Russia-Ukraine Week 23: Biden doesn't want diplomacy

In my previous blog post about the invasion and war, I noted that a majority of Americans want diplomacy.  Almost 60 percent, even if it does NOT mean the status quo ante bellum for Ukraine.

But, Warmonger Joe, aka Inflationmonger Joe, doesn't.

Proof is in the pudding, both past and present.

Pudding past? The US kneecapped pre-war negotiations, either two-party between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, or four-party, with Germany and France, led by then Chancellor Merkel and President Macron, the same two nations that brokered the Minsk II agreements broken by both Russia and Ukraine (despite Zelenskyy's claims as part of the so-called "Normandy Four" countries) that he supported Minsk (albeit saying he supported it with tweaks). And, that kneecapping continued into the early weeks of the war.

Pudding present? Warmonger Joe sending the famous Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne to Europe for the first time since WWII.

Who could blame Putin for later telling Macron he "wanted to go play ice hockey" rather than talking to Biden?

And, with that, once again "fuck you very much" to the cowardly groveling by the Congressional Progressive Caucus, from Chairwoman Primala Jayapal through the 30 members who signed the letter calling for negotiations, including Ilhan Omar, AOC and other members of The Fraud, er The Squad, and down to the 70 who refused to sign it in the first place.

As I said there?

You just surrendered your leverage, per your groveling response of saying you're going to vote for all new expenditures, or, per a sex-neutral upgrade of a famous LBJ saying?

You just put your gonads in Biden's pocket.

There you go.
