An author at American Greatness posts,
Putin let the world know of his intentions. For months he amassed well over 100,000 troops near the border. Response from the United States and the rest of the world? Barely a squeak. Some tough talk but little else. In diplo-speak was this lack of response a face-saving way for the United States and the rest of the world to give Putin the green light while still allowing us to cluck our tongues at these barbaric actions? Remember Biden saying a “little” incursion might be acceptable?
Did Putin therefore assume the world was giving him wink wink, nudge nudge approval, while still maintaining plausible deniability? And just like Saddam, once the action was taken, the United States led an effort to bring hellfire down upon him.
Those politicians who have never met a war they didn’t like are itching to give this one a go—letting those dumb rednecks who join the military have another chance to become cannon fodder for one of their righteous causes.
People high up in the Bush White House wanted Saddam to invade and people high up in the Biden White House wanted Putin to invade. We should never forget this reality regardless of what the drums of war might say.
American Greatness is a great blog, despite the fact that they inexplicitely hide the identity of their authors, which is profoundly irritating to me! Read more of this unkown author here: https://amgreatness.com/2022/03/17/has-putin-been-set-up-like-hussein-in-kuwait/
