In 2022, Biden pledged to defeat Russia. But today, Russia is winning the war. Americans love winners, and hate losers. Had Biden defeated Putin, he'd now be a national hero.
Also, the problem with writing any analytical article is that Reality is highly nuanced since there are so many factors at work and since none of us has access to all the main actors (for example, obviously I can’t sit Biden down for a chat); often it’s impossible to capture every nuance, so like any analyst I have to chose and focus on certain salient points.
Yes. There’s a stark difference between military and other professionals who know the truth about Russia, and White House politicians who live in a fantasy world where Russia is weak and soon to be defeated. The U.S. govt isn’t a monolith of course.
Very true, and also before they would have ever come close to that prospects, Russia would have let go ultimate weapons that it has. Infact this kind of criminal gamble makes Biden a true pyschopath, which he is. A Russian professor (Aleksandr Buzgalin) in Ukraine who was a regular on Paul Jay's podcast, Activism news, captured the essence very well: 'for America it is what good is the world without American hegemony, for Russia what good is the world without Russia'
In late 2022, Russia was on the ropes. A NATO/ Ukrainian victory looked certain, and the U.S. was planning to overthrow Vladimir Putin and install its puppet in Moscow.
1. Russia was never “on the ropes”
2. In what world did anyone think that the US could stage a coup in Russia to overthrow Putin.
NATO’s Ukrainian forces would enter Donbass and Crimea, and wipe out the local Russian-speaking population much like the Palestinians in Gaza. Tens of thousands of civilians would be slaughtered, and millions more would be homeless as they fled NATO/ Ukrainian death squads.
3. This scenario is so over the top it defies any rational comprehension.
Thus, I can only surmise that this was a work of satire. 🤷🏻🥴🤣
Yet I have the impression that this article is quite different... Contrasting I would say, based on what was posted exactly in November 2022

WTF has the author of this article been smoking? Or am I missing the point and this is satire? 🤷🏻🥴🤣
Read the article first before leaving a stupid comment. Thanks
I did🙂
