I mean it’ll kill some Russians and help a little, but a few fairly outdated aircraft aren’t going to turn the tide of the war. If our goal is to cause Russians to bleed a bit more, I suppose it helps, but I’m not sure it’s worth the risk.

I dunno man. That convoy that's been stuck for a week might be an easier target with more planes. If Ukraine had the proper air support that would be the equivalent to Kuwaits highway of death

It is true the US would make quick work of it. I suspect the Russians wouldn’t leave a vulnerable convoy out there like that against the US, though, who who knows. ?‍♂️
 
Political post was deleted but keep in mind if any other former POTUS makes a statement and it gets posted, it too will be deleted. And it was deleted because it was political, try not to make it worse by adding unnecessary commentary to your reports.

Thank you

It's either get stuck on the road or in the mud.

China asking them to wait a few more weeks till after the winter Olympics may have been a huge game changer here.

Since everyone is convinced Putin won't use nukes, this seems like a great time to destroy the Russian army while its bogged down in the Ukrainian mud.

This seems like an odd thing to say.

I feel like every twitter post or article ive read today are just opinion pieces or misinformation to garner clicks

That's the way it works now. And the really ironic thing is, you can actually post real information, and Twitter will delete it and classify it as misinformation. What a bizarre world we live in.

Pentagon says Poland's jet offer for Ukraine 'not tenable'

The Pentagon said Tuesday that Poland's offer to give its MiG-29 fighter jets to the U.S. so they can be passed to Ukraine raises serious concerns for the NATO alliance and the plan is not “a tenable one.” Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said in a statement that the prospect of jets...

I just assumed that if Poland transferred them to Ukraine, they would also be flying them, which would be the same situation as described here. (transfer from NATO country)

Maybe the US envisioned Poland transferring them on the ground through their border instead? I'm confused..

I’m still not convinced Putin won’t use tactical nukes if the Russian army gets stalemated and there’s an opportunity where they’ll make a real difference. What’s the West really going to do? We’ve already sanctioned the hell out of Russia and are arming Ukraine to the teeth. What’s left besides outright intervention?

Not sure what difference that will make. Its not going to end in Ukraine surrendering.
