Arguably the closest the world has been to a full-scale nuclear war in our lifetimes, as Michael Snyder warns in this new story over at the Economic Collapse Blog, this seemingly endless cycle of 'retaliation' now going on between the US/NATO and Russia will ultimately lead to nuclear war.:
The United States and Russia both keep raising the stakes, and if we keep repeating this cycle it will end with a nuclear war that could ultimately result in billions of deaths. Unfortunately, leaders on both sides do not seem interested in peace at this point.
The votes that Russia just conducted in four disputed territories were inevitably going to raise tensions even higher. Of course the western powers have been greatly escalating matters themselves. Over the past couple of months, NATO has gotten far more deeply involved in the conflict in Ukraine, and now the war is starting to spread beyond Ukrainian borders.
With the destruction of the Nord Stream Pipelines clearly a part of that 'war' Snyder speaks of and that sabotage happening at a time when Vladimir Putin is increasingly talking of using nukes in Ukraine while the Biden cabal warns Putin of unimaginable consequences for doing so, this dance of madness we're now witnessing on both sides of the aisle will only have quite imaginable consequences for billions of people as in nuclear war, there will be no 'winners' when it comes to 'humanity'.
Yet as Zero Hedge points out in this new story titled "Globalists Are Marching Us Relentlessly Toward Nuclear Armageddon Warns Former Senator," according to a retired US Marine Colonel who was also a Virginia state Senator, two huge new developments are moving us closer to nuclear war. From that story.:
Fears of nuclear war are increasing across the West as Russia mobilizes hundreds of thousands of troops and declares annexation of parts of Ukraine. Meanwhile, President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukraine is applying for membership in NATO. These two developments could be the most significant escalation since the war's start.
Today's developments are a sobering reminder that nuclear war threats are mounting. Retired Virginia State Senator and retired Marine Col. Richard Black addressed members of the US Congress in an open letter on Tuesday about "globalists are marching us relentlessly toward this nuclear Armageddon."
Black pointed out:
There would have been no war had we not overthrown the democratically-elected government of Ukraine by violently ousting President Yanukovych in 2014. We promoted war by flooding Ukraine with massive arms shipments afterwards.
The former senator said, "the US could have achieved peace by simply pressing Ukraine to implement the 2014 Minsk Peace Agreements which it had signed, establishing a clear framework for settling outstanding issues peacefully. Ukraine promised to implement the Minsk agreements, but chose instead to make war on the Donbass for the next seven years."
He said NATO could've sought peace but chose war instead.
NATO had ample opportunity for peace but deliberately chose war. The US realized that, with Russia's back to the wall, it would have no choice to but to attack. In 2007, US Ambassador to Russia William Burns pointedly warned that movement toward absorbing Ukraine into NATO might well trigger war between Ukraine and Russia. Nonetheless, the Obama administration overthrew the Ukrainian president and flooded in weapons, knowing that doing so would trigger war.
Black said billionaire elites who have an interest in the region are making "war profits even if it means gambling the lives of hundreds of millions of people across the globe."
"Should we annihilate the world's population to intervene in a border war where the US has no vital national interest?" the former senator asked.
Black called for an immediate end to this war by making Ukraine a neutral, non-aligned state, "just as we did during the Cold War with Austria in 1955."
But it appears the former senator's plea to avoid further conflict went unheard after Zelensky's declared intent to apply for expedited NATO membership as President Putin proclaimed the annexation of 15% of Ukraine.
Based on Article 5, any acceptance of Ukraine into NATO would automatically trigger a Russia-West world war(WWIII).
