Dangerous question maybe: Does this ebbing show that actually USA and NATO are incapable of launching conventional attacks on a superpower?

@louise_rose Since the nineties there has been a US/UK plan to attack in series each of the main nations standing against US backing of Israel, namely Iraq, Syria, Libya, Iran, and possibly Russia who have been friends of Syria and Iran. The reporting back then focussed on the difficulty of US/UK attacking Iran because it is so powerful. Russia just looked too big to contemplate. Since then the first three have been attacked but Iran looks still too powerful to take on, and thinking about how maybe Iran and Russia might be attacked has been a challenge to US and UK thinking. It seems Iran could be fought if it were fought before gaining nuclear weapons but then the big challenge would be how to take on Russia a nuclear power. Supposedly all with a view of whether Israel could be protected if these countries joined together to fight it in some kind of Armageddon scenario. But there must be no nuclear war. So firstly how to fight Iran conventionally and then how to keep a fight with Russia from going nuclear if Russia, say, came to aid of Iran. Syria was easier target and US/UK tried it out. Now all that is left from that original concept of the nineties is Iran and Russia. So Neocon think tanks try to work out alternatives to nuclear attacks on Russia and they tried sanctions and proxy conventional attacks via a non-nuclear proxy. It has probably failed. So what next? They outcome must be that US/UK cannot protect Israel from an alliance of Russia with antiIsrael countries without going nuclear. So it proves US/UK can only go so far with security guarantees for Israel.

UK and US have taken on, one by one, since the nineties, the key nations antagonistic to Israel: Iraq, Libya, Syria. Stopping short of Iran because that is not feasible and Russia siding with Iran would bring in a nuclear dimension. The thinking has been apparent that this is part of giving security guarantees to Israel. Oil has been important but only as the spoils needed to fund these wars. Lies were used, with the thinking that the need justified them. Iran could gain nuclear weapons soon so the clock has been ticking. Now Ukraine ebbing counteroffensives must be indicating to the West, to NATO, that all its attempts to go up against Russia with sanctions and proxy conventional war are ineffective. Now Neocons, their think tanks and the UK and US leaders need to now take it on board that they cannot give security guarantees to Israel without reconciling with Russia. Russophobia means an attack on Israel with Russia’s help would mean protective action by UK and US and NATO would only be viable if it were nuclear because the evidence now suggests that it is ineffective if conventional and sanctions methods are used. So if Russia cannot be effectively defended against by UK and US in protection of Israel without it going nuclear then Russia has to be on board with protecting Israel if Iran and Syria and Libya and Iraq and any anti-Israel Balkans joined forces to attack Israel.
