Does NATO have the juice for all these projects? Ukraine, Palestine, Syria, Georgia, and then everything else everywhere else?
Clearly yes. Palestine is a long-running project. All they have to do there is run diplomatic interference. Even if they run out of weapons to send the zionists they can just declare a cease-fire and peace and come back to continuing the genocide in a year or three. Syria has matured proxy forces of islamist pawns so that's not an issue and Georgia is CIA leading indoctrinated liberals to destroy their country.
As to people claiming they're going all in. This isn't anything special, it's just a lot of things burning at once. Yes they probably pushed the Georgia thing a bit earlier than was ideal but they need to distract Russia and create more trouble there so in it goes. And if they succeed in Georgia and Russia intervenes, you can bet the west will use that as justification for sending their own troops into Ukraine to enforce an armistice. If the color revolution fails (hope it does) they'll have some other reason.
The west is still extremely dangerous and strong. The world is full of both delusional liberal who will throw themselves and their country on a pyre for "western liberal values" as well as extremist alienated saps who can be sucked into religious/ethnic terrorist movements. And with dominance of the media landscape, dominance of online spaces and major online companies as well as a mature international communications spying and infiltration apparatus in the eyes agreements they have a lot of abilities.
China's made a lot of smart moves but their best one by far I think was the great firewall.
i mean they just send money, what's to lose
If they are scared of failure I bet they dismiss it as "better to go down swinging."
it really is starting to feel like they're just going all in with all their proxy projects in a gamble to contain China or any sort of alternative hegemony in the world.
