And now we have to replenish those arsenals… they absolutely will be replenished.

Like, if you give all the food in your cupboard to someone, no one would consider that “free”. You have to buy more food!

This argument seems so foolish I can hardly believe anyone actually thinks this way.

I'd rather the companies in my country stop selling those armaments to the US, actually. Maybe this is a good time to review your military budget and ask your government why you have it in the first place?

The same imperial government that lied to its people and provoked a land war in Europe?

The same one you’re legitimizing in fueling that conflict by implying it’s free?
