Well that was Victoria Nuland's plan, start the Ukraine war to take out Russia and the take on China.
I think crazy in either part of the plan, but here we are supporting Ukraine and pushing NATO into the fight.
Nuland’s biggest concerns were always with the Russians. Her replacement is the big China hawk. The change is probably a harbinger of us skedaddling out of the Uke catastrophe and staggering into the China catastrophe. Our SOP, the last fifty years.
