This is a case of a huge nuclear armed country trying to grind a independent democratic country into the forced annexation by slaughtering civilians.

These are war crimes for which Putin should have a Nuremberg trial and hanging.

Ukraine elected this govt with 70% of the vote in a multi-party election.

70% of Russians OPPOSE this war of conquest.

The west now is being ruled by fanatics, who are not known for having brain.

The Eastwards expansion of Nato was pushed by Military-Industrial complex (MIC).

There is no thought, logic or regard for consquences, only profit. Each time a country joins Nato, there is a massive market in military equipment. This is Corporate America, owned by the corporations.

Tell us total $$$ value of all US weapon sales to new NATO members over past 20 years
If you want to make accusation provide the facts. Just do not pull facts out of your r**r

You do the maths. Last time I checked, they don't hand over F-16 and Abrahms tanks for free.

I wouldn't be surprised. They are that scared. Even willing to help supply weapons and other equipment to Ukraine with no hesitation.

The Poles have always been very strong US partners.

In fact, if there is anyone as loyal to you guys as the Brits in Europe, it is Poland.
Germany is under your complete political control & is not a normal country yet (similar to Japan), but they are sprouting their own political wings now. France has always had its own voice.
Italy and Spain are unaffected by this crisis. Turkey is now far more independent politically speaking.

If anything, you should consider Poland a Tier-1 NATO ally like UK.

even if you add them all it is a drop in the bucket compared to Pentagon's orders ?
The US military operates 1200+ F-16s and 150 F-35s. They plan to induct 1500 F-35s
