US proxies causing trouble for Russian allies and pressing forward the plans to destabilize the region as a pretext for greater-"israel" and solidifying their grip on the key part of the chessboard.

This is why I laugh at talks of Russia opening up another front against the US led order in retaliation for potential NATO troops pouring over into Ukraine as "peacekeepers". The US has already set so many fires around Russia and its allies, this and Georgia's on-going color revolution attempt, it's stretching itself and doesn't have the means to open another front. The US may not have Russia's production capacity for artillery but they don't necessarily need it when they can keep them bogged down with insurgent extremist proxies, color revolutions, etc which are all force multipliers.

The US is fully leveraging asymmetrical warfare to destabilize and encircle opponents. Mark my words, when Taiwan pops off there is a decent chance something else around China will also go off like an extremist uprising in Pakistan. That's one of my worries. The US sponsoring extremist islamist puppets in Pakistan to seize nuclear weapons and use them on China with enough distance and plausible deniability that they can get away with it or think they can at which point the Chinese have little they can do aside from nuking Japan or occupied Korea and even both of those risks escalation and lock-in to nuclear annihilation.
