1. Then why don't they use this wealth of drones and cruise missiles to attack Ukrainian assets?
2. Not a valid argument. The U.S. has had several carrier battlegroups in the Persian Gulf which is much smaller.
Anyway, I hope you understand that it was not a serious suggestion. It was just to exemplify a wish for the U.S. to stand up for the freedom in the world, that it speak so warmly of.
On a side note, how do you guys think this would have played out under the Bush Jr. administration?
