>> Since when has Ukraine become the center of the universe? Ukraine did not cause the new paradigm.

I'm not the person going on about it. I'm simply responding to those who have elevated its importance to world war status.

>> We used to be collaborative, structuring for win-wins. We used to have honor, standing up for values and upholding our commitments as a general rule. We used to treat people with at least a modicum of dignity. We respected truth. We practiced stewardship. We used our heads.

There is no win to be had. Now, it is about mitigation.

You can't have supported Joe Biden -- who caused this war -- and at the same time say you "used your heads". You used your highly partisan commitment, and it caused this.

So, we can't go blaming everyone else. We need to be honest about why this problem exists and only then can we move forward with really cleaning it up in an effective manner. Otherwise, it is mopping up the water while the leak is still flooding the place.

>> The current position on Ukraine is a product of that loss of values, not the cause.

How many more dead does your honor and commitment think are justified in the instant case? And dignity?

The truth here is they had a war, we gave billions. And it wasn't enough.
