The Democrat party sycophant media makes objective opinion
difficult to get out to the public. They saturate the nation with corporate
sales promotion news items such as serve the concentration of wealth best. They
rely on the banking monopoly of the Federal Reserve (a private bank) to send
trillions and trillions to the richest Americans and banking confreres and
trickle down a pittance to the poor that don't even see blood pressure medicine
from Obamacare or Medicare. That isn't a good supporting infrastructure fort
democracy at all and sideways policies like avoidance of defending the borders
adequately or getting on like gangbusters with Russian and President Putin are
supplanted with better daily hate memos and soap operas of O.J. trials or the
Chauvin trial with Rep Waters encouraging riots if the verdict doesn't go her
way.
The nation has a problem that began with Bill Clinton in
failing to understand post-Cold War Russia adequately to have common sense
about the Ukraine problem. At least half of the Ukraine was always Russian
necessarily since Russia began there a thousand years ago. Russians would never
be content to give it up, and President Bill should have known that and not
levered it away from the nascent new Russian state via the C.I.S. or community
of embarrassing name sissies that were weak without a live nuclear threat to the
west and armies ready to roll in national defense. It was really no way to
treat a sort of former ally that helped defeat not only Hitler and the Nazis,
but the Mongols to- at least dulling their advance, as they did with the Muslim
surge following the rise of the Turkish empire- as well as Napoleon. If not for
Russia Europe and the U.S.A. might be speaking Turk-French-Mongol-German, and
that would be very bad for the prospects of Doge coin.
Because the ethics of the U.S.A. have merged with those of
predatory capitalism from Wall Street seeking after immediate satisfaction and
short-term profits (not good neighborliness at all) the concept of levering away
some land that has always been an integral part of Russia-even when Europe was
still in the dark ages and the U.S.A. wasn't even conceived, is unavoidable.
Yet statecraft requires intelligence and ethics different from that of capitalists
and President Biden should know that.
He has decided not to send the navy to crash into the Black
Sea to interdict Russian naval support for an effort by President Putin to
restore some Russian presence right to the Dnepr River where a border might
reasonably be maintained amicably more or less satisfying most except western
land grab speculators. President Biden should recognize the strategic interest
the U.S.A. has in being partners rather than adversaries with Russia economically,
politically and socially- as well as in joint space missions. The opportunity
cost of not being best political buds with Russia is a great strategic blunder
that unites most of the world against the U.S.A., who cannot really rely on
Europeans for much in the long run for numerous reasons. They are rather
piratical first and pursue their self-interest with as much propaganda effort
as N.P.R.
President Putin may seem to have much political power in his
own nation- yet the Russian constitution is written to provide for a Super-Presidency.
The Roman Republic appointed a dictator in times of war and then returned to
normality when the crisis was over. Russia has been attacked from all sides for
a thousand years and invaded numerous times. During the post-Cold war
reorganization what else should have been expected if the United States chose
to resume an adversarial relationship because they believed they could bully a
weak Russia?
It is amazing to me that national leadership except for
President Reagan could be so blind about long-run strategic American interests.
They seem like a lot of losers that prefer war to prosperity unless they
exclusively possess all wealth. Without good Russian-American relations the world politically is unbalanced and divided. It may be readily exploited by special interests that can thwart globally important ecological and economic requisites for reform. Even racism can be stirred up and exploited as a diversion politically, and that simply lets the concept of reform rot.
