American and German tanks are now headed to the Ukraine, a sign that this conflict is going to escalate without question, in a very dangerous way. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins joins me now to talk about this. Farron, you know, MSNBC, CNN, they're high fiving. Oh, this is great. We're sending in more tanks. And then Zelensky we just talked about now says, well, I don't just want your tanks. I want some long range bombers basically saying, we're gonna go bomb Moscow. And Biden, oh, Jesus Christ. It's almost like he's asleep at the wheel as this thing creeps towards World War III.
We're, we're at the point now where we've got pretty much all of the NATO countries that are sending tanks to Ukraine. US and Germany were kind of the last holdouts. So now we've joined in, we're sending them heavy artillery. And the day, as you pointed out, the day after, the day after this was announced, we're gonna send planes, Zelensky came out and said, next, I will be asking for war planes. So this, this is not going away, this is getting worse.
War planes being the, he wants long range bombers.
Yeah.
Because he's gonna say, well, by God, we're gonna start a war with Moscow. We're gonna go to Moscow. Stall, you know, we're, we're gonna bomb 'em. And it's almost as if they have put Biden in a stupid room. Okay. Biden is sitting there, 80 years old in his stupid room. And all these war hawks are saying, do this, do that. He comes out and says, I'm doing everything I can to avoid World War III. That's, that was his talking point. There will not be a World War III. This thing is escalating at a, at a pace where anybody watching this who says, you just don't understand. No, I frigging understand. I've seen it before, but not on this scale.
Right.
This is scary as hell to me. I'll tell you.
It, it is. And look, everybody, look, we understand Russia was the aggressor here. Russia started this.
Of course.
Ukraine was the victim. We're not trying to downplay any of that. But the point here is that we're, we're a hair's breath away from putting boots on the ground because Ukraine has already said, hey, it's probably gonna take us several months to even learn how to use these tanks.
Oh, it's gonna take a year, Farron.
Which, which means we're gonna end up sending our guys to go over there and train them, which at that point, we have boots on the ground.
They can't drive 'em. And the, this experts say it'd be a year before they can. They can't fix 'em. They can't repair 'em. There's nothing they can do with these other than the fact to poke the bear a little bit more and then have this idiot Zelensky, who I think is, we have made him into a hero and the guy is not a hero.
Well, and, and one of the, you know, a great anti-war activist, the name escapes me at the moment, but I'm sorry, they pointed out this is exactly Vietnam.
Of course it is.
This is Vietnam, this is what we did.
Of course.
Slowly marching and then quicker marching, and then suddenly we're there and we have no idea what we're doing, why we're doing it. And, and we're heading back into that same quagmire.
You know what really, if, if people understand how this started, most people don't even understand how it started. They, I swear to God, if you ask 10 people what brought this about, they have no idea. All they know is Russia invaded Ukraine, Russia the aggressor comes into Ukraine. Look at the history. It was all about NATO.
