Max Boot: It’s Great that the Ukrainians Are Dying for Us for a ‘Relatively Small Investment’
EXCERPT:
BOOT: “For a relatively small investment — yes, we’re spending tens of billions on Ukraine, but all that amounts to roughly one half of 1% of the defense spending. And so for a very small investment, very tiny portion of defense spending in particular, we are helping the free people of Ukraine to resist aggression, this evil aggressor that has invaded their country, and in the process we’re helping them to devastate the Russian war machine. They are inflicting the kind of losses that Russia has not seen since World War II, and that is degrading dramatically one of the most anti-American, one of the most threatening countries in the world that we ourselves face. And so, Ukrainians are fighting our battle for us and we don’t have to risk a single American soldier. It is a tremendous investment and it would be the height of folly to cut them off."
