This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

Very risky to provide these unless they can be used effectively. Need pilots, landing platforms, fuel, and ordinance. They also may be anticipating that they will deploy under NATO in the near future.
Exactly why essentially take the risk of throwing them away or worse giving them to Russia.
 
Who owns Newsweek now? Which Billionaire?
For half a century, Newsweek was owned by the Washington Post and was a well-respected voice in American journalism. In 2010, the Post sold Newsweek to 91-year-old businessman Sidney Harman; Harman bought it for $1 and assumption of its liabilities. Ownership turned over a few more times, from Harman to Barry Diller. Diller regretted his purchase and sold Newsweek in 2014 to a group called International Business Times Media. IBTM changed its name to Newsweek Media Group. Its owners were tied to a small Christian college (Olivet University) led by a charismatic Korean pastor, David Jang. Jang also was founder of a cult called “The Community,”according to this report in Mother Jones.
 
Should be at the point of his response.

He doesn't touch on the oligarchs point AT ALL.

Here's a solution for you, Boris (and Western World):

  1. Collect up oligarchs and their families.
  2. Put them on "disposable" planes, in small groups
  3. Notify Putin they are on their way
  4. Fly them INTO the Ukrainian cities that Putin is bombarding
  5. Wish them luck

Once a few oligarchs see others AND their families getting blown to bits, it will amp up the pressure on the rest to clean up their little Putin Mess inside Russia.

Every other country should follow suit. FIND them, arrest them and send them into the battle zones. If Putin wants to ensure their safety, THAT IS FULLY ON HIM to stand his forces down.

EDIT: And start sending US and Western military to other Western havens they are hiding in. Scoop them up, fly them from a Polish airport into Kharkiv or wherever. Make SURE those planes heading in are avoiding active combat zones as best as possible. Let the Russian military and Putin figure out how to keep them alive.

Is it possible that there’s some covert operations involving militaries that aren’t Ukraine’s going on behind the scenes? There’s been some pictures floating around this past week of special ops units with heavily upgraded weaponry that could support the theory. It might just be wishful thinking on my part too.

Yes. I had been hearing before the war we had some very special people there and assume other NATO folks had sent them too. We or Ukraine just can't say as much. I am sure they are wearing Ukraine gear and have no IDs

I am skeptical of this. A Navy Seal captured in Ukraine by the Russians would really turn up the heat to the boiling point.
 
I know the Intention is often good but I'm so ****ing tired of hearing everybody compared to Hitler or the Holocaust. Putin is an asshole that deserves to eat 230grains of freedom but don't minimize Hitler by putin him on that level. You water down how horrific the holocaust was.
No one is minimizing Hitler, bro.

Quit minimizing the horrific acts Putin is now doing, and has done over the past couple decades.
 
So we are back to wimping out again.

Here Mr. Putin have Ukraine, have Finland too.

We need to stand up to him even if that risks nuclear war. I don't want to to nuked, no one does, but at what point do we say enough is enough?

We talk about this weakening Putin but that may only be for so long. He takes Ukraine and it's resources and eventually we get bored, let him have it and start trading with him again because we can't abide by high gas prices.

Then he goes for Finland and we play this whole game over again. And he wants for us to get a president that loves him like Trump or DeSantis so he can go after NATO while we flake out.

So tired of being Russia's bitch.
Pro-life. Willing to risk the death of billions. Change your meme.
 
And the United States let Europe go up in flames for about 4 years before Hawaii was bombed by Japan.

You act like this is some kind of new paradigm. Decent countries don’t go to war or arm up until forced to do so.
You have that EXACTLY wrong. If we would have gone to war when Poland was invaded in 1939, we wouldn't have had to liberate France, Pearl Harbor wouldn't have been bombed, and 20 million lives would have been saved.

Uh, I’m not wrong. You are proving my point. What is happening now is no different than past appeasement and hoping the US wouldn’t get drawn in to WWII.

You are though. Everybody gets compared to Hitler. It's dumb, let me know the next mother****er that kills off 6 million people, gases people to death, starves people to death while they dig the ditch they will inevitably die in. Putin is a asshole and deserves to Die, there have been very few as horrendous as Hitler and none since his death. Have some respect for thr people who actually went through the holocaust instead of every butt**** being "hitler".

Yup. And Stalin may have actually been worse.

The top of the chain is Mao Zedong. Some research suggests 78 million deaths.
