... so we enter a 'phoney war' for the next several months as our feeble politicians flail about meeting/talking/meeting/talking with no action, It's history repeating itself (when the so-called Allies failed to address the Hitler threat in1938). Eventually - and especially and only when the US has finished working out how to financially rape their Allies and victims for war time expenses (as they have done ever since WW1) they will join the inevitable WW3 fight. I think this may be the reason why they always arrive late to join the fighting (to the US, business is more important than correcting the wrongs. If you don't believe me, look up Ford Motor Co and the Nazi's).
Enjoy the life we have for now, dear friends ...
