Back in February, Biden said this:

“I will not send American servicemen to fight in Ukraine,” though he added that “if Russia targets Americans in Ukraine, we will respond forcefully.”

So, we have one dead American journalist and one injured.

I am awaiting this "forceful" response.

This was not just any American.

Putin’s military targeted and murdered a very prominent NYT reporter and member of the press corps.

You simply do not murder press without severe consequences.

There is now ample justification for, at a minimum, a full no-fly zone over Ukraine, if not full intervention by NATO forces.

No there isn't. Unfortunately journalists are injured and killed all the time in war zones. That isn't a cause for the US to get involved.

Once again. Biden said this: “I will not send American servicemen to fight in Ukraine,” though he added that “if Russia targets Americans in Ukraine, we will respond forcefully.”

So, we should be expecting a forceful response.
Or, does he not abide by what he say

Lead the way. You first.

Look.... it was BIDEN who said it. Nobody forced him to say these words. He said them.
So, what is he going to do? Just spout empty words? Or, is he going to take action?

Biden is really good about telling Russia what he ISN'T going to do. And, in doing so.... he is basically giving Russia permission to run roughshod over Ukraine.

I would like to hear Biden say, "All options are on the table." I would also like Biden and crew to stop saying what he won't do. I would also like Biden and crew to stop with the public negotiation regarding the jets from Poland and just get the damn jets to Ukraine.

He said that that the US would respond forcefully if Americans were targeted in Ukraine. Well, it has happened. And, we have a dead American.
If he does nothing, he will look weak. Weaker than he already appears.
Time for action.

Jet's from Poland is the start of a bigger war. Jets from the U.S, publicly are the beginning of the Third World War. Kamala went there to tell Poland to stop publicly giving jets to Ukraine. To avoid WWIII. hopefully.
Why do you want a Third World War?
I can only think that you never experienced any kind of hardship in your life and have no idea what war is. Nobody with any brain-power advocates going to war. Particularly not on another continet.

I responded to you but my post was deleted.

A shipment of planes will not escalate the war anymore than a shipment of Javelins or anti-aircraft missiles will. And, we have sent plenty of those.
Biden is weak. He just is. He is letting Putin determine the terms of this conflict.

And, as for me.... my son served in Afghanistan. So, I know plenty about war and its toll on families.
I am not for getting involved in war. But, I would like to know what Biden has in mind in terms of the "forceful" response he promised.

[b]You will complain about Biden no matter what he does so why should anyone take you seriously?[/b]

When it comes to things like this, Biden has proven himself to be pretty bad. We watched what happened in Afghanistan. We saw him say that the threat of sanctions was to serve as a deterrent and only a week later he said that the sanctions weren't intended to prevent anything.
So, I have absolutely no confidence in this administration. None.
[b]I cannot think of one thing they have done well in the past year.[/b]

So, until he does something well, yes - I will complain.[/quote]

This is basically it. You have no nuanced analysis of what Biden has done. I did not vote for Trump, but I'll bet I could fine one thing he did in his first year that I might say, "yes, that was done well". So you are not credible . . . just a complainer.
