U.S. taxpayers should not be funding this war.

This is why Russia has intensified its attacks recently; they are trying to advance as much as possible before Ukraine can fully utilize the new weapons given to them, like the ATACMS, and refilling ammunition stockpiles.

Wow, so many experts on warfare, economics and Russia here.

Is west expanding the war finally instead of solving the political problem diplomatically taking into account the key issues which triggered the war

Problem is foreigners are planning war for Ukraine and getting ukranians killed .
It seems this commentator does not know that Ukraine and Russia has land borders and Russia is most there to create a land corridor between Russia and Crimea

Russians are enjoying NATO weapons very well.

Russia lost this war…..

Saturation bombing of the route to Tokmak using supplied F-16s and HIMARS to knock out mines, trenches and bunkers. Re: Operation Cobra WWII

Should have been sent 2 years ago and in larger numbers.

These weapons can play a big role in war. But there is a danger that if NATO, Ukraine cross the red lines, Russia will also cross the red line. If Ukraine destroys vital Russian infrastructure and logistics, Russia may also decide on a devastating retaliatory strike. It cannot be ruled out that, for example, if Ukraine destroys the Kerch bridge, Russia will also excavate and destroy the Kremenchuk dam or the Kaniv dam, which would also make Ukraine's situation very difficult.

One should also notice the following. "ATACMS is a long-range, guided missile that gives commanders the immediate firepower to shape the battlespace. Each ATACMS missile is packaged in a look-alike MLRS launch pod and fired from the MLRS family of launchers". All existing MLRS launchers can deploy this weapon. This is huge.

That is, the whole point of the information flow is in the hypothetical chance of Ukraine to deliver a symbolic blow to the bridge, which has already been damaged twice and restored twice?At the beginning of the month, the Russians defiantly destroyed several power facilities, having the full opportunity to destroy the entire energy system of Ukraine -that's how you think after these symbolic strikes, what is the probability of Kiev getting a lockdown?

And what about the retaliation from Russia?

Patriot,Himars,Bradleys, shadow storm missiles ….have all not changed the battle dynamics. Rather, it has led to more Ukranian,foreign, and Russian lives being lost.More weapons have only led to more territorial gains by Russia.
This failed proxy war was not necessary. It is time to call for peace before US puppets, Zelensky, and his EU counterparts sacrifice all Ukranians for US ambitions.
Gradually, this proxy will turn into a world war, leading millions of innocent lives being lost, all because the West wants to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia and then turn their attention to attack China.
Diabolical ? Pure evil ?

Russia can easily answer this by supplying more supersonic cruise missiles to Syria . Advanced enough to target deep inside Israel. Iran is already purchasing s400 air defence ,su35 fighters and zirkon hypersonic missiles
