legitimate military objective, minimizing civilian casualties, and avoiding the risk of a wider war. Let us hope and pray that the Israeli government finds that balance.
I would be very surprised if Benjamin Netanyahu and his administration is not gone in the next few weeks.
The Israeli's have shipped enormous quantities of 155 mm artillery ammunition to Ukraine at the request of the United States.
Zelensky forged something of a relationship with the Israelis and that relationship may well have distracted them from watching their borders.
Military intelligence friends are saying the draft will start back around February 2024. The age could be extended to 35 and females could be included. The war department estimates the next war will expend 3,500 Americans per day and the US Army War College says it could be 30,000 per month. And let’s not forget that military recruitment is down 10,000 per month over the last two years.
@LauraLoomer I am still concerned about the rail car carrying 30 tons of ammonium nitrate (used as both fertilizer & explosives) operated by explosives manufacturer Dyno Nobel in Cheyenne, WY is still missing during a rail shipment to CA. This chemical was lost in May, 2023. Where is it?!
Breaking News Israel: US weapons left behind in Afghanistan used to attack Israel.
A high-ranking Israel Defense Forces (IDF) commander said US weapons left in Afghanistan by the Biden administration were found in the hands of Palestinian groups active in the Gaza Strip.
The chaos that erupted after the #US scramble to evacuate Afghanistan as ordered by #Biden and the significant amount of weapons and equipment left behind there has now been used to attack Israel a close ally of the #USA
#Biden is incapable of leadership and a total embarrassment on the world stage. #IsraelAtWar #HamasTerrorists

There are state department representatives that are absolutely salivating at the idea of invading Iran
They have wanted this for 20+ years
Oppose it, loudly

US resources and attention are being stretched thin. Ukraine, Africa, Israel, and hopefully not soon, Taiwan. “This is all part of the same chessboard.” -@INArteCarloDoss
US foreign policy seems to be crumbling at a fast pace. Meanwhile, US global weapon stockpiles have now been severely depleted and our Strategic Petroleum Reserve drained to the lowest level in 40+ years. The US might be energy independent but most of our allies in Europe and Asia are not.
Pile on the debt/deficit sitatuion, we are not in a very strong position moving forward. The US needs to stop bickering about dumb political arguments at home and get it’s shit together. Dumb politics is fine when everything is great, but now we have real problems. The fighting at home needs to stop. We need a real leader now more than ever.
Biden/Blinken foreign policy has been a disaster. The media told us Trump would start WW3, but in reality we’re closer now than ever before.
5 embassies have been evacuated, multiple wars started, and relations have gotten worse with almost every US adversary. We need a real leader.
