And I say you’re simply wrong I have no problem with that. Disagreeing about the analysis is okay. The reductionist dismissal that I was doing a moral argument, I could do without. I will not either reject the possibility of your conjectured outcome. However, I do find your analysis missing on the part of Europe having no enemies. The nightmare scenario for the European elite is not solely Russian aggression, but getting tagged teamed by both Russia ans the US. The crux of the issue is this: The US is threatening explicit subjugation if we do not play ball, and increasing vassalization if we do. The contradiction/compromise of NATO is shifting. The US needs and demands more from its vassals, I agree, but the vassals are eyeing an opportunity to reposition themselves in the emerging new world order.
