Nobody is learning anything. Hardliners in three capitals are performing for their own choirs.

In the meantime, it’s a bonanza for American energy and defence interests.

I'm worried that war being "a bonanza for American energy and defence interests" is the thing people learned and a direct cause of this current war starting and it not cleanly ending.

The constant vaccilating between peace deal being done and being non-existent could just be put down to having a sociopathic liar with no guardrails in charge, but it could also be the same sociopath and his family activley profiting from the war via "insider trading" on the 180 degree turns in the reporting.

It will have to be in orde to finance your new integration of the IDF as a 'Permanent pillar of U. S. military modernization' as per section 224 of the 2027 NDAA.
