1. Supporting the Ukrainians is important
2. Seeing Putin bleed his armed forces is a good thing
3. However, we shouldn't have the Ukrainians a blank check
4. We also shouldn't deplete our ammo reserves because the bigger threat is China.

Is this clear enough? Another poster here seems to not be able to process the above.

No, direct and clear this time. Very different from your Russian body count statement.

3. We don't give Ukrainians a bank check, we have an alliance to deal with though.
2. Fist time I've read this, agree, but I would like movement, not just bleeding.
4. Then we shouldn't hold up the money to assist gearing up on the ammo.
1. Agreed.

The Philippines just got SPYDER missiles from Israel, and they have Brahmos and are acquiring more and some HIMAR on the horizon.
I don't have any word on if they will allow us to set up an advanced radar system on Palowan.

We need to keep up FON OPS but ubless conditions change, not much we can do.

I'm hoping the the stealth drone subs are better than they let us know. We're moving away from littoral craft. No sign that China is hardening her ports in the string of pearls

Couple this with foreign policy reading.
