PoopyPants Taking Us to War

The Commander-in-Chief 's brain is Swiss Cheese, but never mind that! 

Let's have a WAR!!

That's the conclusion drawn by a Lefty, Michael Brenner, whose brief bio is this:   

...professor of international affairs emeritus at the University of Pittsburgh, a fellow at the Center for Transatlantic Relations at SAIS Johns Hopkins; he’s written a number of important studies, books, academic articles; he’s taught at every place from Stanford to Harvard to MIT...

"...So we have to understand that the Donbass is not just Russian-speaking but a highly concentrated Russian region of Eastern Ukraine, which tried to separate itself after the Maidan coup—and by the way, Russian speakers in the country as a whole represent 40% of the population. Russians, quite apart from intermarriage and cultural fusion, are not some small, marginal minority in Ukraine.

I believe there is growing and now totally persuasive evidence that when the Biden people came to office, they made a decision to create a crisis over Donbass to provoke a Russian military reaction, and to use that as the basis for consolidating the West, unifying the West, in a program whose centerpiece was massive economic sanctions, with the aim of tanking the Russian economy and possibly and hopefully leading to a rebellion by the oligarchs that would topple Putin.

Now, no person who really knows Russia believes that it was ever at all plausible. But this was an idea which was very prominent in foreign policy circles in Washington, and certainly the Biden administration, and people like Blinken and Sullivan and Nuland believe in it. And so they set about strengthening even further the Ukrainian army, something we’ve been doing for eight years...."

I cannot understand why Fitzgerald and Johnson think positively about this exceedingly dangerous venture.

How's your supply of iodine pills?
