Zelensky confirms first Abrams tanks already in Ukraine - Lemmy

We’ve spent Trillions to counter Russia overvthe decades.

To support Ukraine in a proxy war that weakens, destabilizes or destroys Russia where no American soldiers die and we get to test out our arsenal in a real world scenario is a worthwhile investment not to mention the moral and humanitarian aspect.

Do we have problems at home? Yes but that’s never been a good enough reason to reduce military spending.

I do think the military budget is out of control and more money should be appropriated to the issues that mayter like healthcare but at this moment in time we should absolutely continue to support Ukraine.

We are the world leaders and other countries follow. We can’t let our support erode. We can’t let Russia win this one.

We are the world leaders and other countries follow.

I am sorry, but this makes me puke.

The Americans sure are dominant in the world, no doubt about that. But miss me with this sanctimonious crap.

You took that in a broader sense. What I specifically meant by that was noone would provide Ukraine with tanks unless the U.S. offered them first.
