    When has the US pulled out of a war because it was unpopular? I mean sure, after 20 years or so, but we’re at around 2? Also, this was has been massively profitable for US special interests and is a massive drain on Russia’s resources without costing American lives.

    Europe on the other hand is not really keen on letting Russia conquer territory in its direction, and that goes for both the populace and the governments.

    This stalemate is the de facto “new normal” for the West, and it’s not like the US is not used to fight forever wars. In the meantime, can Russia manufacture 5000 tanks every two years to keep up with the casualties?
