Wouldn't it be nice if we had a government that tried to PREVENT wars instead of STARTING them?
The end result of the Ukraine war is going to be:
1) No NATO membership for Ukraine
2) Russian control of the Donbass region
3) Russian control of some portion of Ukraine, perhaps all the way to the Dniper
4) Lots of $$$ for the MIC
5) Lots of dead soldiers
6) Global realignment that benefits Russia and China
If peace was sought by US "leadership", you would have had #1 and #2, but not the rest.
Basically, the US traded some graft that benefits the 0.001% for a lot of dead Ukrainian solders and a stronger China. A shitty deal for everyone except China and the grifters.
