Incorrigibly childish United States makes grownup behavior impossible

What other humiliations will we American patriots have to endure . . .

 

. . . from this nation's brain-deficient neocon leadership?

 

 

For example

 

Regarding associated effects of the Russo-Ukrainian War:

 

 

Moscow claims Washington is making normal business at its American diplomatic offices impossible.

 

Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov says frozen bank accounts and threats restrict engagement between the world’s nuclear superpowers.

 

Antonov told the Russian outlet RIA Novosti, "the embassy is under blockade by US government agencies, the accounts of our two consulates general in Houston and New York were closed by Bank of America. We receive telephone threats, and letters come… At one time, even the exit from the embassy was blocked.”

 

Russian Consul General Vyacheslav Slavkin outlined how even simple tasks like paying utilities, making payroll, and leaving the embassy have become cumbersome

 

"We do not have the right to issue checks, all cards are blocked. We do not have the right to pay for any services through electronic channels."

Evaluated

 

This US behavior is the equivalent of tantrum-yelling — 'nyaah, nyaah, nyaah' — while plugging one's ears.

 

In this manner, American leadership makes diplomatic business impossible. And thus, the war (which the United States provoked as a matter of policy) can keep going.

 

Thereby continuing to chew up Ukrainian lives up by the tens of thousands. All this occurring, while the United States continues to sit on its bloated imperial, weapons-providing, proxy-murdering ass.

 

Admirable.

 

 

The moral? — On the one hand . . .

 

. . .  we see reasonably competent grownups in Russian, Chinese and Indian leadership.

 

On the other, we experience tantrum-throwing, murder-encouraging, consistently imbecilic children in Washington DC.

 

This now characteristic American behavior is the antithesis of the Founders' thoughts, actions and recommendations from 1776 through 1787 (and mildly beyond).

 

The United States is, we can conclude, diligently suffocating its most respect-worthy reasons for still existing.

 

No one is going to miss us, when the Cosmic Toilet's swirly waters close over our neocon-adoring heads for the last time.

 

And so concludes, Benjamin Franklin's 1787 admonition — “A Republic, if you can keep it.”
