Interesting Video about Russia's Arms Customers having second thoughts.

This makes Putin even more desperate in my eyes. If we keep poking the bear the bear is going to strike back with whatever he can. I still say China and Russia will join together and hit us.

Russia and China are already joining hands. BUT.... something I never considered in the past but already KNEW about ... was the rampant corruption in their logistics and acquisitions programs. BOTH Russia and China have rampant corruption in how they procure military equipment and how they distribute this to their troops.

Consider how we still have NOT seen CHINA's forces in a hot war.

We 'thought' Russia was hot shit, until we realized via the Ukraine war that they didn't have shit. I can't believe that some CORRUPT military officer STOLE the money to acquire modern body armor for their front line troops ... and then replaced them with AIRSOFT COPIES!!! Most of their tanks and planes are breaking down.

Now I'm NO "Go Ukraine" propagandist. I'm just watching from the sidelines and seeing shocking breakdowns in Russia's military tech. I'm hearing that client nations of China's military tech are mad that THEIR stuff is cheaply made and breaking down.

It all makes me a little prouder of the fact that at least WE, in the USA, give pretty good equipment. Sure we have problems but they usually get sorted out. I'll take an American advanced weapons system (MLRS, CWIS, combat aircraft, armor, etc) any day over anything put out by Russia or China.

And that's NOT rah rah go USA pride. It's pure observation.

It may be really good equipment, but Idiot Joe is depleting our materiel and petroleum reserves and sending it to Ukraine. Pretty soon, we will have no equipment to hand out to our soldiers and no fuel for our vehicles.

Idiot joe is doing his best to destroy our military and nation.

Unfortunately, he isn't the only one involved in this destruction.
