Afghanikraine? HELL, No

The Deep State--Pentagon, CIA, State--are all in favor of another war, this time in Ukraine.  They're joined by the defense-contracting industry, of course.  

But they have a problem:  the American public.

...Just short of one-third, 31.1 percent, said the U.S. should “provide supplies and military weapons,” followed by 30.5 percent who said to “provide only diplomatic area pressure.” Combined, that shows that most Americans prefer actions that do not directly involve U.S. military action.

Less than a quarter, 23.3 percent, said the U.S. should “provide U.S. military advisors,” while just 15.3 percent said the U.S. should “provide U.S. troops as boots on the ground” in such an event.

Across the board, Americans do not want boots on the ground, as that option only saw the support of 12.6 percent of Democrats, 16.4 percent of Republicans, and 18.1 percent of independents....

What Bai-Den may or may not say is irrelevant, of course.  He's just there for show.

But Congress, which 'on paper' has something to do with a declaration of war, is WELL-aware of the problem another Afghanistan (or VietNam, or Iraq) will be with their voters.

NOTHING is preventing Liz Cheney from flying over there and shooting a few Russkies.  She can ask Daddy Warbucks Dick about how to shoot people, too!
