Even the moderating voices have realised this which is why they have shut up about this. They can complain all they want but they know that in the room where decisions are made, they are nothing

There is a difference this time. Where in the past they could complain all they want and nothing would change. To not being allowed to complain at all. For example, let’s look at Russia/Ukraine. There were more moderate voices in Germany and Britian early onto the conflict however they were all purged, threaten, and face expulsion. This also extends into academia.

The freedom of complaining was allowed simply because the US felt comfortable allowing that (notice the oxymoron here?..).
Now that the US is in real danger of losing its hegemony, of course no dissenting voices will be allowed.

Same with the vassals, before they were "independent", now that the US is going for a clash with China, of course this independence privilege is being withdrawn. No more carrots, its all sticks from now on. Either you follow US diktats or you get your precious NS1 & NS2 pipelines bombed

US can’t afford to take a firm position on that region right now. One wrong “firm position” and they’re done.

Yeah, that’s somewhat the point of the whole operation I think.

The US is now on the backfoot in multiple domains and regions, a situation which is only going to increase in complexity. They are being stretched in all directions.

All the new poles in the multipolar world are jostling for position, game of thrones style, before the emperor dies.

Yes and specifically in the Middle East it looks like the US is completely screwed. UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey are all screwing with the US and they can’t do shit. Normally the US would want to screw with them back by supporting their enemies but in this case it’s impossible for the US to support Iran because then Israel is gone.

Apparently one of the biggest winners from this is actually the body bag suppliers because they get to sell plus sized bags. Bodies that are too fat no longer fit inside morgue freezers, they are kept in the bag left on the rack in a walk in cooler room instead. Less expensive than tearing out the wall and getting a new freezer unit.

Another market is replacing flat surfaced trolly with U shaped ones because the fat was going over the sides

Fat people were sinking the boats and causing long delays at "It's a Small World" at Disney, so they had to close the ride and dig deeper and wider channels.

Here we go again. The desperation is setting in, they know that Ukraine is collapsing och they desperately need a false flag for NATO to enter this war.

According to six unnamed people?!

Biden administration officials have assessed that Russian President Vladimir Putin may use chemical weapons in Ukraine first before resorting to a nuclear confrontation with NATO if his troops continue to lose ground.

The concerns, according to six people with knowledge of the matter, come amid a push by the administration to ensure allies are prepared for such an event. The people, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive, internal deliberations, include U.S. and Defense Department officials.
