The article makes no argument for why the US is more of a threat than other states or non-state actors. Just that it's bad. For sure, it's bad. Really bad.
But the biggest threat to world peace? Get real.
The article itself clearly acknowledges that the west is generally still simpatico. So is it the US that's the threat, or is it Europe and Australia too?
This conflict is challenging because it's a couple of bad guys shooting missiles at third bad guy, who then shoots back at the first bad guy and the other bad guy's bases located in yet more bad guy countries.
Ukraine is maybe less challenging. Dude was just standing there when Putin decided he wanted to steal a chunk of a sovereign nation. It's not a CIA Op.
