[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Robert Gates:  "Biden has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.”

I am certain he would say the same thing if asked today.

Obviously, you disagree, but I think this was a good move by Biden.  By playing it very slow and cool, so far, I think Biden has done the best job that could be done by the US right now.  While we will back up and support, this is Europe's war right now, to escalate or soften, as they need to.  The longer that Russia bleeds, the better, for everyone.[/quote]

I strongly disagree.  Putin views Biden as weak.  Because he is.  And, this move reinforces that.  
Biden is letting Putin call the shots.  
Biden has done a piss poor job.  And, [b]deciding not to send the planes that Ukraine needs i[/b]s a cowardly move by Biden.

And, remember.... when Russia bleeds, so do innocent Ukrainians.  That is NOT better for them.  [/quote]

This is debatable. Ukraine can't use the planes it already has because Russia has better anit-aircraft weapons. Those Polish planes would sit on the ground in Ukraine.

What Ukraine really needs is a no-fly zone, but that would involve NATO in direct conflict with Russia. NATO planes would have to shoot down Russian planes.

There are no good options for the US in Ukraine. I think Biden made the best decision he could about the Polish planes.
