    I don't. I never said I did, so quit assuming crap. It's all so sickening. All these power mongering rulers bombing and killing because they can't come to agreements, be it power, pure evil, religion, hatred for each other, wanting to take over lands, or whatever else drives them to kill to achieve their goals.

    I assume you're talking about Putin, Sinwar, and Khameni.

    You can air your opinions about how you feel about leaders using weapons to to kill for land, minerals, religion, power, oil, hate, evil, or power quests yourself. As for me, I support our nation defending itself or supporting our allies if they are attacked. I support defending Democracies around the world against regimes attacking them, and don't support regimes led by leaders who commit crimes upon humanity. I support lending aid to those starving to death, being targeted out of hate, and needing to escape from those type regimes. I don't agree with separating ourselves from any of our Western allies who believe in Democracy for all. I prefer peace over war, religious freedom, and acceptance of all who aren't endangering anyone else by their choice of lifestyle, their race, or their culture. I just wish all world leaders felt the same.

    I feel those people were manipulated and taken out of context by a lame social media post. How do you feel about them, gramps?

    Zelensky and Ukraine defending themselves did not and does not shut down chances for a peach agreement.

    Hilarious how @Space Ghost stopped spamming this thread calling democrats war mongers as soon as the iran war broke out. His brain is completely cooked after seeing Republicans backing another endless middle Eastern war. These are people he worships and looks up to who have shattered his thinking

    Bigger than SpaceGhost who is just an online activist… what about freaking Tulsi Gabbard who if you had a dollar for every time she said “regime change wars” you’d be a millionaire by now .

    Everything this new arm of the MAGA cult said they stood for is about to get completely flipped on its head and they’ll all have to eat sh$t because they know they can never go back once they turned their back on the pro democracy side of America, spit in their faces, and called us the worst of the worst.

    Now we are on the eve of them having to come here with a straight face knowing that they are actually just another W/Cheney supporter. They are now everything they said they hate.

    Ukraine has to be looking at Israel right now and thinking why didn't America give us weapons like that? Israel neutered the Russian equipped Iranian air defenses in a matter of hours.

    If America was really "all in" on defending Ukraine under Biden a lot more Russians would be dead. We were never going to risk the kind of escalation it would have taken to totally stop Russia... which we absolutely could have done.

    Ukraine is the ultimate "forever war" because all we wanted to do is drag it out and hope Russia quits.

    The solution would have been giving Ukraine the Typhon missile system. We were scared of the Russian reaction.

    Right.

    There is absolutely nothing stopping Donald Trump from giving Ukraine more weapons right now.

    Ukraine did not fall under Biden - it would be a shame or, really a self-fulfilling prophesy if Ukraine falls under Trump because he doesn't give them weapons.

    As for Biden, I am amongst a small group of people that believed Biden should have been giving more than he did, and we could have worked out an alliance beneficial. Having said that, Biden did provide some- and Ukraine did not fall under her term.

    As for Iran - the US is involved because we have handed out weapons to Israel like they are candy - but we do not need to get any more involved than we already are.
