Yak Yak..

 

The relationships might be close, the handshakes might have been firm, but President Volodymyr Zelensky had to roll his sleeves up during his trip to the US and Canada.

The latter was the easier end. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised to support Ukraine "for as long as it takes" against Russia's invasion, and he has cross-party support in that endeavor.

America's pockets are deeper, but its politics are far more complicated.

President Zelensky secured another $325m (£265m) military package from the White House, but it wasn't the $24bn biggie he'd been hoping for.

Let us not forget the Ukraine wanted to join Nato where the G7 wanted to surround Russia with Military bases. The war then broke up with a cost so far in GDP, Inflation cost, Oil Prices, food shortage and food prices exceeds trillions of dollars to the G7.   Just a thought.

Alliances..

 

Close..

 

Are we really that close? Think about it.

Humanitarian..

 

Joe Biden has defended the “difficult decision” to send widely banned cluster munitions to Ukraine, after he was condemned by human rights groups and a fellow Democrat said it was “unnecessary and a terrible mistake”.

Hana..

 

U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said: “As the grand jury charged, between 2018 and 2022, Senator Menendez and his wife engaged in a corrupt relationship.

As part of the scheme, MENENDEZ provided sensitive, non-public U.S. government information to Egyptian officials and otherwise took steps to secretly aid the Government of Egypt.  For example, in or about May 2018, MENENDEZ provided Egyptian officials with non-public information regarding the number and nationality of persons serving at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, Egypt.  

Although this information was not classified, it was deemed highly sensitive.
At various times between 2018 and 2022, MENENDEZ also conveyed to Egyptian officials, through NADINE MENENDEZ, HANA, and/or DAIBES, that he would approve or remove holds on foreign military financing and sales of military equipment to Egypt in connection with his leadership role on the SFRC.

However, IS EG Halal had little to no revenue until the spring of 2019, when the Government of Egypt granted IS EG Halal a monopoly on the certification of U.S. food exports to Egypt as compliant with halal standards, despite the fact that neither HANA nor his company had experience with halal certification.  The monopoly generated revenue for HANA, through which he paid NADINE MENENDEZ as promised.   

Mis..

 

FFF

 

Since the F35 was first pitched in the early 1990s, a host of catastrophes, setbacks and cost overruns have made the F-35 the object of mass ridicule outside the Pentagon. 

The plane hasn’t exactly been the most reliable in general. The likely crash in the Carolinas makes the ninth total crash since the plane came into operation and has been grounded multiple times for reasons ranging from “can’t deliver oxygen to pilots” to “its allergic to its namesake.” 

Other issues have included one variant having machine guns that can’t shoot straight and the Pentagon needing to cap how long the planes can handle flying at top speed.

Indict..

 

This is the most fun cartoon I have seen lately. Look carefully and get the message, understand what is being said. The Democratic DOJ will not indict a setting one.   Just a thought.

Failed..

 

The U.S. intelligence community assesses that Ukraine’s counteroffensive will fail to reach the key southeastern city of Melitopol, (Washington Post) a finding that, would mean Kyiv won’t fulfill its principal objective of severing Russia’s land bridge to Crimea in this year’s push.


The grim assessment is based on Russia’s proficiency in defending occupied territory through a phalanx of minefields and trenches, and is likely to prompt finger pointing inside Kyiv and Western capitals about why a counteroffensive that saw tens of billions of dollars of Western weapons and military equipment fell short of its goals.( Around 300 Billion Dollars so far.)                                                                                                                                                                         These reports are coming out purposely at this time. After all the assistance in Military hardware, the continue inelegance services provided by the west and the many claims of Defending the fragile democracy, the outcome is just grim.  May be peace ought to be sought, where less killings, less war machineries, less hate, less hurt, less inflation, less poverty and less refugees.  A year and a half passed. We don't have that much Human and non human resources to hate Peace.
