Well in germany they sure never stopped but the have plenty of help from the media and a lot of paid journalist. Latest example is to put the bombing of Nordstream on the Urkains using a small stupid boat that cannot even carry all equiment.
Well as far as I understand the only goal is to create more dollars at home for the military industrial financial complex, sometimes a few idiots are sent overseas to engage in fighting sometimes not. But that is not important to the current ruling class. All that matters is the more dollars from the ever rising budget deficit find their way into their pockets. If no further positiv cash flow is to be expected they pull out like in Afganistan. Leaving the willing idiots who helped america to be slauthered. I expect nothing less in ukraine, but the complex still hopes it will survive the russian summer attack once all the mud in ukraine is hard again. We will see, what are your russian friends expecting?
