I think the Russian forces received parts from the US of their firepower:


400,000 jeeps & trucks
14,000 airplanes
8,000 tractors
13,000 tanks
1.5 million blankets
15 million pairs of army boots
107,000 tons of cotton
2.7 million tons of petrol products
4.5 million tons of food

The British also gave them stuff - for example Hawker Hurricanes, Spitfires and Handley Page Hampden bombers.

The media could drop all the guff reporting about the royals and increase Ukraine reporting and still leave room for Gaza/israel.

Absolutely. However it helps the collective head-in-sand attitude of the UK to report about the Royals, the Scotland Bill on gender recognition, a Finnish school shooting and a fire in an Istanbul nightclub as a priority.

I doubt the UK has the metal needed to fight the war that is looming larger by the day.

I dont want innocent people or anyone for that matter dying or suffering but tbh i dont car bout this war. 2 lots of people who believe in the man in the sky but not the right mn in the sky so hate each other and they both picked the same area to believe their man in the skys origins are. Or something like that.
Each others youth will hate each other for years as a result of this.
