It is democracy, stupid!

Currently, there are two major wars ongoing: Ukraine and Gaza. America is heavily behind both.
Why is it?
Money – Almost everything American is about money!
The Marshall Plan is widely regarded as the greatest achievement of postwar US foreign policy. But do calls for a new Marshall Plan for a postwar Ukraine make sense?

Although the 2024 general election is still more than one year away, I have already made up my mind: anybody but Joe Biden!
Here is the reason: The war in Ukraine poses an existential threat to mankind, as it may result in World War III, thus destroying us all as a species. President Biden could have prevented that war from breaking out but chose not to. Moreover, he can stop the war any time now but has yet to do so.
The worst crisis in the world today is the war in Ukraine, which, if not managed well, may destroy us all as a species (This Is How World War III Begins). The crisis is often compared with the Cuban Missile Crisis, and hence the solution should be similar too (How JFK Would Pursue Peace in Ukraine).
I agree with this analogy in principle, but would like to take this opportunity to better understand the Cuban Missile Crisis, the war in Ukraine, JFK, and Joe Biden.
In this post, I will highlight two great American public intellects: John Mearsheimer and Jeffrey Sachs, focusing on their insights into the war in Ukraine and American exceptionalism.
Today marks the 1-year anniversary for the war in Ukraine.
What is this war, anyway?
It is time for the world to truly understand it in order to end it as soon as possible.
Ballroom (BR) dancing is a thriving industry in America. But what is it and how well does it mirror America?
No, it will not happen soon!
A Google search of the same title has resulted in just one book: Europe without America?, whose cover is highlighted above. It was published in 1988. But Europe is still with America today. Why is that?
On 2/24/2022, Russia launched a war against Ukraine. Most Americans reacted fiercely against Russia, without reasoning. This is just like they did in the wake of the 9/11/2001 attacks on America!
It’s time to compare the two events, as well as the two respective American reactions.
