President Biden is the "Savvy Genius" in Current Foreign Policy

Biden's decision to disclose everything they were getting through intelligence reports was key to winning the trust of most of the rest of the world and pulling the NATO alliance, which had lost its trust of the United States during the Trump administration, back together. American intelligence is the best in the world and they got this right, down to the specific plan of attack, the pretext Putin would use to launch his invasion and direct reports from the Donbas and Crimea that what Putin claimed was happening wasn't really happening.

This might be going much differently had Ukraine been a NATO member. But even that card is playing into Biden's hand. NATO's credibility and the support that it is gathering, even from the reluctant neutrals, is the fact that Putin has made all of the aggressive moves in this campaign. He's bombing civilian neighborhoods, creating the humanitarian crisis, taking out his frustration over Ukraine becoming a freedom-loving country by damaging and destroying its cities. The time may come when some kind of military intervention is warranted, like a no-fly zone, but right now, all of the aggression and destruction, and the humanitarian crisis that has developed, is all on Putin.

The Founding Fathers tried to protect us from the threat they knew, the tyranny that overcame ancient democracy. Today, our political order faces new threats, not unlike the totalitarianism of the twentieth century. We are no wiser than the Europeans who saw democracy yield to fascism, Nazism, or communism. Our one advantage is that we might learn from their experience. --Timothy Snyder, On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century

Thankfully, the President of the United States is Joe Biden. And that gives me confidence that this will turn out well, and we will move forward toward a more peaceful world after it is over, having learned yet another lesson from history.

1. What have we learned? We're watching genocide.

We’re watching children being bombed and starved. I’m fed up with those who can’t think of more than themselves.

2. So do we set up a no-fly zone and call Putin's bluff?

Send troops? Is Putin really unbalanced and crazy, and would he risk the devastation of his own country just to get his way in Ukraine?

3. He's not going to stop with Ukraine. He has nothing to lose now.

4. He doesn't have the military ability to hold Ukraine even if it does fall to him.

And he has plenty to lose.

5. Do you think the world is going to go back to normal

Re: Russia, ever? Putrid is now aligned with the evil in the world. His country should be removed from everything.

6. The Biden administration is working "actively" with Poland to send fighter jets to Ukraine
