Blame Putin!

[Philthy_Phil]

Every country on the planet is experiencing the same thing. It must be all Biden's fault. Lol

 

[LukSkyFokker]

Who else would AJ blame for his lifetime of failing?

 

[mayfly13]

Mayfly, we have a laundry list of countries that we have under sanction.
These sanctions have not moderated their bellicosity, belligerence or
willingness to impose their will through violence on others.
The only people who pay the price of those sanctions
are the people trapped in these petty tyrannies.

Amen!!! Well said.

My question being - We all know that Biden screwed the pooch badly with those sanctions.
But did he instate them out of incompetence
or did his advisors knew very well what they were doing -- some other goal or whatever?

Finish your sentence.

You forgot to mention the coming recession. Inflation with recession is a witches brew leading to great upheaval and suffering. And they won't be able to buy their way out of it.

Let's not forget Iran's new nuclear weapon.

If it's new, when did it start and why? (Hint- it started before the current administration and might ruin your argument)

They have been able to proceed because the Democrats have allowed them to do so. Even during the Trump administration Obama administration officials were quietly negotiating with Iran to undermine the Trump administration foreign policy applied to Iran.

The only reason I can think of for their behavior is they want to help Iran nuke Israel.

They haven't allowed them to do anything. They've started negotiations on day one to restore the previous diplomatic agreement to curb their additional actions and get them back to a level close to it was before 45.

They publicly ramped up production once the US left the deal, to persuade the US to rejoin the deal and once that didn't happen, they had no reason to do anything that the US wanted.

We won't ever get back to the levels we negotiated in the JCPOA because the previous administration gave away any leverage we had to negotiate.

Aside from being a complete idiot. You don't know shit about this subject to start with. These talks, which were ended by Trump and brought sanctions on Iran, began again by Biden, the sanctions lifted which enabled them to go forth with their enrichment efforts to the point where today they now have enough enriched uranium to build a nuclear weapon. Obama started it, Trump interrupted it, Democrat traitors kept it going surreptitiously, Biden opened it all up again made more and more concessions, and even let the Russians negotiate on our behalf while the Iranians laughed at how fucking stupid Joe Biden was.

Skyrocketing energy costs
Looming food shortages
Ballooning inflation

Biden didn't do any of this, he's a hapless victim, just a victim of circumstances he did not create.
The problem here is Putin's aggressions towards Ukraine, that's the root cause of everything.

Is it?

During the Obama-Biden Administration, Putin took Crimea.
Now under the Biden-Harris Administration Putin takes more territory.

I think we have a clear common denominator when it comes to Progressive Power
and it's polity of patience, pacification and petulant pleas to please prefer peace...

We are where we are at firstly because of our domestic war on energy production,
and our retreat, in lapping waves from the role of world stabilizer and guarantor
of basic human rights against would-be tyrants and religious zealotry (in favor
of domestic purges against imaginary tyranny and religion run amuck).
When Putin saw that we would not even control our own borders
when Progressives are at the helm of state, the only conclusion
that he can reach in his tyrannical mind is that we won't
defend Ukraine's either. All we have done is sputter
and send weapons for a proxy war that extends
regional instability and pridefully boast,
our blood is not being spilled!
Only our money bleeds.

Blame Biden!
Blame (D)!

Lot to digest here.

First, as someone who has actually been to, talked to and written reports on the now Independent Countries and Former Eastern Soviet Bloc Countries, let me tell you this fact, IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE who was sitting in the Oval Office when Russia invaded Ukraine and took Crimea. That was going to happen no matter what. Putin was waiting for the Pro-Soviet Movement to get in stronger positions within the government and civilian workforce. DO NOT kid yourself, there is a strong number of people in those countries(Ukraine, Belarus, Bulgaria, Romania, etc) that very much want the USSR power bloc back. THAT BEING SAID, having Democrats in office DID make it easier.

The one thing that Democrats say often and that I WHOLE HEARTEDLY agree with is that, America can not be the world's police force.

Second, the "Domestic War on Energy Production" is a massive problem. It has driven up the price of not just gas but also other household products as well. Shutting down the Keystone Pipeline was beyond fucking stupid. Does America need to find ways to use less crude oil??? Absolutely we need to and should. There's no simple solution though. Most importantly, $5 a gallon for gasoline will drive us into the next Great Depression, if this keeps up.

Third, You are correct that we are pissing away taxpayer money by sending billions and billions of dollars sending it to Ukraine, along with weapons and the technology that comes with it.

There is no "upcoming food shortages" because it's already here. Wal-Mart has whole isles that are empty. Pastas, Meats, Bread, etc.

The current decay of American Society is most definitely mostly the fault of Democrats, and even their voters are starting to see that.

The most important problem in all of this, is this simple fact.....People have forgotten that The Executive Branch is SUPPOSED to be the WEAKEST of the 3 branches of government.

I will not be replying to anyone. Hell, I'll probably end up ignoring most of y'all anyway.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Have fun, Stay safe, and tell your loved ones that you love them. Tomorrow is never promised.

None of what you said it true. Sanctions were lifted by the JCPOA, by Obama, to coincide with the agreement. They would be restored if Iran violated the deal. When Trump left the deal, Iran publicly announced they would restart enrichment unless the US returned to the agreement. Once the US did not, I ran slowly started up production beyond the limits.

Tl;dr- the deal was solid until the US left.

I've read the deal from top to bottom and have read a large number of analysis from supporters and detractors of the deal.(specifically from Nuclear proliferation experts) Your statements clearly prove you only know whats been told to you by biased interpreters. I doubt you even know where to find the IAEA Iran reports which were recorded before the deal fell apart

 

[rockcasbah]

Ever since the Shah, who was a pretty good puppet ruler vis a vis promoting US interests, got the boot, the US has been licking its ass about Iran.

Get over it. Could be a great strategic ally.

You can't have a deal that can't be verified. Inspections on military sites where most of the activity was happening were not going to be allowed. Trust but verify!

It was verified. And documented. The few sites without access we're monitored in other ways.

And when they found out that there was activity going on which would've triggered action, the US was already out of the deal.

Purely pandering to, pleasuring and pleasing his base who truly believe that sanctions are a panacea.
