The West has already lost, because flabby empty-headed westerners are more concerned about cramming endless quantities of slop down their throats while gawping at mindless entertainments than about some far-away war in a place they're too ignorant to locate on a map. Putin, meanwhile, is in a struggle for personal survival and will sacrifice millions of Russians (and North Koreans) if necessary to retain his hold on power. Meanwhile we doze on, imagining that the empty shell NATO will protect us - because we can't be bothered to learn that NATO is a hollow joke now that the creature Trump has made it clear the USA no longer regards NATO as a commitment, while European NATO members are incapable of defending a fish-and-chip shop thanks to 30 years of brainless defense cuts.
