I also imagine that vast majority of that 800b will go into funding oligarch owned companies anyways, so it's just a sneaky way to do a wealth transfer to begin with
money can't bring back all the dead Ukrainians to fight the Russians.
it'd be a real shame if we turned loose all these Nazi serial killers who know how to bomb people with cheap robotsDoes anyone from Reddit or even taking a centrist point of the war realize this? Ukraine is going to be an absolutely fertile ground for terror-reactionaries and nationalist groups ready to dismantle both the "heckin strong Zelensky governmenterino!" and export that bullshit back to America where people will be more than happy to gargle that shit up?
Or start throwing these things towards groups in Europe. Like every single time America has ever gotten involved in a international conflict it leaves nothing but shit and ashes behind mixed with countless western-backed or previously western-backed terror groups running off the billions lost in the void of international financing. Fuck man.
I had to read the article to make sure that you weren’t joking when you said ‘£800 billion’. How can any adult look at that number and find it reasonable? That should be a cue that the war needs to stop.
To turn the tide of the war, Ukraine will need to spend the equivalent of China’s $200 billion defence budget “three or four times” over, he says. This aligns with the assessment of senior British military figures, with one saying they think Ukraine needs another $300 billion to match Russia’s output.
Ugh.
It's such an obscene number that I want to write it on an artillery shell and fire it into Ukraine myself. Zelenskyy and the liberals who got us here should be forced to drink molten gold worth that amount just for saying it.
