Taking US manufacturing of Military Industrial Complex to a whole new level ... getting rid of old war stock across the plains of the Ukraine and kicking up some dust. Digging mass graves as collateral damage ... just writing a new chapter in the history books.
"The President has explicitly articulated certain limitations to the support he is willing to extend. Among these, he has restricted the provision of long-range missiles, specifically the ATACMS, which boast a range of 300 kilometers. His rationale stems from a delicate balance between two key objectives: one, to lend necessary assistance to Ukraine in its defense; the other, to circumvent a trajectory that could potentially plunge us into the cataclysm of a third world war," the speaker elucidated at the distinguished Aspen Security Forum.
Hey lookie here what I found ... 😳
In an unexpected turn of events, the administration's decision to deploy weapons may be facilitated by a newfound surplus. According to two officials who spoke to ABC News, an audit revealed that the U.S. had underestimated the quantity of ATACMS in its arsenal, thereby increasing its firepower significantly.
The operational status of the recently unearthed arsenal remains indeterminate, as does the precise variant of missiles it encompasses. The ATACMS, it should be noted, exist in multiple configurations, ranging from projectiles armed with substantial high-explosive warheads to anti-personnel cluster-munition versions designed to dispense hundreds of bomblets over designated targets.
With the provision of a significantly extended striking range for Ukrainian forces against Russian positions, the ATACMS not only hampers the Russian counter-fire capabilities but also potentially enhances Ukraine's ability to hit targets within the contentious region of Crimea.
WP: US intelligence says Ukraine will fail to meet offensive's key goal
According to The Washington Post, there is growing backing in Washington for providing rocket-launched cluster munitions, for example, which could strike deeper than the artillery-fired versions the United States began supplying last month.
In addition, the United States is also working hard to plan a Ukrainian "force of the future" that could deter continued Russian aggression.
The aggression of the malicious expansion of NATO to the borders of the Russian Federation needs not to be questioned ... the evidence has become quite clear. Propaganda and decades of building the war narrative.

EU Responds Harshly to Question about Relevance of Depleted Uranium Shells for Ukraine
At the European Commission's daily briefing, journalists asked for comment on Washington's decision to provide Ukraine with depleted uranium shells.
Peter Stano, Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, stated that Ukraine is defending itself against Russia's armed aggression and is fighting for its survival.
"I would not be worried about what the allies of Ukraine are supplying to Ukraine in order to help it to defend itself.
I would be worried about a nuclear gamble Putin is playing. First, with the civilian nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia, by occupying it with military, by stationing weapons and soldiers there.
I would be worried about using food as a weapon, as Putin does nowadays bombarding port infrastructure at rivers in Ukraine in order to aggravate the global food crisis and push prices up so that he can enrich himself," Stano said.

BOTH SIDES WILLING TO FURTHER ESCALATE -- NO END IN SIGHT
In March, when Britain said it would supply the [DU munition] shells, the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, warned that Moscow would "respond accordingly" given that the west was starting to use weapons with what he called a "nuclear component".
Putin followed up several days later by saying Russia would respond by stationing tactical nuclear weapons in neighbouring Belarus. Putin and the Belarusian president said in July that Russia had already shipped some of the weapons.
