“The Empire’s Last Stand: The West’s Descent into Delusion and the Battle for a Multipolar World” states that Western foreign policy is driven by irrational hysteria, fueled by psychological and historical factors rather than logic – leading to disastrous decisions like the Iraq War and escalating tensions with Russia.
