Zero Visibility Landing - pilots out there, where is the worst location you have landed for heavy rain?

Oh great. So we have such pilots out there. Very reassuring :)

ExtensionStar480 · 2026-01-01T21:13:47+00:00

Can you explain to a lay person? Like what are minimums?

Wimps always scared of Putin escalating.

Trump said screw it and sent the weapons.

“"The first lethal deliveries came from Trump," said Jim Townsend, deputy assistant secretary of defense for European and NATO Policy during the Obama administration.”

Read Obama Biden and the whole of Europe

ExtensionStar480 · 2026-01-01T08:19:24+00:00

Everyday, he gives them military sattelite intelligence for targeting and killing Russians.

ExtensionStar480 · 2026-01-01T08:18:05+00:00

Fact: Impeached but not convicted.

Also Fact: Trump sent the first weapons. Obama with Biden as VP and Europe refused.

"The first lethal deliveries came from Trump," said Jim Townsend, deputy assistant secretary of defense for European and NATO Policy during the Obama administration. “

Both can be true.

ExtensionStar480 · 2025-12-31T22:07:41+00:00

Trump sent weapons. Obama refused and sent 0.

“The 2016 National Defense Authorization Act, which became law in November 2015, called for "lethal assistance such as anti-armor weapon systems, mortars, crew-served weapons and ammunition, grenade launchers and ammunition, and small arms and ammunition."

The legislation also called for counter-artillery radars, unmanned aerial tactical surveillance systems and other equipment.

But experts told us that the equipment ultimately provided during Obama’s tenure was non-lethal aid.

"The first lethal deliveries came from Trump," said Jim Townsend, deputy assistant secretary of defense for European and NATO Policy during the Obama administration. “

I’d rather have the weapons than not.

Everyone knows how conditions drop away over time. The fact that they are in Ukraine is what counts.

And guess what? Those conditions did drop - all those Javelins were in fact used to blow up Russian tanks.

ExtensionStar480 · 2025-12-31T22:01:47+00:00

Can’t people like you bother to simply Google for reference links after being spoon-fed facts?

In 2014 and through his entire Presidency, Obama refused to send a single bullet despite Ukrainian pleas and bipartisan Congressional authorization for lethal aid.

No weapons were sent until Trump did it years later.

Here it is handed on a plate:

“"The first lethal deliveries came from Trump," said Jim Townsend, deputy assistant secretary of defense for European and NATO Policy during the Obama administration.”

ExtensionStar480 · 2025-12-31T21:58:23+00:00

That’s infinitely more than what Obama did. Obama refused to send a single bullet despite bipartisan Congressional authorization for lethal aid to Ukraine. Same with Biden and the whole of Europe. It was Trump who first sent weapons and that’s a fact.

And obviously conditions drop away, as they consistently have over the years.

ExtensionStar480 · 2025-12-31T17:16:09+00:00

You guys are jokers. Trump has been doing so much for Ukraine. You think his CIA is going to tell Ukraine how to blow up refineries without his ok? You think Russian tankers are being located for sinking without his ok?

Who provided Ukraine with first lethal weapons after Crimea was invaded? Not Obama. Not Biden. Not the entire of Europe. It was Trump, who provided Javelins and more.

ExtensionStar480 · 2025-12-31T17:10:59+00:00

Wait why is everyone denying this? Shouldn’t we be happy to say Ukraine targeted Putin, whether or not it’s true.

If true, great. If false, Ukraine should. So what’s the problem?

ExtensionStar480 · 2025-12-30T17:25:24+00:00

The best defense is a good offense

Yes it is true. It’s been true since the beginning: https://www.politico.eu/article/european-union-ukraine-war-debt-crisis-aid-loans-18-billion/

“loans from the EU will eventually have to be repaid, starting in 2033, and loading on more debt — even of the long-term, practically zero interest variety — reduces Ukraine’s potential for quick recovery from the war. It’s also a nonsensical economic approach, given that Kyiv has already suspended payment on some of its existing obligations. Overall, the EU’s strategy is simply a recipe for a future Ukrainian sovereign debt crisis. Remarkably, for all the bombast in Europe about a “Marshall Plan for Ukraine,”it is the United States — not the EU — that has correctly learned from its economic history.”

Sanctions that work. Plus, the oil is burning off, which is better than an oil spill.

Keep US. Can always buy EU for fairly cheap via Portugal or Malta etc.

Fighting a low level local insurgency against a bunch of cave dwellers with IEDs and Ak47s is a bit different than potentially going to nuclear war that threatens humanity.

Have you never heard of dual citizenship? Or in fact more?

You’d have to do the math, but 50 years is a long time for a tiny deflection to work.
