But if WWIII starts with China invading Taiwan in 2027, wouldn't the war in Europe in 2028 be WWIV?

Trump betrayed Ukraine and NATO. General Patton rolling over in his grave.

One of these pics is an air base.
And the other is a facility.
Guess which one the Qatari pilots and mechanics are going to sleep in while they are learning to fly and maintain F-15's at Mountain Home in Idaho.
Poland getting richer and stronger.
Russia getting poorer and weaker.
With that money, Poland is buying powerful South Korean K2 Black Panther tanks.
And has a license to begin manufacturing them inside Poland in 2029.
This old, outdated, simple aircraft has paid for itself many times over in how many Ukrainian lives it has saved.
They stopped making these in 1993.
They produced 191 of them.
Still flying.
Still useful.
Assuming that every single tank left in stockpiles (2,887) can be refurbished, that's about a 3 year supply of tanks that can be sent into Ukraine.
Russia is losing more than 800 tanks a year in the war.
Incredible to think that in 3 years time, there won't be any such thing as tank stockpiles.
According to OSINT researcher's data, there are 0 tanks left in Russian stockpiles that are in DECENT shape.
Every remaining tank is in either POOR or WORSE shape.
It's going to take a lot of work and time and money to get the remaining tanks up to standard.
Russians built a shed over their T-72 tank.
Presumably for protection against FPV drones.
Then they forgot to close the back door.
As the tank drives away, Ukrainian operator flies drone through back door and onto tank.
The Russian grade:
A for effort.
F for execution.
I would love to see a graphic of how many drones each type of weapons system intercepted over Ukraine.
How many drones killed by helicopters, machine-guns, 20mm cannons, MANPADS, anti-air missiles, etc. and each one by type of weapon.
Somebody in Ukraine HQ is probably collecting this data.
It's cute how some people believe that nothing has fundamentally changed and we're still playing by the old rules.
Some Germans in 1932 probably talked like this.
I ask you, does this look like the face of a young man who would use White House insider information to make $192 million right before the announcement of China tariffs?
So young.
So innocent.
Knows how to power on laptops.
I went to Wikipedia.org to refresh my old mind's memory of the Night of the Long Knives.
So many killings.
Many of them loyal to Hitler and the Nazi Party.
Yeah, Pam Bondi and many others better watch their backs.
They may think they are loyal MAGA and therefore untouchable, but they're not.
Does this mean that ICE are the 'SA brownshirts'?

You would think that they would love Bondi for being such a perfect blonde Nazi, loyally supporting Trump, obeying Trump's orders, going after Democrats, manufacturing reasons for going after Democrats, her head and heart filled with hatred.
Apparently not.
Nazis are weird.
Observing the war in Ukraine is like observing WWII.
The war starts off with bi-planes and battleships and ends up with radar, proximity fuses, carriers, jets, and atomic bombs.
On the other hand, imagine having so many interesting prototypes available that Ukraine gets to pick and choose, like standing at a large Chinese restaurant buffet, taking some of this and some of that and hell yeah a whole lot of these crab legs.

We also traditionally just don't like Afghanistan.
But the big question remains, who does Trump like?
Even though Ukraine is holding back Russia to slow ground gains, with enormous Russian losses, for Ukrainians living near the front lines, those slow ground gains eventually get too close.

Except when it rains or is very windy.
Then they just get destroyed the old school way, with spotters and artillery.

Now this is some seriously good real time intelligence gathering and execution.
Russians video themselves with new expensive electronic warfare equipment and post it.
Ukraine geolocates.
Sends in drones and destroys the expensive equipment.
Amazing.
Does anybody believe that Putin actually stops and says to himself "Will my intended action escalate the war?"
Hell no.
Every single escalation of this war has been committed by Russia.
Stop worrying about escalating the war.
It's already escalated.
Release the Tomahawks.
It is way past the point of worrying about whether or not Russia considers some Western action to be an escalation of the conflict.
Russia does not get to dictate what is and what is not an escalation.
Providing Tomahawks to Ukraine will not escalate a war which is daily escalated by Russia.
Russia escalates the conflict on a daily basis.
Drone and aircraft flights into NATO airspace.
Cutting power to nuclear reactors in Ukraine.
Employing illegal gas attacks against Ukrainian soldiers.
Daily killing civilians, women and children.
Bombing churches.
Bombing homes.
"U. S. President Donald Trump stated that he would want to understand Ukraineโs plans for the missiles before agreeing to provide them, indicating he is cautious about escalating the conflict."

The ammo storage outside of the turret now has blow out panels helping to protect the crew.
But there is still ammo stored in the bottom of the turret for the autoloader.
Even though it's been given some additional armor, the crew is still sitting with some ammo.
