It sure doesn’t seem like anyone in US intelligence is taking into consideration the fact that they have multiple major military debacles/proxy wars going on rn and are winning exactly zero of them. There’s never been a worse time to throw in with the US. I guess in their heads they’ve just written it all off as not being the US’ fault and just assume everybody else will believe that too.
