Diplomatic solutions are only possible when all sides wish to have a diplomatic solution. The history of the 20th and probably earlier centuries have examples of appeasing vs. opposing those interested in upsetting apple carts. I think 1938 shows that there comes a time to push back a little earlier in the process.

Yeah, and it's 2026 and one would believe we vote for people whose staff prepares them and adequate responses for such events in advance. But ... I don't want to say self-corruption via shareholdership of friends of friends and a laissez-faire type of law making and enforcement in nooks where it reeaally should not be laissez-faire.

Fat chance expecting the European nations to stand up to USA's strong-arm tactics, when they have willingly supported it blindly for every new war in the past (as NATO coalition).

Oh wait, it was the British+Europeans who allowed the U.S.Dollar to become the dominant exchang currency of the world in the first place, thus enabling USA to do whatever it pleases...

Here's the interesting tale of how the world economy came to shaped after the World Wars, due to a cunning American and some last-minute forgery.
