That the West is not united in prosecuting the war on Russia isn’t exactly news. It’s been a fact of life for decades that, without America, the Western military alliance is not up to the task of resisting, much less confronting, Russia. Not that Russia, with more limited force projection available than in the old Soviet days, is interested in military conflict in general. It’s taken years of prodding and poking to get a military rise out of Russia, and the scope of that rise is strictly limited. At this point. In the meantime, the collective West has discovered that its militaries—including the US military—are simply not equipped for full scale conventional warfare. Russia is, although war has been a last resort for Russia, forced by the existential threat of NATO imminent basing of strategic forces in Ukraine as well as in Poland.
