Give money, not stuff.

Far from an expert. Far as Ukraine what they need are WEAPONS. I heard there is a proposal to send them some mothballed warthogs those ugly looking planes that are slow but tough as nails and built around a Gatling gun that fires 6,000 50 cal bullets a second.
Money? If, we send money the cities are surrounded there is nothing to buy. They need goods. Will they get in? The Russians are not stupid. There is talk of to appease some of the world, the Russians will let humanitarian aid in. Reality as in previous wars, much of it will be stolen and not get to the Ukrainians.
What will happen. What to do? HOPE for peace? We've seen on TV how much destruction has been done in Ukraine. The cuban missal crisis. Few of us know much about it. Kennedy got credit for standing up to Kruchove. The real story is far more complex. A russian spy, prevented WWIII. Who told Eisenhower his EDUCATED OPINION of how it could be ended WITHOUT NUCLEAR WAR. Eisenhower a republican who wanted to install nixon as his successor. Helped Kennedy a democrat to make the right choice to avoid war and all could save face.
i DO NOT SEE ANYWAY THIS CAN AND WILL END WELL. I HOPE SOMEONE PERHAPS A RUSSIAN CAN SEE A WAY OUT OF THIS?
