My theory is that Russia, Hamas, China etc. aren’t really trying to conquer and win these wars. They are getting in tactical stalemates to deplete the US military and the dollar.
Correct. They know it's just a matter of time until the U.S. economy implodes. It's precisely the reason that Putin has adopted the defensive posture that he has in spite of his more hardline generals protesting to the contrary (they'd like him to simply storm west to Kiev and get it over with militarily). Putin has a degree in economics and knows that ultimately what gives the United States it's power and control over the world is the dollar. Once it's thoroughly devalued and we end up in new depression territory we simply won't be able to maintain our armament supplies to Ukraine.
China is also playing the long game and waiting for the other shoe to drop before making any overt moves themselves. This is how we won the Cold War. We simply outperformed the Soviets economically until they could no longer sustain their control and they fell apart internally.
Yes very good point here. People need to understand that these are all BRICS nations who will no longer be using the dollar. What happens when these countries start dumping treasuries that we can't pay back because we are at war with them?

They learned much from this lesson.
