So Russia can launch > 80 missiles & Iranian drones at Kyiv playgrounds, apartment bldgs, civilians freely & the U.S. won’t publicly give Ukraine rockets (ATACMS) to help defend their land, inside Ukraine, because we are scared of what Putin will do? Stop the appeasement!
52
God damn it that is powerful. This is what I felt when I visited Ukraine to study the battle of Kyiv. A country united, a people fighting for each other, their families, their freedom. twitter.com/Jbond069/statu…

You must choose a side. You’re either pro-Ukraine or pro-Russia. You’re pro-good guys or pro-evil guys. Yes, I do try to make objective assessments of the military and political situation. But I am or course pro-Ukrainian (good guys), pro-freedom, pro-democracy, pro-laws of war.

.@ZelenskyyUa & #Ukriane is teaching the world what military leaders have known for centuries. Soldiers don't fight for dictators or when forced, coerced, or paid to. They fight for a cause, for their families, and for each other. Ukraine has the will & power. They will prevail.

Thanks @amnesty for giving me an example to show others what happens when people are disconnected from the realities of war, know little about warfare. Conclusion "Ukraine military should stay and die in the open fields and wooded areas." Shame on you. amnesty.org/en/latest/news…

While it is clear a Ukrainian counteroffensive in Kherson is happening, recent reports say Putin has fired 6 more top generals, sidelined his Defense Minister, and is directly commanding the Ukraine war. That is a great recipe for failure. #SlavaUkraini dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Great! Now let’s do the same in the U.S. npr.org/2022/05/10/109…

Putin is our generation's Hitler. We (the free world) either help Ukraine defeat his aggression now or pay a major price in the near future. Appeasement has never worked with evil men. #ArmUkraineNow

It’s HIMARS’oclock across Ukraine! (Unknown source of photo, but I love it).

The battle of #Kyiv is coming. Ukrainians must never stop preparing the defense: blocking all roads/alleys/doors/windows, setting up caches/fighting positions, putting holes in walls 2 move between bldgs & shoot thru, digging, & being ready to both get underground/ready to fight!
61
Putin has lost his illegal war in Ukraine. He doesn’t have the means to break the will of the Ukrainian people to continue fighting. He doesn’t have the means to break the will of the west supporting Ukraine. The only question is how many Russian soldiers die before he stops?
62
Thank you Russia for your donations to Ukraine’s military. But seriously, it blows my old soldier mind the amounts of vehicles, ammo, supplies reported/seen abandoned by Russian soldiers - panic, no will to fight, broken. twitter.com/MrKovalenko/st…

I missed this. @TuckerCarlson critizied @ZelenskyyUa " the president of Ukraine arrived at the White House like the manager of a strip club and started to demand money. Amazingly, no one threw him out.” Tucker is a cancer to American ideas, hate monger. newsweek.com/tucker-carlson…

The fact that the UN Charter has NO mechanism to remove a permeant member (oh say when they are committing genocide on another member state, violating the charter) of the UN Security Council is insanity. Either amend the charter or disband the council & start something different.

"We really need to stop providing Ukraine just enough so it doesn't lose...we need to start giving Ukraine the things its asking for to win, to reclaim its sovereign territory." It was a honor to join @AnaCabrera on one of her last days @CNN 🥲 Best of luck in your next endeavor!

Thank you Turkey. twitter.com/UkraineNewsLiv…

Just the mention of Ukraine getting Bradley IFVs excites me.
- Armed with a 25mm cannon, 7.62mm machine gun, and 2 TOW Anti-tank launchers
- Crew of 3. Can carry 7 infantry dismounts
- Spaced laminate armor. Can add reactive
- Advanced sighting/positioning software/capability

The biggest weapon supplier to Ukraine today is…Russia! Russian soldiers leaving all their ammo, weapons, equipment behind as they retreat in mass in multiple locations.
72
There is no stalemate in Ukraine. Anyone that claims it is not educated in strategy, military affairs, or the situation on the ground in Ukraine.

The best response to Russia’s strike on NATO territory, killing Polish/NATO citizens is overwhelming immediate increase in lethal military aid to Ukraine so they can end the war quickly. Give them ATACMS for f**k sake. Tanks, IFVs, planes, send it all.

I can’t say it enough, @ZelenskyyUa is one of our generation’s greatest leaders. He has already taken his place amongst giants. Churchill, Washington, and others. twitter.com/TelegraphWorld…
