I don’t know what Jill’s political statement is, but I am willing to guess.

She’s in charge. She’s ‘royalty’ and Joe is her royal consort.

“A royal consort is a person of either sex who has an official status through an intimate relationship, often through marriage or concubinage, with a monarch.”

Be mad at Putin for not giving them a real tank.
~~~~~~~~~
Any tank can be destroyed if explosives are dropped down an open hatch. This is not the work of inspired genius.

Zelensky said last year that tanks are nice, but modern fighter jets were needed to win the war. He was right - the Ukraine is losing this war because Russia has air dominance.

Both Russia and the Ukraine fly drones. This is the first extensive use of drone warfare. But the main reason the Ukraine uses drone warfare to pick off slow moving tanks is because they have no real fighting air force. The Ukraine’s drones are, in effect, their ‘air force’ in this war.

So Russia has air dominance with fighter jets and air defenses, while the Ukraine lacks sufficient air defenses and lacks modern jets. Both have drones. And yet you celebrate as the Ukraine can no longer replace its dead or wounded, ‘fighting’ with an under equipped cohort of poorly trained men that continues to shrink.

The Ukraine is losing, obviously. They can’t stand up a runway near the border for the modern jets (older rebuilt F-16’s) they will slowly begin to receive at the end of the year. Construction efforts would be cratered with bombs. They can’t park jets where they need them because their lack of adequate air defenses mean the jets would be bombed. It would take years to build an adequate air defense system there. The Ukraine simply can’t win.

All this pointless death on both sides. Utter destruction of the Ukraine’s infrastructure. Your gleeful posts about killing soldiers in a tank reminds me of the head of Iran, gleefully laughing while dragging his fingers through the ashes of US servicemen Killed in action. You’re not celebrating victory over an enemy, you’re gleefully feeding on death while your country dies.

Don’t be a fool, if Putin pulled out the Russian Troops, the killing would just be starting as all Ukrainians in occupied lands would be shot for “Helping the Enemy”. It would be a bloodbath. No peace as the horror would just be starting for those who took Russia’s side—or were suspected of “helping” Russians. What would the victorious Ukraine troops do to the population? My bet it would be rape, murder, pillage and loot, like some mongol army of long ago. Wars are evil things that feed the worst (and sometimes best) in human beings.

I think he would eagerly post threads showing rapes, murders, pillaging and looting the same way he gleefully posted this thread, proudly  as if it means he and his people are superior geniuses. The AZOV Nazis were integrated into the Ukraine's national guard and their ideology (depravity, inhumanity) still adds 'seasoning' to the military culture there (i.e., feed the worse in human beings ),  and they would LOVE the scenario you describe.

Point's 1-5 of this article expose Fauci et. al. for lying about the 'vaccine'. Here are a few excerpts:

Fauci Confesses that Covid Vaccines Could Never Have Worked as Claimed

Facts previously dismissed as misinformation now admitted.

By HART Group, published on 15 February 2023

On 11 January 2023 a paper was published in Cell Host & Microbe titled “Rethinking next-generation vaccines for coronaviruses, influenza viruses, and other respiratory viruses”.

There are just 3 authors, one of whom is Anthony Fauci, who served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) from 1984 to 2022, and the chief medical advisor to the President from 2021 to 2022.

SNIP

Fauci made some bold claims about the Covid vaccines in order to justify such coercive policies, including that they would prevent infections and limit transmission of the virus to others. These claims were then picked up by political leaders worldwide and used to justify their own policies, even when – from early data – it became obvious that the vaccines did not prevent infections or reduce the viral load of those infected.

SNIP

In summary, this article reads like an admission of failure – of the vaccines to prevent infection and transmission at least. But the most notable point is that the reasons given are based on immunological theory and knowledge which was commonly known before 2020, meaning that the assertions made about them preventing infection and transmission must have been known – or at least strongly suspected – to be untrue. Is this lying? We leave it to the reader to judge.

Even after data emerged which confirmed the inability to block infection and transmission, the voices raising this were suppressed and censored by forces seemingly under the control of US Federal agencies, as we have seen from the “Twitter files” releases.

