It is misguided and unconscionable.”

  1. I am very surprised at the Blinken statement. Total opposite of Kissinger who was always quiet when negotiating. Perhaps they have a plan. Blinken has been a foreign policy expert for Biden for decades.

    Unless the Democrats have the votes in Congress, or perhaps a bi-partisan group passes something, the Republicans in the House might pass Israel funding without strings. Russia will be watching and will try to hold out until the election, and try to keep most of the territory it got.

    1. Please do not comment using words like "liberal" or "conservative," or "Democrats" or "Republican," unless it pertains to a parties current position on national security, one of the primary reasons in the Constitution for the existence of the federal government. Both Democrats and Republics are driven by national security because the winner wins the next election.

  2. Unless Biden can stop what is today seen as slaughter he is done? It is becoming something out of a history book, between what a democracy based on free enterprise, and z"chus ha'rabbin typically does; and eir nedchas, ch'v.

    Trump will get in the White House and the Russian navy will dominate the Black Sea again. This is a loss for the US. Russian ability to get out to the open sea is through one of the best defended straights in the world. Turkey is one of the most important NATO member. How reliable are they? Remember, the Eastern part of the Roman Empire held out at those straights until the fifteenth century and it was only the advent of gunpowder and heavy artillery that brought it down.

  3. There is no question that Putin knows how to contact to any terrorist, mafioso, or boss, in the world. He is playing us again. Like he played every president beforehand. Russians have always covertly played us as chumps. I still say Biden is going to weaken Putin and hopeful end the Israel war because it is playing into the hands of Russia and Trump is not going to be able to make up for a huge strategic lose, the Black Sea and Dardanelles. .

  4. Forget everything. See the very good interview of Netanyahu on CBS Face the Nation. He explains strategy better than anyone on American television since the seventies on Nightline with Moshe Arons. If Natanyau pulls it off, he says within weeks, not months, and Biden has so far stood with him, and the war ends before the election Biden will win. And Russia will be stopped.

  5. Netanyahu spoke English like an American and had the MIT education. Since Carter days he well argued Israel's side on American television. IF he can delver an end in weeks as he says. IF Congress gets a Ukraine bill passed.

    This is all about whether the US is going to have to keep a large naval presence in the area from now on.
