it is obvious all the NATO weapons received from all diverse nations could not have been operated and maintained and mastered by Ukraine so quickly and put to use against the Russians.

Akim this was a war which Ukraine was a proxy Zelensky was a puppet placed by the west. This war was a gamble where EU/ US/ could lose very little . Unfortunately it is Ukrainians that suffered. If NATo puts boots on the ground they will directly have a lot more to lose. After 39 NATo nations...

EU/ NATO does not have the guts or resources to put boots in the ground . Russians have contingency plans with 1.2 million troops in reserve and many more coming from other parts of the world . There have always been NATo troops in Ukraine who have been getting slaughtered like the Ukrainians...

one report I saw recently was a bomb ingredient nitrocellulose sale to Russia have skyrocketed For China and they also banned the item for EU. I am sure there are other sources but this is a clear indication; no nitrocellulose no bombs, no bombs no war victory...

Historically I cannot think of one ally who has offered cash to USA (except saudis) and the European allies have a habit of making token offers of men. Many other allies don't want to be dragged into a war with their neighbors to help US interests. Ukraine was foolishly willing because...

with a fake 37% percent approval rating, dementia, impeachment threat and a son possibly going to jail. I don't think he will be two terms . IMO

I don't think USA can even fight a small Asian country with it's inventory, forget the real fight that is waiting for them against a well stocked China, Russia ,North Korea, or Iran. US weapons have become exceedingly expensive that cannot be easily maintained in an economic downturn.

US has depleted it's ammunition inventory and other items . Retired Col Douglas Macgregor estimates that it will take 10 years to replenish just the inventory USA needs; for NATO it would be a lot longer , many newer generation items maybe out by then from other countries?? Any new weapons...

US had a choice to have Iran accept the petrodollar, Iran had a puppet and was pro west at the time it could have solved many present day dilemmas? The British were leaning towards Saudis and and the ruling family so that is what may have swayed USA?

Saudis would have been rich anyway they had a commodity the whole world needed. If they had diversified the currencies they accepted they would have had many more customers and would not have to be at the mercy of USA. Saudi influence was limited in matters that related to Israel it had no...

The trend started with Kennedy to go of the gold standard. USA still enjoyed many decades of growth and prosperity after leaving the gold standard. I still don't understand how it benefitted the saudis to adopt the petrodollar???????

In terms of casualties yes but economically there were no repercussions for the dollar or us economy.

This war may be the most damaging war for USA. If BRICS and de dollarfization picks up pace US economy/dollar is finished and little to nothing gained from it.

Elections are coming next year and it looks like a landslide victory for republicans? Democrats in a few years have turned USA into a third world country (in many major cities)
