It’s important to note that this is a failure of the Pentagon to properly track their equipment than the fault of Ukraine due to corruption or something.

FriendBesto,

It is Corruption and that part IS the Ukrainian adminstration’s fault. Ukraine is still among the most corrupt countries in Europe.

No different then if someone gives you a gun, that it is your fault if you sell it or carelessly lose it and it appears getting used to shot someone else on another continent. Ukrainian Goverment does have its own sense of Agency.

You didn’t bother to read the article did you? Ukraine didn’t lose anything. They used it. The pentagon simply failed to track the delivery.

Maybe it was sold by the generals, and so the soldiers doing the actual fighting on the ground received inferior equipment, if any at all!

Oh no wait, that was Russia.

Am I doing whataboutism right?

mufasio,

The mind of a liberal is truly an amazing thing. Defending corrupt Nazis to own the tankies? Russia-bots? Putler? Incredible.

You’ve done your part today brave soldier. May you rest smugly tonight. Content in the knowledge that you don’t have to know or understand anything because the state department will feed you your talking points for tomorrow through your favorite corporate media channel.

Oh, Ansarallah is now using Stingers? Must be a coincidence.

the_q,

The complexity of our societal systems is a feature not a bug. It’s easier to hide corruption in a knot.

Aidinthel,

Google “Pentagon audit” to learn more!

Be sure to not have throwable things around you if you haven't heard about this before. Especially the amount of money that was being reported missing right before 9-11-2000, and suddenly was never brought up again.
