The Empire's desperate strategy, if we can call it that, is to threaten the whole world with death in the hopes that the Rest of the World will capitulate rather than die fighting. And if not, well, if the US Empire can't own the world, no one will. The Opposing Powers' desperate strategy is to escalate as slowly as they can get away with, in the hopes that the Empire will implode into civil war before it can reach its goal.
US Civil war is not unlikely. The process of dividing the population against itself has been under way for some time now - neither side will accept the result of the next election, if the country even makes it that far.
My own desperate hope is that both of these artificially created sides can recognise their common enemy - the parasitic predatory class above us, not just in America, not just in the West, but over the whole planet. It emerges from our fearful selfish struggles of dominance and submission. Cooperative fearless solidarity nullifies it. We are out of practice on the latter, but I believe it is a natural human inclination, nonetheless.

You could be right. I don't have any better ideas.
Bingo! 💯 Great comment.
