This is the most important comment I have heard this week — Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk:
“500 million Europeans are asking 300 million Americans to defend them against 140 million Russians […] Europe, if there is something we lack today, it is not economic or demographic power, but the belief that we are truly a global force.”
I think Tusk hits the bullseye here. Those 140 million Russians are already fully occupied by fighting Ukraine, and our leaders act like we are Liechtenstein.
@RoyBrander@urbanists.socialI don't know how to re-post this over to here, so I'll just repeat:
There's real "Iraq War Energy" on the front page of the Post this morning.
The attitude towards the importance of other countries;
"Zelensky doesn't hold the cards" == "The support of every other country combined is as nothing compared to the USA."
And "...not a smart strategy" was very Iraq-War editorial. Nothing about ILLEGAL or IMMORAL, just "bad strategy".
It's like calling the Mafia a "bad life strategy".
@RoyBrander @randahl Haven't you heard? Moral considerations are "woke".
