Joe Biden's Demand of 'Unconditional Surrender' to Russia Will Fail

• https://libertarianinstitute.org by Douglas Macgre

FDR later said that Ulysses S. Grant's 1862 ultimatum of "Unconditional Surrender" to the Confederate garrison holding Fort Donelson in Tennessee was his inspiration. Grant was trying to speed the capture of an isolated fortress and avoid unnecessary casualties on all sides.

But FDR's policy of "Unconditional Surrender" during a destructive global war was unwise and costly. It stiffened German resistance, lengthened the war, pushed violence to its utmost limits and rejected any resolution to the conflict other than the opponents' complete annihilation—the kind of result that Stalin and Hitler called "victory." Sadly, there is no evidence that anyone in the White House or the Pentagon studied the policy's psychological impact on the German or Japanese peoples before it was announced.

Biden's speech on March 26 in Warsaw removed any doubt in Moscow's governing circles that Washington's goal was Russia's destruction: "…that's why I came to Europe again this week with a clear and determined message for NATO…—we must commit now to be in this fight for the long haul…and for the years and decades to come." In case there was any lingering uncertainty, Biden added, "For God's sake this man [Vladimir Putin] cannot remain in power."
