If you believe Putin will use nukes if he loses, then we should stop helping Ukraine now. If you believe he wont, then we have to maximize weapons transfers to Ukraine so its military can win. Giving them javelins, stingers, and helicopters but not jets is a STUPID line to draw.

The Pentagon rejected a surprise announcement from Poland that it would give the United States its MiG-29 fighter jets for use by Ukraine. A transfer of the MiGs to Ukraine is fraught with complications and could further inflame tensions with Russia.

(17,230 posts)Because Putler might call us Enemy combatants, tell him bring it on, we'll go after Mother Russia from
the North, South, East, & West and allow Ukraine to fight by herself. Let's get all our Aircraft Carriers & support
ships fully loaded and and headed his direction on all sides. Dare him, he's daring us not to help Ukraine.
Meanwhile.....send Ukrainian pilots over to Poland to check out the new merchandise that has just arrived at
"Honest Joe's Surplus Fighter Jets", it's a new business and you can buy & fly away the same day.
