The New York Times is supposed to contain “all the news that’s fit to print.”
But these days it reads more like a press release for Democrats.
And this week the New York Times handed the reins over to Joe Biden with results that are every bit as awful as you’d expect.
Joe Biden keeps claiming he doesn’t want to start World War 3.
But his actions are calculated to take a dangerous situation and cause it to escalate as quickly as possible.
Through one blunder after the next, he’s been stumbling closer to turning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine into a much bigger mess.
Now, he’s published an op-ed in the New York Times basically throwing gasoline on the fire.
“We have moved quickly to send Ukraine a significant amount of weaponry and ammunition so it can fight on the battlefield and be in the strongest possible position at the negotiating table,” Biden wrote.
“That’s why I’ve decided that we will provide the Ukrainians with more advanced rocket systems and munitions that will enable them to more precisely strike key targets on the battlefield in Ukraine,” he added.
His rambling explanation to anyone bored enough to read the New York Times op-ed columns has to be baffling career government employees.
It’s a diplomatic disaster and a strategic military failure.
Remember the collective gasp from the diplomatic community when Donald Trump took a congratulatory call from the president of Taiwan when he was first elected?
The US has been selling military equipment to the tiny island nation for decades, according to diplomatic etiquette government officials were supposed to pretend the independent Republic of China doesn’t exist.
If that was considered a serious gaffe, Biden’s op-ed is tantamount to a declaration of war.
He isn’t merely slipping some weapons to Ukraine on the sly, he’s turning Volodymyr Zelensky loose with the big guns.
Not only that, but he’s providing Vladimir Putin with an inventory so the world can properly engage in an arms race.
“We will continue providing Ukraine with advanced weaponry, including Javelin anti-tank missiles, Stinger anti aircraft missiles, powerful artillery and precision rocket systems, radars, unmanned aerial vehicles, Mi-17 helicopters and ammunition,” Biden wrote.
Anyone remember how World War 1 started?
Nothing makes weapon manufacturers happier than countries comparing notes on who has the biggest, baddest, and most guns.
The most disturbing part about this latest piece is that Biden’s Administration can’t blame any foolishness on the president going off teleprompter in a demented fit.
This is the best he and his handlers can come up with.
And the most honest coverage the New York Times can provide is to let Biden and Friends literally have free rein over exactly what gets printed.
