It looks like we loaned 40% and granted 60%. It should have been more loans than grants. Authorized by Congress. In WWII we loaned to the UK which was effectively broke by the early 40s. They finally paid off loans a few years ago.
True, but I’m not going to fall for that WW2 bullshit. Russia was on the German side until Hitler’s dumbass turned on Russia and invaded them. Russia then “donated” 2 million troops, because they had to. Again, because they were being invaded. A 50/50 deal is Russia gives back the land it took from February 2022 on, but keeps Crimea. With Ukraine, they can’t join NATO. Not hard.
But but but, the destruction…
Yep, expensive lesson learned. Next time Ukraine, don’t poke the fucking bear.
Mein Kampf: The socialist/fascist bible. Says it right on the cover. Just like the kkk/antifa are democrat brown boots.
The attempts by the weak minded libs on here to attach Trump to hitler are ridiculous and sophomoric. Just what you would expect from them. When they try to falsely align Trump to Russia, all I can think of is biden and hunter selling influence to the russians, chinese and ukrainians.
If rats are falsely accusing you of doing something, odds are it is they who are doing it.
Point of order. According to the seminal "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich", Stalin knew the German's were likely to betray him so he used this "alignment" as buying time to build up his military forces for the inevitable confrontation.
In 2025 it is possible that Russia, for all its faults, represents a better partner for the US than Europe
And all the screaming banshees going RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA shouldn't stop us from considering it
Russia isn't committing cultural suicide like most of the west. Europe is going full authoritarian and canceling elections to save democracy and jailing folks for memes
If everyone is bad then chose what is best for the US. And it puts China on the defensive. Canada and a lot of Europe are bought and paid for by China - the real threat to the US
Don't necessarily disagree, just the historical revisionism to make Russians into "good guys" to make it anything other than realpolitik what that move is.
Don't also forget that Washington until a month ago was complicit in setting the path for Europe on those things. We? Can and should be the force for liberty and influence Europe in that direction. Their people want it, their elites don't. Same as here.
We? can have Europe and Russia as partners against China. They don't even have to like each other to make it happen. Ffs they still are trading natural gas ha.

Why do we always have to fund everything?
I'd have been fine giving them 30 billion, if they had spent it properly and not on Rolls Royces and jewelry for the general's wives with fake tits.
Pics?

Would be a huge help if Z knew where half the money the US gave him went.
Tell the money laundering weasel to go find it.
well they got the green light to rape pretty much everyone
So if you’re an incel like HH and co it was a pretty good deal

I'm sure Mein Kampf is readily available.

They also occupied half of Europe for the next 50 years as vassal states so.
If only Oregon had had a history department when you attended.
They did and I’m sure you’ll be happy to hear that this was was the cover sheet for the syllabus.
Europe occupied Africa, India and America for a couple hundred years too.
History is a nice guide but the variables of the past are not the same as the present.
As we learned that during
the Spanish FluCovid.I believe you used the phrase 'interests'. National interests change.
Fuck vanilla @PurpleThrobber
The point was Russia didn't altruistically sacrifice themselves in WW2.
They were an axis aligned aggressor until the Germans betrayed them.
Then afterwards they were an occupying force that did everything they could to oppress the people in those states.
There was never any "liberation" to be thankful for.
The occupied were fucked either way.
The Gulags were good post of the day.
