I am starting to hear from active duty troops that our national armory to defend the USA, is becoming depleted. How long can our Defense Department continue to deplete our stock of weaponry to defend ourselves? Maybe that is why O' Biden is asking for $33B additional support for Ukraine.

We have been seeing a shiton of weapons and troops going to eastern EU over the past 40-days. Add to that airlift, there is a new airlift focusing on Asia. Above normal planes going to South Korea. The airplanes are carrying equipment and troops. The question is, why? Are we preparing for a two front war?

We should be. I think it's inevitable we will engage with the CCP.  They have taught their population for the last 70 years their version of manifest destiny- which includes all of SE asia, Nationalist China, and the South China Sea basin.  Their non-aggression stance with Russia just increases the likelihood of such conflict- though the Russian should remember that manifest destiny includes Kamchatka and a goodly portion of the former Soviet Far East. 
The truly sad part to me is that if it comes to pass, we are mostly to blame- we funded China's growth and killed our own industrial base out of desire for cheap products.

  Amen RB.

Yes!

Didn't even have to read. Why?


Because the downfall of the US is part of the plan.

Energy !  By disabling our production of oil, electricity and distribution systems for GREEN reasons (really The REDs doing it) we are depleating our WARTIME RESERVE.  Ditto for war materials.  Same with food production & etc. 

We are breing blede until we can barely fight nationally.  Modern war is as much about logistics as it is about battles.  When a nation runs out of food, fuel and munitions, you're helpless: ask Germany.
