Joe Biden's don'ts
By Peter Olsson
In his vague warning to Hezb’allah in Lebanon -- really Iran -- against widening the Israel-Gaza War, Joe Biden warned Arab aggressors from widening their war against Israel by saying, Don’t, Don’t, Don’t in his trademark partial whisper. He really reveals his own series of his own “Don’t, Don’t, Don’ts’”:
Don’t -- impulsively, foolishly, and prematurely abandon Afghanistan for symbolic political purposes, when your own military advisors and NATO allies astutely recommended that you leave three thousand troops to assure easier surveillance of Iran and China’s nuclear sites, and to prevent inevitable resurgence of Al Qaeda, ISIS, and other terrorist haters of America in Afghanistan.
Don’t -- Look frequently at your watch while watching unloaded coffins of the dead troops who died during the chaos at Karsi airport that your flawed decision caused.
Don’t -- Always bring up your unresolved grief about your son Beau in efforts to comfort grieving military families. Beau did serve, as you did not, but not in Afghanistan.
Don’t -- Abruptly undermine and attack American oil and gas independence, the bedrock of American prosperity and energy independence.
Don’t -- Fawn over the Green New Deal for political gain while neglecting problems related a gradual transition for less use of fossil fuels.
Don’t – Okay the Nordstream pipeline that undermined our European allies and helped Putin.
Don’t -- Coyly hint that a small incursion by Putin into Ukraine might not bring immediate action by America. Putin listens to such carefully.
Don’t – Timidly predict sanctions on Putin if he chose to invade Ukraine instead of starting heavy sanctions on Russia and giving massive amount of lethal military aid to Ukraine preemptively.
Don’t -- Allow America to give twice as much financial support to Ukraine as other NATO countries and yet too little, too late for weapons that could have assured a decisive victory of Ukraine over Putin.
