A Dec. 14 report in Sputnik cites Rebekah Koffler, a former U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) officer, who warns that the U.S. is depleting its own defensive arsenal by fighting an “unwinnable” proxy war with Russia in Ukraine. Koffler is a Russian-born DIA agent, who is no supporter of Vladimir Putin, but rather the author of the book Putin’s Playbook: Russia’s Secret Plan To Defeat America. She is also an “item” on Fox News.
Citing U.S. media reports that there was an alleged $19 billion backlog of weapons earmarked for Taiwan, Koffler pointed out that Washington was jeopardizing its own long-term plans to arm the Taipei government. Since the beginning of the delivery of weapons to Ukraine, the U.S. has used up 13 years’ of Stinger production in a matter of 10 months, along with five years’ Javelin production, according to Raytheon’s chief executive.
