#1 It's impossible not to notice how aggressivly the Progressive narrative has focused on "legitimacy" and not the end game. Let's be clear. The reluctance and apparent confusion over whom or which entity will take command over this "Not-War" is a feature- NOT a bug. Make no mistake, the world is witnessing the manifestation of "Progressive Realism". Unfortunatly, one must adopt the most cynical logic to grasp this concept. Basic examination suggests that one of the tent-poles of Progressive ideology is to exploit or create a crisis to advance a greater agenda. Further, there must be a predetermined "solution" to said crisis. Have you heard that one before? Does anything or anyone come to mind when you hear that theory? Mark my words, very soon there will be calls to "re-examine" the roles existing institutions and the need to "take steps" in avoidence of future confusion. In fact, the speeches have already been written. They just need to be updated. You see, the traditional view that the soveriegn nation state can act on behalf of their own intrests has become too cumbersome. Moreover, it has the appearrance of selfish Imperialism. One only has to recall how rapidly the role of billgerent was coordinated to shift away from Saddam Hussien and on to GW Bush. It's a 180 degree twist on the old addage.
Now it the means that justify the end.
