Biden calls Russia biggest threat to international order

U.S. Vice President Joe Biden [...] described Russia [...] as the biggest threat to the international [u]liberal[/u] order and said Washington must work with Europe to stand up to Vladimir Putin. [...]

Biden called Article 5 of the NATO treaty, which states that an attack on one member of the transatlantic military alliance is considered an attack on all, a "sacred obligation". [...]

"Defending the liberal international order requires that we resist the forces of European disintegration and maintain our longstanding insistence on a Europe, whole, free and peaceful," said Biden.

"It means fighting for the European Union, one of the most vibrant and consequential institutions on earth," he added.

Some people don;t want an “international Order’ because they realize that the Jack boots needed to “force an international order” are a too high price to pay you dingbat!

Interestingly, he skips ISIS-Al-Qaeda, the Palestinians, and Islamic invasions of western culture.

I’m half-expecting the Obama administration to initiate some military confrontation with Russia in Syria during his last days in office, so that Trump can inherit a disastrous mess and take the blame for a predecessor’s recklessness.

It all depends on what he defines the international order to be. Most likely he is referring to the Soros/Clinton/Merkle dominated Kleptocrcy that has gathered half of the ‘free’ worlds wealth into the hands of 10 people.

Joe Biden is the most disgraceful man to hold the office of Vice President and that's saying a lot when your competition is the vile LBJ. More people should be aware of why.

Biden used the tragedy of the accident that killed his first wife and daughter in 1972 to blood libel the truck driver involved, Curtis Dunn, for political gain. Not content with getting what would be tremendous sympathy for such a loss and benefiting politically in an unavoidable but understandable manner, Biden had to make sure he would benefit by claiming Dunn drank his lunch that fateful day in 1972 instead of eating it. Biden knew the compliant media would run with his story, but just to make sure he could maximize the lie and not be refuted, he waited until after Dunn died in 1999 to tell his monstrous falsehood.

Countries don’t have friends - or enemies - they have interests.

President Trump needs to focus on areas where we can work with Russia to make the world safer for the West and for decent people. We can bomb ISIS and Al Qaeda back into the stone age, where they want to live, to end the Syrian civil war. Whether or not you like Assad, and I don’t, he’s FAR better than perpetual civil war or ISIS, or Al Qaeda.

We can cooperate in other areas too, and we should look for common interests where we can cooperate. It is in President Putin’s interest to find common cause with President Trump, rather than doing anything provocative like grabbing more land in Europe. The “international order” that Biden worries about can be defined to emphasize our interests rather than some abstract globalist agenda.

What is odd is that the SJW crowd appears to have been totally brainwashed into NWO acceptance.

Beep .. wrong Plugs!

The biggest threat to the international order is, and has been for the last 14 centuries, Islam.

After Islam is it cultural Marxism (McGovernites don’t seem to have an issue with actual Marxists either) ... or the cold dead hands of the old Soviet Union still polluting the world till this very day through political correctness, the championing all sorts of faggotry and disintegration of moral, or even natural, norms.

But Biden is a Democrat,a DNC brand Demoocrat, and to the sort the international order seems to be whatever is against Christ and righteousness (being “secular”), whatever is against free economies and moral uprightness.

Sadly, too many Republicans aren’t far behind.
