The U.S. empire is getting ready to cut its losses in Ukraine. This is something I’ve been expecting for a while as someone who’s watching the situation from outside the anti-Russian propaganda bubble, but additional signs of such a development have lately appeared. Signs which indicate how messy the process is going to be. The fact is that the U.S. bloc has committed itself to backing a regime which has committed gargantuan, mass trauma-inducing war crimes, and so many within the pro-imperialist sphere will never want to admit these atrocities have happened. So when Washington decides to forsake the Zelensky regime due to its becoming too much of a liability, a bitter split could emerge within the empire’s intellectual (or even political and military) ranks.
No, the next conflict the US will start after they fail with Taiwan will be a war with Iran via the US’s Zionist apartheid regime proxy in the region. The US will be kicked out of Syria and Iraq and then they will launch this last desperate bid to stay retain power in the middle east and keep the region in chaos.
This too will fail and then they will pivot to Latin America, likely to Nicaragua or Venezuela which will by then be well armed and protected by Russia and economically prospering with the help of China’s BRI, and so the US will fail there too. The empire cannot win these conflicts, its decline is too advanced.
It is also likely we will see uprisings and civil conflicts in the US itself, with the state’s security forces cracking down brutally on the unrest while openly taking the side of fascist paramilitaries against indigenous, black, and leftist movements. Expect military gear and tactics used against the US’s own population.
There will probably be pogroms and other atrocities.
