Peace In Our Time: Biden to Allow Germany, I Mean Russia, To Take Parts of Czechoslovakia, I Mean Ukraine, With Promise that Hitler, I Mean Putin, Will Stop All of His Territorial-Expansion Behavior Soon

Biden will press Ukraine to basically accept that the Donbas region, which Russia has troops in, has been successfully conquered by Russia and is now part of Russia.

But as a face-saving measure -- to save Biden's face and no one else's -- the Donbas will be called an "autonomous region" which is under no one's control.

Except, you know, the actual Russian troops that actually control it.

Again, this does nothing for the Ukraine, as it cedes their territory to Russia. It does nothing for Russia, as it pretends away their victory.

This would only be a "victory" for Joe Biden, and only a PR one at that.

In addition, while Biden will pretend to refuse Russia's demand that NATO never admit Ukraine into NATO, behind the scenes he's telling Ukraine... that NATO will never admit Ukraine into NATO.

Our foreign policy is down to Democrats begging Russia, "Please do not make this too humiliating for us, because we have midterms coming up and we're already going to lose a lot of seats. And you guys remember -- we were always your close ideological allies before we pretended to be your savage opposition starting January 20, 2017."

Administration officials have suggested that the U.S. will press Ukraine to formally cede a measure of autonomy to eastern Ukrainian lands now controlled by Russia-backed separatists who rose up against Kyiv in 2014. An undefined "special status" for those areas was laid out in an ambiguous, European-brokered peace deal in 2015, but it has never taken hold.

Biden also will have to finesse Ukraine's desire to join NATO. The U.S. and NATO reject Putin's demands that they guarantee Ukraine won't be admitted to the Western military alliance.

But senior State Department officials have told Ukraine that NATO membership is unlikely to be approved in the next decade, according to a person familiar with those private talks who spoke on condition of anonymity.

For Biden, the challenge will be encouraging Kyiv to accept some of the facts on the ground in eastern Ukraine, without appearing to cave to Putin -- a perception that could embolden the Russian leader and unleash a fresh line of condemnations by Republicans as Biden's popularity is already in decline.

Our "foreign" policy under Democrat presidents always, always devolves into a purely domestic policy psyops operation aimed at deceiving the American public for the political advantage of the Democrat Party, begging foreign regimes and the propaganda state media to pretend that everything's going just swell when things are falling apart and that America is winning when America is being humiliated.

Hey everybody --

Remember when any policy decision with respect to Russia short of declaring physical war on a nuclear-armed country was proof positive that the president was under the direct control of the KGB?

I remember, because I'm older than four years old.

Meanwhile, delusionary neocon chickenhawks demand that we do go to war with Russia, with the hollowed-out, ineffectual #Woke military and the divided country-in-anarcharic-chaos which they helped bring into being:

Tell you what, we can put boots on the ground in Russia so long as the first boots on the ground belong to PFC Noah Rothman and PFC Jim Swift and of course Generalissimo Bill Kristol.

I will totally, rabidly support war with those conditions.

Oh, and I want video. Draft the Young Turks team as war "journalists" (LOL) and have them report from the front lines.
