World Narrowly Escapes Nuclear Disaster 00:02:55
Hello everybody and thank you for tuning in to the weekly report.
Washington's Ukraine obsession is going to get us all killed.
Last week the world narrowly escaped likely nuclear destruction as the Biden administration considered Ukraine's request to allow U.S. missiles to strike deeply into Russian territory.
Russian President Vladimir Putin warned as the request was being considered that because these missiles could not be launched without the active participation of the U.S. military and NATO, Russia would consider itself in a state of war with both NATO and the U.S. should they be launched.
It was a Cuban missile crisis on a massive scale.
Thankfully, permission was reportedly not granted by Washington to hit deep inside Russia.
But as we have seen throughout this war, a weapon system is often first denied and then eventually granted to Washington's proxies in Kiev.
We should not rest easy even if nuclear war has been temporarily awarded.
Would missile strikes deep inside Russia win the war for Ukraine?
Not even the Pentagon thinks so.
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin himself said earlier this month that granting Ukraine's permission to launch missiles into Russia would not be a game changer in the two and a half year war.
Risking nuclear destruction for no tangible purpose?
Have these people gone crazy?
Even the game changers have changed little in this war.
How many times has the pro-war mainstream media told us a weapon system would be a game changer for Ukraine?
Remember, javelin missiles, leopard tanks, high Mars?
And as each one of them fails to turn the tide in Ukraine's war, the neocons and their friends in the media only demand more.
The fact is that Russia is winning the war despite hundreds of billions of dollars in the best weapon systems from the U.S. and NATO countries.
Each new shipment of increasingly sophisticated weapons does not produce battlefield victories for Ukraine.
It only produces more dead Ukrainian soldiers and more profits for the weapons manufacturers.
Even the mainstream media, which has solidly supported the Ukraine war, has begun to report on Ukraine's huge losses and hopeless situation.
Yet as more and more start to wake up about the disastrous proxy war, Washington only knows one direction when it comes to war.
Closer to the Brink 00:01:24
Forward.
Just over a week ago, the Pentagon announced another $250 million arms package for Ukraine.
Nobody believes that is going to reverse the steady gains made by Russia on the battlefield, but it will generate more profits for the U.S. arms manufacturers who are the real force behind our hyper-interventionist foreign policy.
The unlikely duo of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump said it best in a recent editorial in The Hill.
We cannot get any closer to the brink than this.
And for what?
To weaken Russia?
To control Ukraine's minerals?
No vital American interest is at stake.
To risk nuclear conflict for the sake of the neoconservative fantasy of global full spectrum dominance is madness.
They are right.
It is madness to risk the future of our country and our children and grandchildren for wars that have nothing to do with us and serve no national interest of the United States.
This is certainly true for the Ukraine war, and it is also true for the wars the United States is supporting in the Middle East.
When will this madness end?
When the people speak up and demand a change.
