I meant the Ukrainian/Russian front and the Israeli/Iranian front.
We being the UK, etc.If you're 'helping' one side you're effectively at war against the other.

Fair point and in the post WWII real world order I would agree. However in the emerging world of personality driven transactional foreign and trade policy, there is now compelling evidence to the contrary.

@jon-nyc @renauda I dont disagree. But I am generally an optimist on people, and I think that a lot of them probably cringe a bit inside when they have to defend some of the things that President Trump says.
I know that there have been times (on a very much smaller scale) that I have had to go to outsiders and "defend" things from my boss(es) that I either did not agree with or were not quite correct.

I’ve been there too once or twice, in the end though that particular boss was gone not long after.
I am jaded, it is an earned privilege of being such as a 65 + senior who has seen just a bit too much over the years.

I worked for a truly awful boss for what was an extremely long 10 years between 2003 and 2013, and so I'm willing to cut people a little slack. After he'd gone I realised I'd been suffering with fairly significant anxiety issues for over 5 years. Other people had got it worse - some quit, at least one had to take medical leave.
We still talk about him now. His resemblance to the Lundberg character in Office Space was genuinely uncanny.
