Note in this closing quote that Jermyn appears to be thinking in terms of what I describe as a refusal to acknowledge reality for ideological reasons—ideological reasons that somehow trump the simple balance of power calculation: “Accept geopolitical realities … rather than … cling to our failed political narrative.” Both imply that the political leaderships driving the wars are unaware of the real balance of power and are driven by political narratives that are causing them to embark on losing wars. The US may be the Queen, the EU the Rook, Japan the Bishop, South Korea the Knight etc… the Money Powers are the subject moving the pieces, and are willing to sacrifice any piece including the Queen to win.
