  1. Abrams, not Abraham's lol

  2. USA/NATO Ukraine are desperate;from failed tanks, then cluster ammo, then f16..now depleted uranium. USA has run out of options ..Russia is ready..URAAA.

  3. It would be better to send ATACAMS and other long range missiles. That will end that war… But, instead, we are spending money in between on unnecessary munition.

  4. Russia: “It’s a criminal act to do so.”

    Yet y’all dumb MFs bombed hospitals, killing innocent civilians and threw white phosphorus lmao glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦

  5. armas de genocidas? y el cambio climático?

  6. The lines haven’t moved at all. Fake news is a joke.

  7. As an American, I don't support Ukraine. Nuke them Putin!

  8. Ukraine should know that american soldiers in middle east were getting cancer from exposure in using uranium shells.
    America government to military cartel industrial complex are biggest weapons runners to polluting with denating of atomic bombs more than any other country to uranium shells. They have exposed their own military and by vaccinations.

  9. No it is not bad for the health go and look it up. Depleted uranium weapons are not considered nuclear weapons, and no specific treaty bans their use.

    The US will supply 120mm depleted uranium tank rounds to use with the M1 Abrams tanks that it is due to deliver to Ukraine later this year.

    The UK has already supplied depleted uranium shells to Ukraine's armed forces, to use with the Challenger 2 tanks that it has sent.

    The MoD said the shells would enable Ukrainian tank crews to fire on enemy targets from greater distances, reducing their exposure to counter-fire.

    Russia has condemned the US and the UK for sending depleted uranium weapons to Ukraine. President Vladimir Putin said they contained a "nuclear component", and that he would be "forced to react" to their use.

    The MoD has said that under Article 36 of the First Protocol of 1977 Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 1949, depleted uranium shells are "capable of being used lawfully in international armed conflict".

    The UN General Assembly ordered a review into the health effects of depleted uranium weapons in 2007, and international bodies have since carried out several further reviews.

    In 2016 the UN's Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) found no significant poisoning was caused by exposure to depleted uranium.

  10. Yeh seeing the effect these had on innocent Syrian civilians wasn't enough huh, this should be condemned to the highest level. When the uk sent them to Ukraine Russia destroyed the cache in an instant. I know all you brainwashed media simps out there are basic but I'm very impressed how reserved Russia have been through all this western bs being thrown at them….funny how they call putin mad vlad and worry he might nuke someone….I'm surprised how much restraint he has, because even the usa are pissing me off with this blatant corrupt bs proxy was agenda, Blackrock sniffing around the Ukraine buying up land, getting building contracts ready……the American government are a disease, and the quicker the power shifts from west to east the better.

  11. Why does the US have depleted uranium shells???

  12. Way to go biden-obama way to Start a nuclear war first give all the foreign countries what they then send uranium shells. This administration is more worried about foreign countries than his own. He pushes transgender on to kids, this man attacks our kids with twisted values and gives all our money to foreign countties. Biden-obama is the biggest threat to America

  13. So happy we all get to be taxed to death to fund this massive money laundering scheme

  14. Suddenly, all the war crimes talk stops.

  15. Depleted uranium shells are DIRTY BOMBS. And Iraqis are still suffering from radiation poisoning due to this FILTH. Beth defects, tumors, nfertility, etc.

    JOE BIDEN OBVIOUSLY WANTS THIS CONFLICT TO ESCALATE AND, SO FAR, HAS NO BEEN PROVING PUTIN TO BE CORRECT N SUSPECTNG NATO OF PRVOKING HI M. WHICH, THEY HAVE BEEN.

  16. Depleted Uranium shell, another Game changer!!!!. Abhram Tanks Another Game changer !!!!. Then Long Range Drones. Another Game changer!!!!.. When Russians use SAMRAT…that is not a GAME CHANGER its Armageddon !!!…no changing the clock back.

  17. There is no ukraine anymore. american jews are getting what they want.

  18. What about the US aid package for the homeless in America

  19. I wish they can spend just a fraction of what they give to that Nazi president (yes he is, look up the Azovs) to us for a little aide in healthcare.

  20. Russia can stop uranium supply to the USA, so USA has to think more about it.

  21. US is going to help Ukraine another 1 billion. Meanwhile Maui residents only get $700 per house.

  22. Time for HEMP. Americans want the HEMP. Joe Biden wants you to have HEMP.

  23. The Biden administration is a coup. This was all planned long ago and Trump was ruining it for these enemies to humanity

  24. U.S. bombed most countries on Earth

  25. war mongers. THEY LOVE THE DAY TO DAY DEATH SHOW. KILL KILL KILL. NO PEACE. KILL KILL KILL!
