It’s funny how that topic never seems to surface when American presidents initiate wars.🤣 🤣
POTUS is clearly suffering from cognitive decline, and it’s been an ongoing issue for quite some time. It isn't his fault personally, but those in his inner circle really should have advised against a run for office. The man simply lacks the mental capacity required for the job anymore. Replacing him with a Vice President is hardly a solution—so I can only pray that Biden manages to finish his term standing upright. Those currently managing his affairs are going to have their hands full.
On another note, I didn't expect this kind of erratic behavior from Putin, even if I find his political maneuvers quite narrow-minded given the resources at his disposal; I generally consider him an intelligent man. There was logic behind his previous moves—perhaps Syria wasn't necessary, but there was a rationale there. This current dragging out of the conflict in Ukraine has lost all sense of purpose. If he intends to seize that nation, he should assemble a legitimate force and commit fully to the struggle. What we see now is indecision at its worst. The only thing more frustrating than that is the reaction from the Ukrainian citizens, acting as if none of this affects them. There are reasons for that apathy—much like why people stay home during elections in certain parts of the States—rooted in history, economics, and social fractures—but resistance to an aggressor is both possible and mandatory.
When you fail to resist, you essentially give the aggressor a green light to do whatever they please. They are feeling the consequences of that passivity regarding Crimea right now.
