Blowback? at this time of year? biden-horror

[-] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 85 points 10 months ago

Zelenskyy could have asked the South Vietnamese leaders for advice on exactly how this conflict was going to go. The US tells you when and how to fight, for how long, and when to surrender.

Feels like he's going to get to compare notes with Ngo Dinh Diem real soon

White House National Security Council strategic communications coordinator John Kirby said at a briefing Thursday that "the assistance we were providing has come to a halt."

The White House official also said it is very important that Congress continues to approve the allocation of money to Ukraine. He stressed that Kiev needs help more urgently during the winter period.

kinda very misleading headline tbh

[-] 420blazeit69@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago

I don't think misleading, more like incomplete (but hey, it's a headline).

The real question is whether we will send more or if that comment from the White House is kicking responsibility for the shutdown onto Congress.

[-] freagle@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 10 months ago

How is it misleading? Nat sec rhetorically says it's important, passes the baton to Congress. Congress won't act. No one will ask why Biden can bypass Congress for Israel but not for Ukraine.

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 49 points 10 months ago

We will support Ukraine for as long as convenient

Republicans are better than democrats on this lol

[-] Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago

Only cuz they want to refocus on fucking with Iran and China

[-] 420blazeit69@hexbear.net 21 points 10 months ago

Republicans, regardless of what they say, have the exact same position as Democrats on this

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 18 points 10 months ago

Yeah good point. Foreign policy is not democratized in any way.

[-] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 36 points 10 months ago

It's because Ukraine has achieved all its strategic objectives

Friendship ended with nazis. Now zionists are my best friend.

[-] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 27 points 10 months ago

Who could have seen this coming? Some kind of Pac Man looking dude, but instead of only having a big mouth he is just one big eyeball? An oracle granted the gift of foresight by the gods of Olympus, surgically grafted to the Hubble telescope? Some kind of special forces operator known only as "Spotter Wolf" who is teaching a teenage miscreant how to rescue his kidnapped girlfriend from the Taliban using nothing but throwing knives? They probably could see this coming.

They and no one else.

[-] stmcld@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 10 months ago

[-] Sinistar@hexbear.net 25 points 10 months ago

[-] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 19 points 10 months ago

A basic understanding of the US being an asshole country does wonders for your ability to predict and understand global events.

[-] bubbalu@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago

A statement leaked to Telesur from a Kyev insider by Anthony Blinken reads 'Dear Ukes, while we had hoped to fight this war to the last ukranian, we have found a browner target for our bombs. Hopefully you can understand. glhf it's been real!
