So, to be clear, the best strategic thinkers have in their wisdom decided that NATO’s plan to defend the countries that are now clearly and actively waging war against Russia is to hope that Russia doesn’t attack them. More proof that we have top men in charge. Top. Men.

"It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for them."

I’m reminded about the times in history when Russia has been underestimated.

While I have no doubt that Russia has absolutely no intention of invading or occupying any of the countries currently waging war on them (they don't need to in order to achieve all of their strategic goals) I am also aware that they currently field the best hypersonic guided missile in the world. And the idea that they won't respond at all is wishful thinking of the worst sort.

The israeli controlled West's overarching strategic plan for decades has been to "kick the dog until he bites" and they have been using it against little shithole 3rd world nations for years. But that was while the West, and it's military were in the ascendency. That is no longer true. And now they are faced with near-peer opponents who have the moral high ground.