ransomnote excerpted: If this is even a real ruling, I have to wonder if any of the judges even talked to vaccine experts to find out what a vaccine is? A vaccine contains an antigen, which is something that causes the adaptive immune system to produce specific T-cells, B-cells, and antibodies that recognize that antigen. Since the Covid vaccines have this function, they are vaccines by any scientific definition. That's absurd reasoning. You know that, right? Pathogens and allergens contain antigens: "A pathogen is not an antigen, but pathogens contain antigens. A pathogen is an organism that causes disease. An antigen is part of a pathogen that activates the immune system and causes an immune response." Hint: by any antivaxxer "definition" of vaccines, there is no "real" vaccine, since no vaccine ever is capable of completely preventing disease in every person who receives it. A vaccine is only as good as the immune system of the person receiving it. That's not a hint, that's a distortion of the truth. It's not that people who know the Covid-19 'vaccine' isn't a vaccine ever stated that there has to be 100% effectiveness. Exceptions to vaccines are known. But the Covid19 'vaccines' as a rule  do not prevent infection, according to the CDC. You keep blaming the patient's immune system for the failure of the Covid19 'vaccine'. Apparently you're unaware that the CDC claims that the 'vaccine' was not intended to prevent disease. I guess by your reasoning there are no medically trained people at the CDC. Hint #2: most vaccines are not developed for the purpose of protection against disease. Most of the tens of thousands of vaccines in existence were created to cause animals to produce antibodies for research. A handful have been created to cause the production of antibodies for medical use. Vaccines created for medical use to teach people's immune systems how to fight disease are just a small subset of all the vaccines ever designed. Wow! That's pathetic! I guess the CDC should have worded their endless Covid 'vaccine' promotions by starting with, "Listen you filthy animals....." The public was not willingly participating in any research efforts. The public is QUITE OBVIOUSLY expecting a medical use vaccine which they've known and had for decades. The problem is, the medical community and research community betrayed them, like you're trying to do. Did you not realize that the definition of 'vaccine', before the medical regime tried to rewrite it, referred to the 'prevention' aspects suitable for humans? Dictionaries and medical professionals always referred to prevention until they needed CYA for their toxic, useless, unnecessary 'shots'. You people are desperate now. "HAR HAR HAR! Most vaccines are not for public use!"

This is why I hate MSM stories about how young people are 'choosing a different path' instead of deciding to work like their parents did. Supposedly they 'watched' and learned etc. It's as if these young are too wise to pay for a place to live, food, and transportation etc. Businesses were destroyed during the plandemic and Biden is bearing down on the remains of the economy, crushing with regulations  and hostile tactics.

“I suspect the pay would be very good.”

Not likely. The United States pays Ukrainian pensions, government salaries, first responders, humanitarian aid etc. The Ukrainian economy is gone and the region is now the US’s 51st welfare state.

Biden knows the Ukraine will not even begin to get a trickle of F-16’s until the end of the year, but the MSM has been pointing to the sky, saying ‘de planes! de planes are coming!” (old Fantasy Island television program reference) for over a year now.

Whatever Zelensky and his generals don’t skim off the aid package for themselves (yeah, they have a corruption pandemic) is not as much as they feel they ‘need’ to keep this farce going.

So how long can they keep those plane’s flying when the incompetent, corrupt government officials sell all the spare parts?

Actually, an analysis  done by CSIS, which wants the Ukraine to win this war, found that the Ukraine is thoroughly unequipped and lacking trained personel needed to service the F-16's.

First the Ukraine will receive a hodgepodge of old aircraft which increases labor/parts/training load because the jets vary in model/manufacture so specific planes will require specific handling.

