Biden's Dizzying Autumn-2023
Poor 46th President of America cannot get a break. No, it has nothing to do with the Russia-Ukraine war. No, it has nothing to do with the Israeli-Palestinian war. This is his other, third war.
Imagine a US president with the legacy of three wars. Imagine further none of the wars are going his way. Finally, imagine how these wars come home and hunt us.
TIME TO REPLACE BIDEN OR NOT IS NOW
There are worried voices among Democrats. If Joe Biden should be replaced as the candidate of the party in the 2024 presidential election, time is now.
Shouldn’t they grieve about the victims of their president’s wars, first, instead?Ukrainians and Israelis already became sacrificial lambs.
Worrying about what to do with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. candidacy must not be the priority. Doing the right thing must be.
Biden’s Dizzying Autumn 2023
Biden now has a Syria problem. It is a lot bigger but more importantly the third war that will hurt the most. In Syria, there are hundreds of US servicemen and women.
American hostages in the Israeli-Palestinian war were there at their own will and luck. These US servicemen and women are there because they are sent there or else.
Syria Problem
In Syria, there was about 200 US servicemen and women in 2020. They were the last batch for President Donald Trump to bring them home safe and sound.
Joe Biden increased their numbers nearly five times as soon as he arrived in the Oval Office. Three years into this adventure, the options for the US there are complicated.
Bad news is they may have to be pulled out quickly. That will look like a weakness for the US that is losing face with each policy over there.
Worse news, this inept administration may decide to wait for the cover of the 2024 election. Keeping them there for another year may require body bags.
Biden’s Third War
That would then go into history as Biden's Third War. However, it may also register as a war when the US lost heroes without firing a bullet.
In Syria, there is no “visible” or “formal” enemy in sight. Especially for the US servicemen and women, there is no direct or credible threat to shoot at.
In other words, Biden’s Third War is sure to become a “Fusion War”. It will involve syndrome like “Vietnam” but also “out of this world new age military technologies' '.
Biden’s Third War will not be like the conventional war in Ukraine. It will not be an urban warfare like in Gaza. It will be a “Close Encounter of the Third Kind.”
