Many commentators, including Alastair Crooke whom I respect, review operations in Ukraine as part of the war with Russia. That war was over a long time ago. What is happening now is post-war planning. Many post-War2 American leaders condemned Britain as leaving behind a mess of ethnic conflicts that could last a hundred years or more.
Many atrocities committed by Ukraine have no military purpose whatsoever. Clearly their intention is to leave hatred and mistrust after the formal ending of hostilities. Blinded by hatred, the Ukrainian leadership listen to the serpents silver voice.
It smells as if the US has adopted the British trade mark, perhaps under tutelage of British security planners.
