Biden’s latest deterrence flop? The Cuban Missile Crisis, Part 2
NY Post
Paging Dr. Strangelove: A US attack submarine has arrived at Gitmo in Cuba in response to the worrying arrival of a Russian fleet in Havana.
It’s gallows humor indeed, but there is a dark hilarity in the fact that what could be the last major foreign policy disaster of Joe Biden’s term (though who knows?) is looking like a rerun of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Except instead of JFK as president, we have (gulp) Geriatric Joe, going senile in front of our eyes.
And Secretary of State Antony Blinken ain’t exactly Dean Rusk, either.
How did we get to the point where Vladimir Putin feels comfortable sailing a state-of-the-art warfleet into the Atlantic to menace America?
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the Biden administration has 100% given up on the idea of deterrence.
