Would Sleepy Joe get up, or turn over.... How did China and Russia react when the NATO invaded Afghanistan and Iraq? Don't want to come across as facetious, but it is important to keep that perspective in play. Since the nineties the NATO has 'ruled the world' and that is now being countered by advancing economies. That doesn't mean I would approve or condone or indeed not speak out loudly against either of those events. It does mean that the picture isn't as simple as expecting the US to counter with its own aggression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
