Which "they" are you referring to?
Victoria Nuland giving out sandwiches (literally) in Kyiv is not the same as unmarked Russian special forces opening police arsenals and giving out weapons to criminals in Slovyansk.
Also, my initial point wasn't about Ukraine which served it part already - there's almost nothing left to plunder.
I wanted to leave a prediction that in 2021-2022 there will be a new war because USA desperately needs it. For many reasons, mostly economical. I've also named next most probable targets.
Just to say "I said so" when it'll happen and point to the original comment.
I wanted to leave a prediction about approaching war. There will be an attack by USA. What still puzzles me is what would be the casus belli because after this year not many people outside of US believe in democracy in US. So, the usual argument: "We bomb X to bring democracy!" will hardly work.
Maybe there would be some kind of provocation, similar to 9/11. "Russia did it. We found a Russian passport where it happened!"
I'm pretty sure USA will start a new war in 2021-2022. Most probable targets are Iran, Saudi Arabia, Russia.
Russia is the most lucrative target but because of nuclear weapon, most likely more and more protests would be organized to attempt to destroy the country from inside, like they did in Ukraine in 2014.
If this strategy fail or is taking too long time, Iran or Saudi Arabia should be prepared. Saudi Arabia is an ally but it's so rich in resources, that there will be some Casus Belli found.
Besides there's no longer even a need for even remotely plausible explanation to start plundering other country. Facebook, YouTube and Twitter will explain it all and block all the discontent.
