Yeah, I too assumed this was essentially a multi-party standoff where everyone was waiting for someone else to blink. Meanwhile the US was trying to prolong it to take economic and military advantage.
Now I'm pretty certain there will be no end. In fact I suspect this conflict will role into another. A new wave of terror attacks and industrial sabotage will continue in Europe. Maybe even political assassinations. I hope I'm wrong, but I see the US treating Europe the same way they do the Middle East or increasingly Africa. :doomer:
Everyone I know looked at me funny when I said that the US was going to treat Europe like the Middle East and aim to completely destabilise all of it then reap whatever it can gain from opportunities that the chaos provides.
It is the only way that they know how to operate. Europe is now a major theatre for them and they are operating in it exactly as they operate everywhere else in the world.
I used to think that energy costs would cause Germany to fold in November
now a bunch of people are gonna freeze to death and European industry is going to get shredded

like Awoo said in the other thread
It's a feeling I've had growing for a while, but the pipeline attacks have forced it to crystalise.
As for Awoo's post in the other thread, she couldn't be more right as far as I'm concerned. And reading it now, she put it far my eloquently.
