things are extremely serious right now… Iran launched missles last night and hit a United States base and hurt a bunch of soldiers…
Iran is getting ready to hit Israel…. The United States has told Iran that we will defend Israel…
It gets even worse because the missles that Iran used were made in Russia.
And it’s looking like Russia is going to be an Iranian ally

I’m not wanting this post to go political guys,, I think this is the closest that I think Ive ever seen to a complete and full blown war.

Really? Same crap that’s been happening for years.

We're in a different world now.

I'm honestly curious that If the tax payer dollars and man power didn't go towards any of it would anyone legitimately care

I would. I've got sons that I'm sure some politician would love to draft to go die for some foreign country.

Fixed my previous statement

I think it would be safe to say that if taxpayer dollars didn't go towards it, AND US soldiers weren't involved, very few would care.

I bet the DEI troops will be in the rear with the gear.

Accurate. I don't give a whit what goes on over there, I just don't wanna pay for it and I don't want my kids to go die for it.

This

Don’t forget tax payers will probably be funding both sides of it either way.

Sorry I ran was broke until Biden lifted the sanctions. Reason nothing happened under TRUMP they didn't have the funds to buy rockets. Sanctions BOBO put on Russian oil made them hundreds of billions of dollars.

This is a little different.. because Russia would love to make it a little more complicated for the United States to send aid to Ukraine. I think this would be a little more like the Korea/vietnam proxy wars during the Cold War era with the potential for further escalation.

No worries, not much changed. RU, Iran, North Korea have always had each others backs. Maybe a few Tomahawks landing in Iran. What's RU going to do? Send more SA400s and some 7.62x39? China's the one sitting there loving it.

No way those incompetent dufuses could last 6 months against the Nato Alliance-the most powerful and capable military alliance in the world BAR NONE !

Might as well give them a gun and march with them to DC. If they are going to die I’d rather it be on this soil.

I get tired of you. It has the potential of not being as usual. That’s all he’s asking

My feeling exactly loosegoose. My boys are still to young yet but I don't think there is a thing over seas worth one of our soldiers geting a hang nail over.

Let them solve their own problems and with out our money. Had to many younger men dead and messed up physically and mentally all for war profits. They won't let them fight with out restrictions that put them at more risk. If we are going to fight then fight no gloves no restrictions.
Take from from a hospital ok don't go in and try to clear it and get some of our guys shot use the resources and level the building fron 20k feet and walk past the rubble.

War is ugly people die. Trying to make it anything else just encourages more war. Alolwo it to be as brutal as it needs to be to get it over as fast as possible with least risk to our troops . When the ugly face of war is exposed people will be less willing to jump into another one for a short time.

The majority of the US citizenry want a closed border; yet neither the D or R do anything to correct the problem. Just talk.

The majority of the US citizenry don't want more funding going to Ukraine, but neither the D or R do anything to correct the problem. Just talk
..
The majority of the US citizenry don't want a nuclear or global war, but neither the D or R do anything to correct the problem. Just talk.

The bankers and the financiers and the politicians, and the trick screwers will guarantee us into war. It is good business for them, but bad for all us involved.

I say to heck with them, and I don't buy it. Promoting war and death is not living by the Golden Rule. It is time we the people mandate the Govt to put in term limits and also no more lobbyists that make these rich.

You're deeply mistaken if you think the majority of people don't want more funding to go to Ukraine.
