Best criticism Ive read about the state of USA incorporateds position on Ukraine ... America is dangerously and confusingly swinging between activism and isolationism, between military interventionism and the rejection of any forceful involvement, from wiretapping every and any ally leader that matters to whining when someone discovers the secret and exposes it to the public, from the sending of a flock of lethal drones into a foreign sovereign territory, to the mere expression of dissatisfaction via a single tweet at a time when international crises require a more flexible approach. As has become evident in the recent days, the White House doesnt have a clear-cut plan for preventing and containing crises of this nature and magnitude, and so far no one has seriously considered where exactly the grey zone between direct confrontation and nonsensical, meaningless threats, exists. So maybe the whole Ukrainian debacle did have at least one positive effect. It has made Washington start contemplating on an action plan for those cases when the military option is unthinkable, and passiveness is intolerable.
