I mean, our money is funding this war instead of our own health care, so yeah, I think our people have every right to criticize if they want to.
And besides, it wasn't that long ago that people were saying these same things about Iraq and Afghanistan, and we later learned our money was grossly misused and corruption rampant.
Stories have already circulated about corruption in the Zelensky government.
Wow, stories have circulated you say? /s
Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan, which were immoral American misadventures, this is a Russian misadventure, and supporting the Ukrainians is pushing back against aggression.
I don't know why you added the sarcasm tag, because it's true.
There has been extensive reporting of corruption in Zelensky's government, which always seems to be the case when the US is involved. The only difference is this time we've swapped out Saddam Hussein and Hamid Karzai for a white gentleman who's easier to market to the masses.
Want to provide sources for those claims boss? I need to see this "extensive reporting".
