Re: 84 - Not just Biden, but many, many FReepers here apparently have also not considered those eight questions.
One FReeper dismissed the Powell Doctrine because Powell was a “failure”. Would not even address the eight questions regardless of their relevance. When that happens, you can be fairly confident that people have not thought through those eight questions much.
Personally, I think Powell is a scumbag. But the eight questions/points of what they call his doctrine are entirely reasonable and necessary, IMO, if we are going to get engulfed into something that could trigger a nuclear exchange.
