The military industrial complexes of Russia and the United States (and increasingly so European nations) are business partners. They scare each other's populases enough to make their governments fund more military shit. Julian Assange had it right "the goal is an endless war, not a successful war." There is no big WW3 coming.

Or rather, WW3 looks like we have already seen. Interminable conflicts in many theaters. Not unlike the conflicts described in 1984. Orwell wasn't wrong about the future of war. I do not, however, rule out the possibility of it escalating to something worse.
well, Israel has already shown that they do not want peace by continuing to bomb Gaza and trying to make everyone in that place look like pure heartless monsters.

The Russian military-industrial complex is fully state-controlled (e.g., via Rostec)—in stark contrast to the privately owned and publicly traded companies in the US/EU. Hardly business partners; more like geopolitical rivals. Assange was right about endless wars, but the structures differ fundamentally.

I talked to a Ukrainian refuge last night, and today my heart is heavy. It's a meat grinder and a fiat printer. Nothing is what it seems. For anybody who has never watched this before, you should:

You jumped from intentions to determinism... Just because they don't an out of control war, doesn't mean they can maintain that balance.
