I thought the most interesting part of the text was unrelated to the war:
"American society(...) can only understand the world as projections of the country’s own domestic neuroses. (...) Who is the PoC? Who is the Nazi?"
I've recently realized how much of the discourse around the word HAS to be trapped within terms the Americans can understand. Every experience that is not translated to Americana is 'confusing' or 'irrelevant'. Much like the Author himself points, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party has no idea what to say about a victory of an extremist group against the American Military-Industrial complex to the loss of minorities who themselves hate or dislike American progressivism.
