Aid = killing machines/devices. IMO aid should be something that if it were given to any human they would survive. Is the world safer after iraq? Is the world safer after afghanistan? Is the world safer after ww2? The USA has been at war longer than it has been at peace. www.youtube.com

Brennan, every dollar spent killing Russians is an investment in a better world.
As for Iraq, Dubya s oil company masters had him invade the war country. Should have been Sawedi alquedia which would have been great for the world.

But it's not going to killing Russians.

Also Russia is making great gains in Ukraine as well.

Good money after bad ..

Say "hi" to your grandchildren, you know, the ones soon to be working in the mine pits.

" it's not going to killing Russians."

Um ... where in the equation do you see that? Specifically.

In a related question, when we send $1 billion in aid to the Ukraine, does that mean we've sent cash, or are we talking about the non-depreciated value of old equipment?
