. . . And therein lies the rub.. . . I suspect NATO will implode sooner or later. It has become more like a mafiosie gangster nations hell bent on pushing US dogma and policies. . .
NATO the organisation and its members know it's game over for them if Russia wins the war. And, for all intents and purposes, that has already happened and the Russians are just grinding it out in a way that minimises their own casualties. I may have mentioned this once or twice before - but the ONLY way complete victory for Russia can, possibly, be averted is if NATO gets involved directly. Doing that risks nuclear war and everyone loses - so they're trying to find ways to do more to support Ukraine without committing fully to the cause - e.g. Macron sending in The French Foreign Legion. None of it will work: it'll merely prolong the inevitable - i.e. a negotiated settlement on Russian terms. In the meantime, more money and lives are wasted. Still, if they can just keep it going 'til November and Biden gets re-elected - it'll be worth it. Like I say, they're all criminally insane.
