The US is in a catch 22 situation. Let's admit it. They are unable to prosecute Donald Trump and many congressmen who together orchestrated the Jan 6 attacks on Capitol Hill let alone go after Putler who has the biggest Nuclear arsenal. The majority of Americans don't want to get involved in any more war and most supported the US withdrawal of the Afghan war. But, the US media, both left and right, are pushing for war. Hence, Biden is hiding behind NATO. This year's house election is crucial for the US. If Democrats lose, they ain't winning 2024. Madman Trump or his lackey will return to the white house and mess up the world again. So as long as the US is unable to make a decision, this was war will prolong and Putler couldn't have chosen a better time which is now and he will only look and try to capitalize as much as possible. Only European countries can do something about this war. It's sad but Putler is in a better position today but I do see him dying in 2022 itself. Either he is gonna do a Hitler or get assassinated or die like an Osama Bin laden. But the damage he would have done would be ireversible.
