It appears the US and Israel underestimated greatly how Ukraine would effect the world.

US lost considerable diplomatic credibility in Ukraine as Russia China Iran BRICS grow quickly.

It appears neither US or Israel considered how Russia China Iran would be pushed together ( though it was an obvious result)., and to make matters worse, the US continues actions to push them further together (eg: constant threats to China)

Us lost monetarily, as well as the moral high ground. Constantly reported is how Innocent Ukrainian Civilians are rounded up, kidnapped off the streets and forced to fight without proper training or weapons. It appears by all accounts that the lower income and lower educated are forced to fight by beatings or at gunpoint, the US not only pays for it all but appears to condition free flowing money on the ' mobilization ' of more innocent civilians.

The US is the indespensable nation; Ukraine is from all appearances dispensable.

US and Israel lost considerably more credibility in Gaza; the world is aghast.

So many errors too numerous to list. eg: Just as the US understimated the capability of Russian artillery they underestimated Yemen as well they underestimated Hamas.

US and Israel on both fronts appear to have only planned for a ' quick ' result, never imagining much less planning for a war of attrition. A complete diplomatic failure; a complete military failure.

And now the US has the stain of Genocide; the founding father of the Genocide Convention

after Germany and WWII is the diplomatic economic and miltary foundation of the Israeli Genocide.

The founding father of the United Nations now ignores the rulings if they are not able to veto.

The only argument appears to be, is the US merely complicit in the Genocide or is the US taking an active role and leading in it.

Well just one persons opinion and pondering.

I opine many of us feel helpless as our Country continues to stain us with the Genocide and as we must sit and watch the brutality and slaughter.

My attitude is all sides in the Middle East lie (tribes come first), and the less the US is involved the better.