Also, it's not like the US isn't supporting training. The Ukraine was just given $3.3 billion in that last aid package the traitors in Congress supported for the purpose of training (weapons, individuals, units), purchasing arms on the global market, and for the Ukraine to use to purchase directly from US manufactureres. Here's a quote  from the CSIS analysis:

Ukraine-related military activities ($17 billion) funds the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) ($13.8 billion) and U.S. intelligence operations ($3.3 billion). USAI provides funds for three things: training that Ukraine might need for new weapons, individuals, or units; the United States buying arms on the global market, which it has done extensively in the past to acquire Soviet-standard equipment that Ukrainian forces are accustomed to using; and Ukraine purchasing weapons and equipment directly from U.S. manufacturers.

You can’t get peace until both sides really want it, and both sides get some kind of security. Both armies are not depleted. So the war will continue. The Korean War continued because both sides realized that there was no point to waste lives for few acres of territory. Putin is fighting the war for his political survival. If he loses, he may get overthrown. The Ukrainians are preventing the Holodomor from happening again.

The Ukrainian military is depleted. I started posting about the Ukrainian official's pleas for more ammunition last year. It's a slaughter, with under supplied Ukrainian conscripts going up against well supplied Russian troops. Putin is popular -the public correctly sees this NATO proxy war as a threat to their sovereinty.

The Ukrainians are not preventing the Holodomor from happening again - the Deep State is protecting it's Ukrainian headquarters while they labor to destroy Russia. NATO's plan for world peace, which the neocons simply do not want, is to disarm the rest of the world so that only NATO may be in control. People like me want to avoid NATO's 'New (One) World Order' comprised of unelected fascists (NATO, WHO, UN, WEF).

Biden continues to help the Russian by slow walking F-16 pilot training and also by restricting the number of slots and the urgency of the program. It's a huge money maker for Lockheed Martin, RTX Corporation, Northrop Grumman, Boeing and General Dynamics. That's why we are not trying to wrap up this thing.

Lockheed Martin has a backlog of over a year for ordered F-16s from nations around the world. Belgium is awaiting manufacture of it's F-16's as are many other nations. The Ukraine will receive Belgiums old rebuilt F-16's at a slow pace as one, by one, Belgium's order from lockheed is delivered. 'We' are not dragging 'our' feet.

Would 1000 M1 Abrams out of storage and with ammo, fuel and experienced crews make a difference? Easier to defend the territory plus with planes. The Russians won't be able to make a breakthrough.

Just as Zelensky said from the beginning, "Tanks are nice but we need advanced fighter jets."

Without adequate air support systems, the tanks are sitting targets.

COVID PING

WHO is trying to kick off Plandemic 2.0 by falsely claiming to identify the first human victim of ‘avian flu’, a man that actually died from other causes.

World Health Organization's first advertised Avian flu death actually died of other causes, 'mainly kidney and respiratory failure.' They are repeating the Plandemic 1.0 tactics.

What weapon systems would you add to make America's effort more serious? As of January 2023, the U.S. military had an estimated 3,500 M1A1/A2 Abrams tanks in storage. We need to get our factories going with artillery shells. But we're not really doing any of that.

 Zelensky said earlier last year that tanks are nice but they needed advanced jets to win. He was correct, the tanks we sent were not protected with sufficient air defenses and are reoutinely destroyed by Russia. Tanks are hard to reposition and some ended up on the wrong side of rivers, like the Dniper. Tanks are not game changers. They have their limitations as has been demonstrated thus far. That's why Zelensky is not complaining about tanks, or tank training, but about F-16 training.

Here's a novel idea: Use those first 20 Ukraine F-16 pilots and have them train the rest of the Ukraine pilots. Ukraine said that they were only sending veteran fully-qualified MiG-29 pilots for F-16 training, so the training is type familiarization, not a full flight school. the Ukraines should be able to handle putting together their own school with their first batch of F-16 trained pilots.

I believe the Ukraine is lying about only sending veteran fully-qualifed MiG-29 pilots for F-16 training. Others have said some pilots are new to flying and all the pilots have to struggle to cross the language barrier, so capacity to function in English was part of the requirements.

They may do well to use your 'train the trainer' method but the Ukraine won't receive enough F-16's (said  to be arriving slowly starting end of 2024 until 2028) to save themselves, particularly with their lack of air defenses to protect the jets and runways they'd need to construct.
