Can Russia afford to defend its western front in Ukraine AND try to attack the US through Iran via Israel? What’s going to happen with the US when China cranks things up in Taiwan?

These are the forces in play here from where I sit. Where in this world these plays are happening is irrelevant, because it’s the good ol’ free capitalist vs commies game still happening because economics and distraction from troubles at home.

Russia is like a slow apocalypse. It's a tradedgy for everyone.

It is heartbreaking to see the bad guys win in slow-motion.

The US is an unreliable ally.

What's Europe doing?

It's matching and/or surpassing the contributions of the ally that has been given massive concessions for the last two generations to counter this exact threat.

Sure, throw that out there. But seriously, why does Ukraine rely so heavily on one country when Europe can be asked to step up. Shit on me all you want but why is no one asking why Europe isn't stepping up for the obviously wavering US? Russia will fuck Europe the moment it is able - why isn't it more concerned with preservation of Ukraine l?

It's sad that we claim to support Ukraine, but can't even manage to match production to their needs after more than 2 years.
The effort from the west does not seem wholehearted.
Especially USA that has failed to bypass MAGA obstruction led by Trump.
USA is failing Europe as a trustworthy ally, stalled by Russian propaganda and internal traitors to both USA, their allies and democracy, with false claims that Russia is supporting Christianity, when in reality Christianity in Russia is controlled by FSB! As in their "religious leaders" are literally KGB/FSB agents. If you are a Christian, Russia is your enemy too.

I agree with what you write, but Europe is failing too. Russia isn't that big of a country, it should be easy for Europe to support Ukraine enough even without USA.

Europe needs to give more and have more military production ourselves, we should think Europe first and keep the production here. More than half is currently imported from USA.

Yes Europe has failed too, that's why I write the WEST has failed. It's also Europe that claims to help Ukraine, not USA.
So I kind of point to Europe twice, but USA is still failing to support Ukraine and Europe for 7 months now.
There are some countries that really do a lot, but as a whole we are failing Ukraine.

This is the Republicans fault. 100% because those child diddlers got their server hacked in 2016. They are going to let NATO down as well.

They have no honor, no courage, and they literally stab everyone and everything in the back to save themselves.

Why would you get your server hacked when trump just gives that data to putin to secure his own ass?
