Perhaps they had a chance back during the Obama days when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton proposed her amusing “Reset” in USA-Russia relations to the new Medvedew Presidency following Putin’s rotation to the seat of Prime Minister in March 2009. Had Washington been a bit more perceptive and offered serious alternatives, it is conceivable that Washington would today have a geopolitical isolation of their second major problem on the Eurasian Continent, namely, the Peoples’ Republic of China. Recently the US Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasia, Wess Mitchell, testified to the Senate where he candidly revealed the true reasons for current Washington and London campaigns and sanctions against Russia. It has nothing to do with faked allegations of US election interference; it has nothing to do with poorly-staged false flag poisoning of the Russian Skripals. It’s far more fundamental and takes us back to the era before the First World War more than a century ago.NEO

Chilling stuff! The Anglo -American Empire caused two world wars and now they are behind the third one.

Now Wess Mitchell’s admission that the US strategic policy is to “prevent domination of Eurasia by hostile powers” tells Russia and tells China, had they had any doubts, that the war is about a fundamental geopolitical contest to the end over who will dominate Eurasia—it’s legitimate inhabitants, centered around China and Russia, or an imperial Anglo-American axis that has been behind two world wars in the past century. Because Washington mismanaged the Russian “Reset” that was meant to draw Russia into the NATO web, Washington today is forced to wage a war on two fronts—China and Russia—war it is not prepared to win.

Right Germany got the blame for WWI, but the geopolitics of the time was similar to of now. Substitute Britain for the US in the lead up to WWI. Britain was the global empire of the time and it's policy was to prevent the rise of a central European power or alliance capable of eventually fielding a navy to challenge British control of the sea. Germany was a rising power, just like China today.
WWII resulted in large part from the British drive for a "peace settlement" that would prevent Germany's rise in the future. That created the conditions in Germany for the Nazi takeover.
A similar dynamic is not in play and MI6 is even a more active force than the CIA in many ways leading the charge today. It's the British Tory government, representing the British elite, that is demonizing Russia, now that Germany is US-occupied and a US vassal.
But the real prize is China, since in a short while China will become economically dominant and therefore also militarily dominate.
All this behind the facade of "spreading freedom and democracy" and saving the world from brutal and corrupt dictatorships to conceal and justify their rapacity.
“Britain was the global empire of the time and its policy was to prevent the rise of a central European power or alliance capable of eventually fielding a navy to challenge British control of the sea. Germany was a rising power, just like China today.”
I think that wars are caused by international situations (as you describe) and also by internal and domestic factors. The US and UK governments have always been corrupt. The US and UK societies have always been insane. The rich have always enslaved the rest. These internal factors are among the reasons for war.
Many people think that we asked for this. That is, before we incarnated, we planned to be in a world of conflict, just to experience what it’s like. This is how we spiritually evolve.
Maybe so. I don’t know.
