Came here to post this and say "finally", but someone had already noticed. :)

There's a quote that's probably not from Churchill, but is frequently mis-attributed to him (the actual source is probably Abba Evan, an Israeli diplomat visiting Japan). The distorted quote says something that's appropriate today:

"You can always count on the Americans to do the right thing, after they have exhausted all other possibilities."

All because of a few assholes did it take this long, and it pisses me and quite a few others off to no end.

I guarantee tons of Ork-be-Gone are being loaded on planes, ships, and trains as I type this, and before Bidens signature is even finished, it will be on its way to Ukraine.

Slava Ukraini!

Personally I find it hard to have that reaction when it also includes billions in support of Israel's ongoing genocide.
