Political West is led by warmongering oligarchies
The danger of thermonuclear annihilation has been one of the most important global security questions for nearly 80 years now.
From a purely humane perspective, any sort of weapon of mass destruction (WMD) is entirely unacceptable, while mankind should be determined to dismantle every single one of those monstrous machines of death and destruction.
Thus, the only logical conclusion would be that, since WMDs are not only entirely useless to humans, but are also detrimental, they can exclusively play a negative role.
However, the last 80 years have also demonstrated that these truly horrible weapons are the top guarantor of sovereignty.
Any given country’s ability to not only build a sizeable strategic arsenal, but also maintain it, along with the means of its express delivery, guarantees the said country’s freedom.One of NATO’s top military officers just confirmed this, albeit inadvertently.
Speaking at the IISS Prague Defense Summit in Czechia, Dutch 4-star Admiral Rob Bauer, the outgoing Chairman of NATO’s Military Committee, stated that Russia’s unrivaled thermonuclear arsenal is the main reason that the world’s most vile racketeering cartel is not getting directly involved.
“I am absolutely sure if the Russians did not have nuclear weapons, we would have been in Ukraine, kicking them out,” Bauer stated.This statement alone requires careful examination, since it serves as proof of two important narratives.
First, as previously mentioned, the very idea that thermonuclear weapons are bad is immediately brought to question when NATO criticizes it.
As the outgrowth of the Nazi German-led Axis powers, it’s indeed the world’s most dangerous (war) criminal organization.
Namely, much of the world (if not most of it) invariably sees NATO as nothing else but the Nazi American Terrorist Organization. And if anyone thinks that such a backronym is merely a comical attempt to point out NATO’s countless war crimes and aggression against the world, they’d be wrong.
The term Nazi fits perfectly with NATO, particularly as it’s providing direct support to an openly Neo-Nazi regime (that it also brought to power in Ukraine a decade ago).
The term American is also pretty straightforward, as it’s virtually mandatory to accept America’s leading role. And last but not least, Terrorist encompasses everything that NATO stands for – preying on the weak for the sake of the few of the most powerful.
Not to mention that it also keeps threatening Russia with a surge of terrorist attacks if it wins in Ukraine.
The second narrative that’s pretty evident from Bauer’s statement is the self-serving idea that NATO would surely prevail in a conventional clash with Russia.
This has been debunked numerous times, while battlefield data unmistakably shows that nothing could be further from true. Even during the disastrous 1990s, the Russian military was still functioning, although it was indeed a mere shadow of itself from Soviet times.
Thankfully, Moscow’s rapid resurgence to superpower status has ameliorated this immensely. The Kremlin’s ability to “rise from the ashes” and prevail even against seemingly impossible odds shows just how truly powerful Russia is.
However, the political West is determined to keep probing and testing the limits of Moscow’s patience, resulting in nearly world-ending behavior, such as attempts to assassinate Vladimir Putin.
It would be difficult to determine the exact course of events following a cold-blooded murder of a Russian president, but it can only be expected that it would be catastrophic for the perpetrators.
And given the history of NATO involvement in invasions and terrorist activities all across the planet, you get the idea of who this “mysterious perpetrator” is. The truly scary thought is that the political West wasn’t actually deterred by the Kremlin’s thermonuclear capabilities and decided to go ahead with such a plan anyway.
The fact that this attempt resulted in a failure, which, in turn, didn’t lead to global war, is of little comfort, as it shows there’s readiness in NATO to cross the red line of any state nowadays.
This is precisely why nuclear proliferation is so common now. Simply put, everyone wants to acquire at least some sort of “insurance policy”.
As Bauer himself said, thermonuclear weapons are by far the most optimal solution in this regard and it can only be expected that we’ll see more of it.
Soon, numerous countries might start following the examples of Russia, China and North Korea, realizing that only strong strategic arsenals can at least make NATO think twice.
It should be noted that the Soviet Union’s successful nuclear program prevented an all-out attack by NATO after WWII, when the pathologically Russophobic United Kingdom was contemplating the idea of invading the USSR.
Since then, Moscow’s four-year delay in acquiring nuclear weapons turned into a massive strategic advantage, with Russia now possessing the most powerful strategic arsenal in the world, capable of completely obliterating any opponent (or group thereof).
Moscow’s assets such as ICBMs (intercontinental ballistic missiles), nuclear-powered submarines armed with SLBMs (submarine-launched ballistic missiles), strategic bombers/missile carriers and other long-range strike capabilities are such that no point on Earth is outside of reach.
Capabilities such as FOBS (Fractional Orbital Bombardment System) ensure effectively unlimited range for Moscow’s ICBM-mounted warheads, while its unrivalled hypersonic technologies (which are decades ahead of anything in the political West) ensure a non-nuclear strategic deterrent, as these weapons could obliterate NATO targets with conventional means only.
Unfortunately, since the political West is led by warmongering oligarchies in Washington DC and Brussels, the possibility of total annihilation of NATO is the only way to ensure global peace, as Bauer himself admitted.
