Biden slouches toward the Powell Doctrine

Submitted by Dave (United States), May 29, 2022 at 15:35

It's taken the Biden admin a while to realize that appeasement and limited warfare don't work with Putin. It finally seems to be coming around to the Powell Doctrine, named for General Colin Powell: Once you decide to engage, go for all out victory. I still have my doubts as to whether they really are committed to victory, but at least there's been an improvement.
