What I don’t understand is this: if Russia invades, Ukraine’s proposed NATO membership becomes a fiction, a failed enterprise. So, why not take it off the table? War would be avoided. If we were following our strategic interests instead of selfish politically one-sided domestic policies disguised as foreign policy, this is exactly what would be happening.

>> with Obama’s “Iran Deal” being the closest competition. This is the item that tops my current chart of the dumbest mistakes a president has made in my memory. Without the US supporting Israel, I really have no idea the status there. Israel has historically been able to take care of itself, but its recent announcement that Iran WILL be a nuclear state has shaken my confidence a bit; I had thought we were in a realm of "Iran will always TRY to become a nuclear power, but Israel will stand up against it unwaveringly." In a sense, I believed Israel was carrying the weight of protecting the world from a nuclear Iran. And now, I just don't know what's up over there.
