Yes, we the US and NATO, are indeed at war with Russia, per Thomas Fazi. Let's stop lying about it. That includes you, Eric Dreitser, at Counterpunch, whom I've called out before, and who is getting some pushback at Counterpunch itself.
And, per Fazi, is the US-NATO switcheroo on modern battle tanks going to be the last?
I doubt it. He's probably right that F-16s are next.
That said, even people aligned with the Nat-Sec Nutsacks™ warn against escalation. Fazi cites a piece by RAND as one example.
And, even the Old Gray Lady admits it, via a guest column by Christopher Caldwell.
The #BlueAnon sheeple, meanwhile, eat it up, thinking that they're continuing to "own the wingnuts," especially after Rethuglicans gained control of the House.
In reality? You're "owning" nobody but yourselves.

Related? Scott Dunn, a good read on this subject in general on Medium, says Ukraine is not "decisively" defeating Russia, then games out what would happen if we did do what Zelenskyy wants.
Back to Fazi to wrap up:
Ultimately, catastrophic scenarios aside, this is the most likely way in which the war will end — with a deal in which neither side loses or wins. Delaying this inevitable outcome simply means imposing more unnecessary death and destruction on Ukraine — and more economic suffering on a continent that is fast reaching breaking point.
There you go.
And, Eric Draitser, by promoting escalation, is part of the problem. He's arguably Counterpunch's biggest black eye in years if not decades.

And, both of these are worth more discussion than Sy Hersh's latest fabulism.
