      Regarding the Lend Lease Act: While the Soviets did not have to repay most of the 'lease', the story with the British was very different. The lease deal with the U.S.A. required the Brits to repay the entire amount using Gold Bullion, not ordinary currency. This reduced the amount of gold the British government had in its vaults & inevitably negatively affected the value of the British Pound & their economic rating. FYI, the British finally completed its payments to the U.S.A. in the mid-1990s, which shows just how substantial their debt to the U.S.A. was. Apparently, many of the serious economic challenges suffered by the Brits during the post-war period, especially in the 1970s & 1980s were, in-part, triggered by Great Britain's need to make payments to the U.S.A. (..BTW & FWIW, some people have even suggested that the U.S.A.'s policy was, to some degree, motivated by a desire to ensure that Great Britain would no longer have the financial resources to remain a world power capable of competing with the U.S.A.'s newfound economic & military dominance in the post-war period & beyond..)

      Hi just a little correction at 14:25 the 2% on military spending USED to be a guide line. they changed that recently to be a minimum requirement. Stoltenberg is telling NATO countries to ignore the requirement to keep weapons in stock for certain capabilities, its Not so much about the "adhere to 2% spending" situation. as there is a dire need/emergency situation so to speak. it has nothing to do with the 2% spending in itself. The Netherlands for instance is keeping a patriot battery at the port of Rotterdam as its the main transport hub for the EU. they are now open to sending some off the missiles or even the battery to Ukraine. This would diminish defence capability in the Netherlands which can be dangerous as Russia consistently flies bombing planes near the North Sea. Its a choice our government now has to make and stoltenberg is pretty much telling Mark Rutte (next to him) Ukraine is a higher priority.

    Johnson already had more than half a year to simply schedule a vote, but he didn't. By splitting the bill into 4 parts now, he has more opportunities to delay the one for Ukraine.
    We can only hope that Biden refuses to sign any of the other 3 before he signs the one designated to Ukraine.

    To all the American followers as a Canadian neighbour I plead with you to email /phone/ write your rep and support the foreign aid package. Now is the time to put asside party differences and be united in your fight for freedom and against against oppression !

    The UK only finished paying back debts for loans during WW2 in 2006. When your national survival depends on foreign support, it is worth doing. That said, I think this aid should not be a loan. Slava Ukraini.

    The final stumbling block after all the back and forth, would be if the Ukraine package is voted on after the Israel package. The Israel financial deal would be passed and there would be a loss of leverage for the Ukraine one. If the Ukraine one is put to the vote first and doesn't go through, then the Democrats could decline supporting the Israel deal. It is absolutely the final twist the Republicans could pull. The first round of votes on the four packages must have Ukraine's decision before Israel's...

    Thank you, Georgijs, I will only believe it when it passes, which currently is rather unlikely. And we should not confuse loan with lend-lease. The former is to be paid back (like the UK did until 2006) while lend-lease is returning the stuff that was not obliterated after the war (that's why until today, hidden WWII airplanes or tanks are discovered). To be fair, the draft bill would allow the President to forgive loans (if I read it correctly).

    Don't get your hopes up yet.
    Splitting these bills is just a delay tactic. It's a way to lengthen the process.
    It means that each bill will have to go through the entire approval process.

    re Rep Moskowitz' "amendment", copied from Daily Kos : "Moskowitz’s second amendment proposed renaming Greene’s office in the Cannon House Office Building as the “Neville Chamberlain Room” - a reference to the British prime minister known for his appeasement policy who promised “peace for our time” after signing a non-aggression pact with Hitler in Munich in January 1938 that allowed Germany to occupy part of Czechoslovakia."
