President Joe Biden is moving to engage the United States in a war with Russia, possibly starting World War III, which could result in a globally devastating nuclear missile exchange.
The mentally incapacitated president authorized Ukraine to use U.S. missiles on targets some 200 miles from inside Russia.
In March, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that if the West continued to increase its involvement in the war, Russia would use nuclear weapons in the war with Ukraine and possibly against the West as well.
Ukraine has been at war with Russia since it invaded in February 2022 following a U.S.-backed coup in 2014, and the number of NATO members near Russia's border continues to grow. As the late American journalist Gonzalo Lira explained, Ukraine has lost at least half its population to the war. Ukraine's corrupt Zelenskyy government arrested Lila as he tried to flee the country and then killed him in prison with medical neglect. Lila had warned that Ukraine could not defeat Russia and commit national suicide needlessly.
escalation of war
Now, in a move that could take the United States into direct war with Russia, President-elect Trump has until January 20th to deal with it, while Biden has ordered Ukraine to attack Russia with American missiles. He said there was a possibility of an attack.
“These weapons will likely initially be used against Russian and North Korean forces to defend Ukrainian forces in Russia's western Kursk region,” officials said in an article published yesterday in the New York Times. He told the paper:
Biden's decision is a major change in US policy. The choice has divided his advisers, and his replacement comes two months before President-elect Donald J. Trump takes office, who has vowed to limit further aid to Ukraine.
Authorizing Ukraine to use long-range missiles known as Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) was in response to Russia's sudden decision to involve North Korean forces in the fight, officials said. Ta.
To make matters worse, Ukrainian dictator Volodomyr Zelenskiy said he would communicate with missiles, not words.
“'Today, many media outlets are talking about the fact that we have received permission to take appropriate action,' he told Ukrainians in an evening address,” the Times reported. “But the blow is not given in words. Such things are not made public. The rocket will speak for itself.”
This is not the first time Mr. Biden has escalated US involvement in a war. In 2023, a leaked video showed US special forces operating in the country.
And in May, Biden said Ukraine could use short-range missiles against Russia “directly across the border,” the Times reported.
But those missiles only travel 50 miles. ATACMS can attack targets 290 miles away.
The Times continued:
Officials said they do not expect the shift to fundamentally change the course of the war, but one purpose of the policy shift is to recognize that their military is vulnerable to North Korea and to avoid doing so. He said it sends a message that this should not be done. Please send more.
Officials say Ukrainian forces are likely to first use the missiles against Russian and North Korean forces threatening Ukrainian forces in Kursk, but Biden could authorize their use elsewhere. said.
In response to well-meaning administration officials worried that Putin might retaliate against the United States or NATO, “U.S. officials said they believed those concerns were exaggerated.”
Putin's threat
In May, President Putin again said that if the United States escalates its participation in the war, it may use nuclear weapons.
“President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that Russia is prepared to use nuclear weapons if its sovereignty or independence is threatened, issuing another frank warning to the West just days before the election, and Putin added six more It is now almost certain that he will secure a term in office for 2020.” The Associated Press reported:
The Russian leader has repeatedly spoken of his readiness to use nuclear weapons since launching a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. The latest such threat was expressed in last month's State of the Nation Address. He warned Western countries that deepening involvement in the fighting in Ukraine risked nuclear war.
But Putin also said Biden was too smart a politician to escalate the issue.
Still, “Putin's comments appeared to be a message to the West that he was prepared to use any means necessary to protect its interests in Ukraine,” the Associated Press continued.
He said that in line with the country's security principles, the Russian government is ready to use nuclear weapons in the event of a threat to “the existence of the Russian state, the sovereignty and independence of our country.”
“Everything written in our strategy remains unchanged,” he said.
The paper said that foreign policy hawks in the administration said that “Mr. Biden and his advisers are too easily intimidated by Mr. Putin's hostile rhetoric, and the administration's gradual approach to arms deliveries to Ukrainians is “They say they are at a disadvantage on the battlefield,” he said.
The Times continued:
Supporters of Biden's approach say it has largely succeeded in avoiding a violent response from Russia.
Allowing long-range attacks on Russian territory by American missiles could change that equation.
That's true, but it could also provoke Putin to attack Ukraine and some NATO countries with nuclear weapons.
Who would win in a nuclear war?
Frighteningly, some analysts are discussing victory in nuclear war.
Writing in the Wall Street Journal in April 2022, shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine, Seth Cropsey of the Yorktown Institute argued that the United States could “win a nuclear war,” as the title of his opinion piece states. We should show it.”
“The reality is that if the United States does not prepare to win a nuclear war, we risk losing one,” he said, adding, “We need to recalibrate our strategic logic toward the nuclear environment.” .
“Nuclear war should never take place,” he continued.
But the Kremlin appears willing to fight at least a limited number of them. If the United States shows that it is not willing to use nuclear weapons, the possibility that the Kremlin will do so becomes dangerously real. ”
Indeed, with NATO and the US involved in Ukraine, the Kremlin's use of nuclear weapons is becoming a “dangerous reality”, with Ukraine now using US-provided missiles to strike almost 200 miles inside Russia. He is threatening to do so.
In the event of a similar threat to the United States located within Mexico, missiles could strike major cities such as Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Antonio, San Diego, and Tucson.
