The ambitions of the US foreign policy élite to beat both Russia and China is already creating an internal war among the US Neocons.
The Ukraine war is sucking the US dry of weapons, and the US is getting little to nowhere in its frail attempts to restock supplies sent to Ukraine. See this.

This already pushes some Neocons to panic for a ceasefire to close down the Ukraine engagement – just in order to save remaining arms supplies for conflict with China?
Meanwhile, the Pentagon and the defense industry are looking at the next major national security challenge: deterring, and if necessary, fighting, China in the Indo-Pacific region. See this.
That panic in parts of the Neocon community is already surfacing in the Council of Foreign Relations of the USA. On 13 April 2023, none less than Richard Haass, the President of the Council on Foreign Relations together with Charles Kupchan were overtly anxious to argue for a Ukrainian ceasefire. Suddenly comparing what they want with what they can, this faction among the Neocons is suddenly scared and looks for the exit. See this.
On 24 April 2023, other Neocons pushed back against Haass’ and Kupchan’s heretic idea of a ceasefire with Russia. A hard-core faction of the Neocons obviously keeps ignoring facts and insists on nothing less than a complete defeat of Russia – even as the West is running out of weapons to fight with. See this.

The futility of trying to dominate the globe is creating an infight – wrecking the nerves of the Neocons.

Why should we being told the TRUTH about all of this?
Come on let’s just say it out loud, the real reason that it’s failing is graft. Industrial military complex has the world’s largest amount of lobbyists and about 35 cents of every dollar goes to real weaponry.
IKR. Typical Anglo bullshit. When it’s anyone else the Anglos will call it A bribe but when it’s them, they call it lobbying. Haha, these “people” are a joke.
Neocohen sickness is the disease that finally laid the evil and demented Uncle Sammy low. Karma is so beautiful. It always catches up and the filthy vipers’ nest in apartheid, occupied Palestine will be next.

Neo-Cons, or rather Neo-Straussians as they should really be called, are bat-shit crazy ideologues. They are not realists. They live in a fantasy world, where they think they can force changes on the world they want, just because they want them so much. There is a messianic and cult like delusion to their cabal. At this point, they have sunk over US $180 billion into Ukraine, and yet failed in their primary strategic goal – to foment such unfavorable conditions of conflict for Russia, as to stir up regime change within. That is their standard and overly simplistic plan, with literally no other back-up plan (same plan as for Syria, etc). But beyond that, they also really don’t care about the destructive consequences of their actions in the real world. This is classic sociopath mindset – magical thinking about outcomes, based on grandiose self delusions of omnipotence, combined with zero empathy for others, and the whole-scale damage their actions cause to other’s lives and societies.
