Yeah, Germany's liberal foreign minister is not helping... Americans already think the Germans are full of sauerkraut as proven with their lax immigration laws. Europe, has long since spent it's money on social programs to the point they have no military strength/spending anymore. I doubt they could fight out of an wet paper bag. Poland seems to be the only country one can take seriously.

It seems keeping Russia and Ukraine at a standoff might be a ploy (who knows)... sorta like keeping the Palestinians in Israel because they are a constant thorn without having to get involved. IDK... it is too complicated for me.

Hegseth had no answer this morning as to what concessions Russia was making, or what Putin was putting on the table...

At the 06:45 Mark:

REPORTER: You focused on what Ukraine has to give up. What concessions will be demanded of Putin?

HEGSETH: Hmm. I would start by saying that the arguments that have been made that somehow sitting down at the table right now is making concessions to Vladimir Putin, I just reject that outright.

REPORTER: Yes, but every “peace talk” so far has been about what Ukraine has to give up – territory, NATO aspirations, sovereignty. So what exactly is Putin putting on the table?

HEGSETH: Well, I don’t think it’s fair to say that we’re just giving concessions to Putin.

REPORTER: Okay, is he pulling out the Russian troops? Paying reparations? Admitting war crimes? Or is his big “compromise” that he’s just taking less from Ukraine than he originally wanted?

HEGSETH: Look, negotiations require both sides to make sacrifices.

REPORTER: Yes, but only one side has launched a full-scale invasion. If a guy steals your house and offers to give you back half of your living room, that's not a "compromise" - that's a hostage deal.

HEGSETH: I just think it's time for diplomacy.

REPORTER: Diplomacy is great when both sides want peace. But when one side just wants a "pause" to recharge, that's not diplomacy - that's setting up for the next invasion.

HEGSETH: So you're saying no negotiations, just endless war?

REPORTER: No, I'm saying that a peace agreement where only one side makes sacrifices is not peace - that's a better saying for surrender.

The EU countries can deliver outdated or obsolete equipment (like the U.S. is doing) and purchase updated equipment from EU manufacturers.

The smoke will impact video equipped drones, but should not impact drones with thermal cameras.

So, basically, Trump is rolling over like a lovesick puppy and selling out Ukraine to Russia.  What a fu_cking disappointment.
