On the other side, there was no effort at de-escalation from the American side, as I've already written, and this has surprised even military commentators. Usually, when a war starts, de-escalation is the first thing tried and may avoid death and ruin. Why this? Biden was the first one to escalate and ignore diplomacy. As evil as Putin may be, why ignore totally the rules of diplomacy? If diplomacy fails, then it is clear that everything was attempted to avoid the total ruin of a nation (Ukraine). We cannot say this attempt has been made. Why?

In the case for America its complications can be simplified. We're a compromised nation no longer based on diplomacy. We have an, "installment" of a "president" and a "weaponized" justice system. I don't think we've completely fallen, but damned if we ain't close.
