    Ensign, you are either knowingly trolling, or have been fooled into helping some pro-Putin, pro-Russian operatives attempting to spread lies about what I presume is YOUR COUNTRY.

    I know this, because when I click on the link provided by this "David Sacks" fellow, who is providing the "post" from the fellow called "Lord Bebo" who is providing the so-called "Newsweek" "article" - what do I get? This:

    I haven't read it -- just found it interesting you didn't think it was true because of a broken link. Took me three seconds to find on google:

    The US did not sign a treaty prohibiting the use of the Death Star. @No Worries is perfectly fine with Biden allowing the Ukrainian government to use it on Russia.

    Met a guy this week who grew up in Kharkiv. Left in the 90’s for the States. His stories about his mom still being there when the Russians invaded and his friends’ kids who are still serving in defense of their country were just amazing

    If Biden did actually give Zelensky everything he asked for they would’ve already had F-16s and even more sophisticated fighters.

    On cluster munitions I think it’s a bad idea to give them and to use them. My understanding is that they are very indiscriminate and that unexplored “bomblets” end up born land mines that can cause problems long after a war is over.

    I read somewhere that the AFU wants to use the bomblets as individual munitions on drones.

    Party is getting late and people are starting to raid the top shelf stuff.

    Big cringe on the cluster bomb cluster ****. Russians already DGAF...such is war and the notion that each side remains rational as time passes.
