Biden Era Neo-cons Owe The World An Explanation What The Failed Ukraine War Was For
It is no longer easy to tell what the Ukraine War was for. Very early on, US goals got grafted onto Ukrainian goals, and the hybrid braid became hard to disentangle. “This is a war that is in many ways… bigger than Ukraine,” the State Department announced in the first weeks of the war. But, whatever those goals, few of them remain: There will be no NATO membership for Ukraine, there will be no recovery of all of its territory, and there will be no weakening of Russia.
Former US President Joe Biden, Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky have a lot of explaining to do, as do other corrupt neo-con war pigs like Anthony Blinken, Jake Sullivan and Victoria Nuland.
Zelensky will need to explain to his exhausted nation why choosing the path of war over the path of diplomacy after the Istanbul talks in March and April of 2022 was worth the cost. At that time, what still seemed to be the Ukrainian goals — continued sovereignty and the withdrawal of Russian troops to pre-war boundaries — might have been met. Zelensky must explain why he succumbed to Western pressure to pursue wider ones.
Zelensky is going to have to explain why pursuing those wider goals was worth the loss of so much life, limb and land. And, if he is to survive politically and, perhaps even physically, he is going to have to find someone else to blame.
He already fired Valery Zaluzhny, who served as Ukraine’s military commander-in-chief until last year. Now, Ukraine’s security service has arrested two generals and a colonel on the charge of failing to protect Ukrainian territory from Russian advances. But blaming the generals won’t be enough to acquit Zelensky. The war went on after Zaluzhny and continued to worsen. And no one will buy the blaming of field commanders. “We were defending a huge swath of the border, we fought to the death in the first hours of the attack,” said soldiers in one brigade after their former commander was arrested. “We were short of people, ammunition and support but we fought, we fought under the leadership of our commander!”
Zelensky will need to blame someone higher up than the field commanders. In recent weeks, he’s laid some of that blame on Biden, complaining of insufficient support. “With all due respect to the United States and the administration,” Zelensky said in a podcast interview, “I don’t want the same situation like we had with Biden.” One day, Zelensky will need to explain to Ukrainians his part in the tragedy. He will have to defend his decision to yield to the West’s pressure not to sign anything with Russia but to “just fight,” as then-British Prime Minister Boris Johnson reportedly put it.
Much like UK PM Boris Johnson, the Biden regime also repeatedly promised Ukraine whatever they needed for as long as it takes, without considering American and European voters might not feel the same way at all. Without considering not everyone would agree to such a risky and fatal commitment.
Perhaps, in the near future, We The People should be the only ones who can declare war, not our politicians or those working in government. They have proven themselves to be unreliable, unethical, undiplomatic, undemocratic and unintelligent.
