War

Ukrainian troops refuse to shoot their own people, abandon their weapons and go home.

Americans no longer see a moral reason to fight overseas wars, and maybe fiscal sanity is a factor too.

Four-star General who developed Stuxnet virus and unleashed it on Iranian nuclear facilities

"In fact, Gen. James Cartwright has not gone to jail and the above paragraph remains – as yet – a grim Washington fairy tale. There is indeed a Justice Department investigation open against the president’s "favorite general" (as Washington scribe to the stars Bob Woodward once labeled him) for the possible leaking of information on that virus to the New York Times, but that’s all. He remains quite active in private life, holding the Harold Brown Chair in Defense Policy Studies at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, as a consultant to ABC News, and on the board of Raytheon, among other things. He has suffered but a single penalty so far: he was stripped of his security clearance."

Should have gone to jail.
