Can anybody picture the Japanese or Germans telling us (in late spring or late summer of 1945) that we would have to abandon captured territory and pay reparations for a cease fire and that THEY would be determining conditions??

I mean, anybody in 45 would have assumed that there wasn't that much chutzpah in the world and that anybody on the axis side talking like that had just had too many bad experiences in life recently had had gone completely batshit crazy.

Nonetheless here in 2023, there actually IS that much chutzpah in the world. Tony Blinken actually has that much chutzpah.

Or is totally batshit crazy.... The only safe assumption to be had here is that the entire Biden admin is crazy.....
