Meanwhile (for contrast) British translator/blogger William Hackett-Jones interviews italian piano player Giovanna Rappa.

Barbos lives in USA. He's not the Russian version. He’s the American version of a Trump MAGA supporter. His perspective is 100% American. Which, of course, is why he doesn't know anything from the ground in Ukraine

I work with a Ukrainian woman. She's got some horrific news. In her home town social cohesion is desintegrating. Civilians keep getting randomly kidnapped, tortured and raped for no reason (that makes sense). Violent crime is rampant and unchecked. Its a problem. Its worse on the Russian occupied side. But it's happening all over Ukraine.
Its all sides who do it. And it's not two sides. There's a myriad of social units, more or less official, or well defined, who are struggling for survival.
This is based on reports from her family, who still live in Ukraine

I am confused. Are you saying that not only I live in US but also an american?
Thanks. I did not know I could fool anyone with my English, but I apparently I can, at least swedish.
Reminded me my "roommate" I was once forced to live with in US. Irish-imerican idiot/asshole with a mother who drove a Range-rower from ..... Great Britain (right side steering wheel), and he apparently was not able to identify my accent at the time and assumed that I was american, with some weird accent I presume. He was stealing my and landlord's stuff and my landlord kicked him out eventually. But he was an idiot.

How does she know that? Yes, Kiev Regime controlled parts experiences kidnapping (forced conscription). Russia does not have forced conscription, hence no kidnappings.
Someone is lying there.

Given the access he seems to have with global Internet it does seem he may not be in Russia worth its control of the net.
Obviously not a good English speaker.
Brighton Beach NYC?
He is eitheran idiot filled with Internet conspiracy theories, or he is an excrescenced propagandistt.
For all we know he may be Chinese or North Korean.

It's a country not a territory.
But yes and for what it's worth now, the rules of engagement should be lifted. I've said a few times, Biden's timidity prolonged this war unnecessarily. Now without US weapons, even with an expanded ROE, can/will what's left of a fair and just world give what Ukraine needs to turn back Russian aggression? Is there enough US stockpiles in Poland or other EU countries given before Trump to bridge a gap to a "coalition of the willing" as Starmer put it? I hate that. It's such a wet noodle phrase.
Foolishly, I cling to hope, again.

As if Nazi regime in Kiev followed any rules.

That stockpile is under US government control and it will stay in Poland for as long as Trump wants.

Meanwhile Israel foreign ministry said they were no aware of Ukraine's heroization of Stepan Bandera but promised to look into it
This is pretty amusing considering that Israel's ambassador to Kiev has said that he is not happy with this Bandera business and added that he understands the problem of finding of heroes in Ukraine who are not jew murdering nazis.

ISW has a good write up today. Whether these stockpiles are in Poland, Germany, Ukraine, or elsewhere, it looks like Ukraine is stocked through mid-year. It says nothing about these weapons still being controlled by the US/Trump. I'm sure Biden would have considered this and the transfer is complete without such conditions.
Since you're not going to read (and if you did, not believe) ISW, I'll say it also states the European nations will increase their permitted debt limit by allowing a 1.5% increase in GDP for military spending to support Ukraine.
It also goes into Ukraine's expanded defense production which I'm sure doesn't comport with your version of reality either.

Bunch of neocon liars and scumbags. And they don't know anything anyway.
LOL. And you conclude they are controlled by Kiev regime?
Nope, you can't stockpile everything. They have already been pretty much out air defense.

EU has no meaningful weapons to give. If Trump decides to cut everything then it's game over in very short order.
US has monopoly on most of the intelligence data and Starlink.
And it was reported that Pentagon stopped sharing intelligence with nazis.
