Has anyone noticed a shift in tone on Ukraine war reporting? I wonder if the West is looking to prime people for a way out. All of a sudden we might find it IS a humanitarian crisis after all.

The US is probably looking to pull out, and are preparing their people for it. Biden's reelection probably depends on it.
If the war is not resolved by then, or he manages to get out of the conflict without tarnishing public opinion for him, it will be something that will greatly hinder his chances of reelecting.
Presidental reelection in USA being based on peace and not new war would be something not seen often.
They'll still need a new war
They'll fund and man ECOWAS with whatever's left of their stock to try keep Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, and now Gabon from rippling out through the rest of Africa; because while they're posturing and blowing hot wind at China, everyone knows that we're a paper tiger that's not prepared for a fight with a nation that dwarfs us near three men to one, if the population data I'm remembering is accurate. When presented with two boulders, yankees will always pick the smaller one, then swagger around afterwards like they did something.
They only know how to fight wars when its against militaries a fraction of the size, technology, ordinance, and support, with a fraction of a fraction of the money. They like to bully the vulnerable, not pick a fair fight. Cowardly as always.
Funny you mention that, 'cause that's not even the case! tl;dr of the link, that's just ONE accounting of a crooked US war simulation where a lower tech-level OPFOR should've kicked the shit out of Amerikan forces only for the simulation runners to either forbid movements of OPFOR against Amerikan movements, or just unkill or undestroy targets that OPFOR took all of about ten minutes to TPK.
This has happened BEFORE MC'02 and AFTER it. Basically, there's a reason Amerika's gotten its ass repeatedly kicked by rice farmers, shepherds, and poppy pickers.
It's not so much about peace. USians are starting to get real angry that so much money is spent on Ukraine, especially after the debacle of the Maui wildfires.
Trump's promises of peace are tracting for exactly this reason.
