Ok, if you and your father like meat, and your mother and two sisters don't like me, you can say your family doesn't like meat - and you'll be RIGHT!!
What a great genius you are, my boy!

US government doesn't work that way ogbeni

US government doesn't work that way ogbeni

You didn't say US government, genius. You said US.
Just like I didn't say your family's management, I said your family!
Even "US government doesn't want the war to end" is still wrong!

Didn't I tell you before that when I said the US, I meant the government?

In that case it's a bit better but still wrong. Different if there were near unanimity, but congress is about evenly divided about funding the war!

Okay. So what's their stand now on the war? Have they stopped funding Ukraine? That's what I'm interested in.

Lol, back to square one! YES, US is funding the war. Say so and stop! Don't go beyond that to state what is in the mind - what the non-existent "US" likes or wants or admires!

You sabi grammar o. Lol
If they are still funding the war, definitely they want or need the war.

You don't have to agree with my words or force your reasoning on anyone.

In the example I gave you, one can say your family buys meat, but one cannot say your family likes meat. That'd be a nonsensical statement. I'm sure now you finally, totally get it!

O boy é don do na. I'm not wrong but if you think I am, then you can keep that in your mind.

Nope. You must admit that the statement "US doesn't want the war to end" is nonsensical (see below).
US is not Russia, a one-man dictatorship!
