Russia is sending 76-year-old men into battle now

[@JakeBroe]

Let me clarify what I said in this video since it has potentially offended some people. The population of Russia is 146 million. The population of the EU is 449 million. Add in Ukraine and the UK and the population of countries in Europe who should be opposing Russian fascism is over 550 million people. If the European continent does not want to become subordinate to a revived fascist Russian Empire then they easily have the population and resources to do so without the help of allies in North America and the Pacific. Now, The United States can and should be doing more. It is America’s responsibility and commitment to global peace and security that serves our own national interest. I will never stop fighting and advocating for The United States to be doing more militarily to support Ukraine and Europe. But… I spend all day every day researching information online and 99% of ALL critical comments I read directed towards Ukraine’s allies is directed solely at The United States. The hate I read directed every day by Europeans at America for not doing enough is nauseating. It is exhausting and counterproductive and these comments are not going to change the policy or opinion of either Joe Biden or Jake Sullivan the last three months of their administration. We have to potentially get past Nov 5th or Jan 20th for any policies to change. All these hate comments are alienating and offensive to a lot of Americans and Americans are reading these comments the week before our election wondering what is the point of helping Europe if nothing we do is ever good enough. I am not exaggerating. If Trump wins then Europe has lost America as an ally all together and America will descend into political anarchy the next 4 years. You will be completely on your own with the Russians and their subordinate states (Hungary, Slovakia, etc). I am just asking for people to be more considerate and respectful when blasting comments on social media. Directing all your hate and frustration at only The United States for this war dragging on for almost three years is easy to do. It also accomplishes nothing. I know people are frustrated. But work on what you think you can do to be helpful and productive towards supporting Ukraine. The Russians are corrupt, incompetent, and their economy is on the verge of collapse now with their central bank interest rates hitting 21% to combat their rampant inflation. Russia is hurting and will break first. Be safe everyone!

I totally agree with you Jake, I'm Danish and I didn't take offense! Some countries in Europe NEED to pull themselves together and do more before it's too late.

There are of course the usual anti US idiots, but there are also things that only the US can do, such as releasing the Ukrainians to use the reach of US missiles inside Russia.

It broke my heart when I saw the exchange in which Western leaders essentially said that Zelensky's "Victory Plan" was "too much." And then Zelensky replied in effect that "It is too much for us to live?" That sums it up perfectly. Ukraine is fighting for its right to live. Russia is an evil, cruel country with a rabidly dysfunctional government and no rational nation or government should want to be within its power. Nor do the Ukrainian people want that; they know from experience how bad Russian domination would be. It is America's moral duty to support Ukraine to the fullest and to do so is absolutely within America's own self-interest. Supporting Ukrainian victory, far more than we have done to the present time, is the only sensible policy for America to follow, and it is also the morally correct thing to do. It is a no-brainer.

It is counterproductive and demoralizes those who want to help. We carry on in the face of these attacks, but it is tiring.

[@Nidrog]

While I agree that Gripen would be a fantastic aircraft for Ukraine I don't think we have enough to really give. To give the same amount as been pledged to Ukraine in F16's so around 65ish. We'd have to give up close to 2/3's of our avaliable C/D types. And given how our aircrafts are one of our main thing to contribute to NATO (Especially launched off Gotland) incase of a Russian attack in the Baltics, I think its a valid reason to not give them out, especially when there are so many more F16's to give to Ukraine. F16's makes for a good priority to give to start to take back the skys. Gripen can come in later for sure like the talks about the Eurofighter also being provided to Ukraine.

[@fainitesbarley2245]

Same as UK long range missiles - US parts and US says no.

[@The_Judge300]

I 100% agree with you. Even if Sweden might not have many Gripen to give to Ukraine at the moment is still the main principle of what you say extremely important and valid. The US are stopping other countries from helping Ukraine by using the argument that they have a few US made parts in them. The US love to talk about how much they have helped Ukraine and that Europe should do more, and that is extremely hilarious considering the fact that the US in reality have not sent a LOT of the help they have promised and at the same time stopping European countries from given weapons they want to give and/or stopping Ukraine to use them against military targets inside Russia. The White House and Pentagon are hypocrites and cowards.

[@GrahamCStrouse]

The Gripen is a fantastic strike aircraft. Unless they come with pilots it’s not going to make a difference, though. You can train someone up on a modern fighter like you can on a ground vehicle. Also, Sweden doesn’t have very many Gripens to start with.

Even if he wasn’t lying sack of shit.… Even if he wanted to make good all his promises to soldiers… there’s no money to pay them. No, most likely he will simply default on any obligations to the dead or injured. And if all else fails, he’ll simply allow extreme hyper inflation so that the $20,000 benefit ends up being worth $30. or something.

Kyiv, not Kiev.

I know so many people who really appreciate what the US is doing and I absolutely agree that the Europeans have to put more effort in Ukraines victory. All democracies have to stand together as one and operate with mighty power. For Ukraine 🇺🇦 and for all democracies around the world.

Thanks you Jake. May God bless your good heart !

That Russia would even think of dealing over the power plant/refinery thing, shows Russian weakness...seems huge to me. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦

Ukraine was using US rockets. Russia told Biden. Biden made Ukraine stop. Ukraine started using their own drones and russians negotiated. Imagine if Biden wasn't there to help Russians!
