In this video, I talk with @John-Doull about the recent announcement by General Jim Mattis and the Trump administration regarding the continued support of the Ukrainian military, mainly in Crimea as more weapons are sent to be used against Russia.
After attending a Ukrainian military parade, General Mattis met with Poroshenko and then took part in a press conference where he claimed the US has sent 175 million dollars worth of weapons and equipment to Ukraine to fight against Russian aggression in Crimea just in the last week, adding up to a total of $750 million in the past several years.
Mattis is considering sending more arms and one has to come to grips with the fact that this is an act of war against Russia.
Under the Obama administration, countless weapons were sent not just to the Ukrainian military but spread among "rebels" also known as literal nazis under the Svoboda Party.
While the left in the United States calls everyone they disagree with a nazi, these guys are actually nazis and the left is overwhelmingly in support of this aggression against their new enemy, Russia.
If you were Russia and you saw this, what would you do? What would Americans do if Russia armed Canada against the US? Think about it.
While the media claims Trump is Putin's puppet, his administration (which the generals clearly control as the growth of the military industrial complex becomes greater) continues dangerous acts of aggression against Russia.
Just in January, John McCain and Lindsay Graham travelled to the Ukraine, met with the nazis and Poroshenko as well. They both publicly pledged that they will do anything they can including sending arms to help Ukraine in their fight. They said, "2017 will be the year of offense against Russia."
Last December, Obama expelled 35 Russian diplomats from the US. Under Trump, countless new sanctions have been put on Russia, the most recent just a week ago. China has threatened the US for these sanctions and because of them, Russia has just expelled 755 US diplomats from Russia.
How could we so irresponsibly and willingly walk into this dragon's den? This incredibly unstable environment? Our lives are at risk.
We will continue to cover this story as it no doubt unfolds.
My money goes towards bullets, my taxes goes towards other people's bullets.

This nothing more than EU NATO backed fascists trying to take control of a large piece of the country that has now been shown to be rich in natural resources like coal and natural gas - Russia will handle this very well as President Putin is a very good chess player when it comes to foreign policies - especially in his own back yard

Russia and Europe should be friends. The USA doesn't want this because it would logically eventually lead to some kind of security alliance. Am absolute nightmare scenaruo for US Geopolitical strategy. Europe is to serve as a Military Hub and as a buffer between the US and Russia and of necessary as manpower for a US led war. This type of politics will last another 100 years but it will eventually have to end. The World doesn't stand still.

truth: there are no Ukrainian military in Crimea
Promises to give a weapon to Ukraine are only promises. In reality, Ukraine instead of weapon got only US instructors and military food
Even if Ukraine would get any weapon, there are no people who would fight with Russia in Crimea. They cannot win 3 years civil war on East of Ukraine against poor armed civil people. What would they do in Crimea with the REGULAR Russian ARMY? ;)
my personal question is how me, as a taxpayer, can stop spending MY MONEY for WAR IN MY HOMELAND?

750 million dollars in weapons and equipment have been sent. That's official. But I agree, there should be no war.

It is a pity, but there are a lot of reasons of this situation. And Crimea is not the main reason.
USA military-machine makes wars providing another money-printing mechanism. Just surviving of one nation, that puts itself higher than other people on the Earth.
