I heard bad review about the Javelin missiles. Like that it is clunky to use. You fire once and you can’t really carry it with you when you are withdrawing into safety. That is why so many of them were getting abandoned. I also read that the missile kinda sucks. This could all be lies intended to discredit this wunderwaffe gamechanger system but who knows?

Javelins are meh, but far from awful, that been said they demand lots of logistic to be kept in working condition.
And as always British lie, for start more than half of the weaponry west sent came without spare parts. Considering all stuff, ukr army actually did well. British army would already fall apart by now.

It kind of depends on the setting, the tactics, the style of warfare. It seems the Javelin is expensive and the Ukrs use it as something expendable.

From the looks of it, my guess is they’re trying to infuse Javelin with some sort of hit and run tactics. Javelin is not designed for such purpose. But oh well.
On the other hand, Zelensky’s situation is becoming increasingly awkward. I mean, with the talks in Saudi Arabia, US will either withdraw supports, or urge Zelensky to knock it off, or leave the whole matter to Europe and be like “that’s Europeans’ problem, not ours”. There’s a very slim chance that US will keep supporting Ukraine, if they can play the mineral resource card right and convince Trump on how they can retake the mines within timely fashion, but even such approach can only buy a few more months for Ukraine. And also, I don’t think US is that happy on those captured weapons. Either way, Zelensky will take a lot of heats after the war is over…I mean, even Europe, who’re talking about some sort of European army or whatever, they’ll abandon his ass if he really fucks up that bad.

Trump can probably convince the Russians to sell him minerals. They want dollars I Moscow, and all kinds of shit America can offer, the Russians don’t produce everything by far. Project Ukraine is not needed, it was a corruption project of the Biden family, and maybe some Europeans with Russia anxiety. I hear Zelensky is in Dubai, probably planning an escape.

You know what, this is one thing I’ve been bearing for a while now. Your attitude seems to changed all the sudden. You sounds super enthusiastic about everything Trump does. I mean, personally I loathe dealing with strong emotionalism outside of sex, but I do get it, Trump is at least making some attempts that none of the previous presidents were making. But are you certain everything is going to work out? What if it doesn’t?

I am not sure everything will work out but I am an optimist by nature. I have the attitude that it can be done. Although I get disappointed if it doesn’t pan out. Ukraine is a difficult issue, and it remains to be seen what resolution they come to.

Based on the reaction from you, and other European right-wing populists I’ve observed, on top of the reaction from Russia and even China in many cases, I think we can come to a conclusion: the world honestly doesn’t hate US. Of course, not many like it as passionately as let’s say, Taiwanese, those Hong Kongers with hate boner for Beijing, Japanese nationalists, Korean right-wingers…etc. But let’s face it, the world doesn’t hate US at all.
Honestly, if US allows Europe to trade with Russia for cheaper energy source, and EU’s uber woke, uber green policies can fuck off altogether, many of the right-wing may dismiss even the issues such as Atlanticism. Shit, I’d be like “US is just…US” if Trump can somehow make a Pacific Monroe Doctrine happens (I also hope Xi can prevent Chinese middle-class from immigrating to US – this gonna piss off an army worth of Chinese boomers, but knowing Xi, he can handle that if he really wants to. Xi needs to work on his adaptability and situational awareness, that’s the thing. But before we go too off topic) AND if Trump can finally boost up US’ economic productivity instead of just bashing and lashing out at everyone – that anger can be turned into productivity if Trump can talk some sense into the corporate America.
So who really hate US? The way I see it:
-Immigrants who lived here for a long time and felt stuck due to low on cash, and betrayed due to all the double standard treatments.
-Second generation immigrants who’re fed up with American lifestyle and most of all, the way how they’re treated, at school, at work and probably even at home. They want to move back to the motherland but also don’t always have the financial means to do so.
-The disgruntled 20-to-30 something middle-class people, who, more often than not, are born-and-raised in US for the most parts.
What US got is not a Russia problem, nor a China economic blitzkrieg problem. US doesn’t even have a Pyongyang problem. What US has, is a middle-class problem and immigrant problem.
