Why do you think the US and its European vassals have resorted to ridiculous economic sanctions that are backfiring quite magnificently?

You would expect the Western countries to avoid war with Russia and China at all costs if they knew they couldn't win and actually cared about preserving the illusion of their power (or getting back to having actual power). Anyone could have predicted that the sanctions were going to backfire, and some did. Therefore, the elites knew it too. They're getting us into war with Russia because we will lose. Just another thing the Jews are doing to collapse the West, in addition to flooding our borders with niggers, feeding us goyslop, turning women into sluts, and men into fags, etc.
