I really hate the war drums getting louder and louder. It feels like every "western" country is trying to boost its army, which is in turn hungry for recruits. While people are not aligned at all. Hope this will just fizzle out.

I mean, even Australia? (mostly because of China).

Have you noticed it in your country?

It is certainly felt (though rather sporadically) in czech media, and I mean the direct czech army talking heads giving interviews saying we have to prepare for war and not be naive it won't come.

I'm hoping they're clearing the ground for a credit crunch, bail-in and recession, not a war.

But I wouldn't be entirely surprised by a bunch of coked-up Western politicians playing chicken with a nuclear Great Power and "defensively"/"accidentally" attacking it directly and then being all whiny and shocked-Pikachu-face when they "find out" shortly after.

Yep, hopefully it's nothing.
