English, this website cut off my question. I have had this issue from time to time. I type out a brilliant, response inspiring message and the second half disappears? Is it the website or my wifi?

Ukies=Ukrainians
Sleepy Joe=Biden

Biden resists Ukrainian demands for long-range rocket launchers
Officials in Kyiv say the weapons could help in the fight against Russia, but the White House is worried about escalating.

It takes about a year of prep to train for operations and maintenance not to mention specific supply lines unique to those systems.

They are not asking for Migs anymore because all the Migs are already there. Reapers and Raptors are already coming online there too.

Long-range rockets can be fired into Russia.  If we supply them, we are crossing the "existential threat" line that leads to WW3.  This is not (cough) rocket science.

Russia invaded Ukraine.

Putin will not throw nukes because he is not suicidal and neither are the oligarchs.
