These weapons are not going to change the direction of the war even as the US state department openly admits. What they will do is make the war last longer and ensure more people die. Hope that clears things up for you.

Giving more weapons and negotiating an end to the war are not mutually exclusive. Biden is Giving Ukraine their best hand possible before the US is likely to duck out.

Once again, since you appear to have trouble grappling with this concept. More weapons are not going to change the terms because the winner of the war will be dictating them. Either NATO goes and fights Russia directly, which is highly unlikely, or Russia will dictate terms to Ukraine. All these weapons are achieving is to ensure more Ukrainians die in a pointless war, which seems to give a hard on to people like you.
