Never to worry.This mumbling, stumbling President is a clear and present danger to world peace: The security of Europe is on a knife-edge, the credibility of the United States is on the line... and America's allies are looking for a cool head
At his first press conference since November - an event that was meant to be a reset for his presidency - Biden gave Vladimir Putin the green light to attack Ukraine. That's what I heard when I watched his mumbling, stumbling performance on Wednesday afternoon. It's what millions of Americans heard - and it's what Vladimir Putin was waiting to hear.
Mitch McConnell, as senator for Kentucky since 1985, voted for the invasion of the sovereign nation of Iraq:Uhhhhh .... didn't we invade and blow the crap out of and occupy SEVERAL sovereign countries since WW2 ?
ain't the the pot calling the kettle black........
“They’re testing us to see whether we will do anything of consequence to keep them from gobbling up part of another sovereign country,” McConnell said. “That hasn’t happened since World War II. I don’t think Vladimir Putin understands sovereignty."

Russia itself annexed the Crimean peninsula of Ukraine in 2014.
Another example is that China invaded and occupied Tibet in 1951 (which was after the Second World War). Tibet remains Chinese territory to this day. Military aggression was outlawed by the UN in 1946, but that does not seem to have stopped invasions.
All over the media we suddenly have a new and deeply beloved ally, the Ukraine, buuut Russia is bad, they've always been the bad guys...Remember the Steel dossier?...Oh wait, thats been debunked, well forget that. Russia is BAD anyway damn them all!...
...
Let's go (to war) Brandon!...

Biden orders 8,500 US troops to prepare to DEPLOY to Eastern Europe to fend off Russia: President could send up to 50,000 soldiers to NATO allies over Ukraine invasion fears
The Biden administration is ordering 8,500 U.S.-based troops to stand ready to deploy to Eastern Europe, the Pentagon announced on Monday. 'This is really about getting folks ready to go,' Defense Department spokesman John Kirby said during a press conference this afternoon. He said the majority of those troops would be ground forces. He said they would stand ready in case NATO activates the NATO Response Force or a 'deteriorating security environment.' 'There’s not a mission per se, this is about [Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin] wanting to get ahead of the potential activation and making sure these units have time to prepare,' Kirby told reporters. Kirby said the move was 'sending a strong message that we're committed to NATO and we're committed to ensuring that our allies have the capabilities they need in case they need to defend themselves.'

Biden is going to bring ruin to the US by confronting Russia and China at the same time, wtf...
On two fronts: America sends aircraft carriers and assault ships to the disputed South China Sea while Chinese planes - including an anti-submarine Y-8 - continue to lurk in Taiwan's airspace
Two US aircraft carrier groups have entered the disputed South China Sea as Chinese Air Force planes continue to fly near Taiwan, which China also claims. The US Navy says two carrier strike groups, led by the USS Carl Vinson and USS Abraham Lincoln, began operations in the South China Sea on Saturday (left). The aircraft carriers were pictured on the Philippine Sea, which lays east of Taiwan and west of the US territories of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. They were joined by two US amphibious assault ships and a Japanese helicopter destroyer. On Monday, the Taiwanese Defense Ministry said 13 Chinese planes flew into the country's Air Defense Identification Zone (top right). Taiwan had reported 39 planes from the Chinese Air Force in the protected air space on Sunday. The South China Sea and self-governing Taiwan are two of China's most sensitive territorial issues and both are frequent areas of tension between the United States and China. Some security have raised concern that China, led by President Xi Jinping (bottom right), will try to push its claims on Taiwan as the US deals with Russia's possible invasion of Ukraine. The US's show of force in the South China Sea comes as the Biden administration orders 8,500 US-based troops to stand ready to deploy to Eastern Europe as fears mount that Russian President Vladimir Putin may try to invade Ukraine soon.

Germany did that September 1 1939 to Poland
Anyone ever read the The Guns of August ? Classic. WW1 started because of a big clusterfuck of treaties, obligations, dependencies. Nobody wanted it and nobody expected it to last but it did. I don't think we're headed for WW3 but there are some chilling parallels.
