While the oil giants are making record profits thanks to energy prices rising, and European factories are firing because they can’t pay their gas and electricity bills, the US is sending energy to Europe with their ships loaded with expensive LNG.
Fearing that we do have not enough, now they are sending us another huge amount of energy: nuclear weapons. The United States will send 100 upgraded B61-12 nuclear bombs to Europe in December.
They will replace the previous ones in Italy, Germany, Belgium, Holland, and Turkey, and will likely be deployed against Russia in other NATO countries, such as Poland and Finland.
In its strategic documents, the Pentagon announces:
“We will use nuclear weapons to defend the vital interests of the United States and its allies.”
This constitutes a change of strategy that brings the world even closer to a nuclear war, which would cause the disappearance of the human species from the face of the Earth.
What will Russia do now?
Jean Toschi Marazzani Visconti asked Vladimir Kozin, a Political-Military Studies Center Russian expert, in an interview that took place in Moscow for Grandangolo on the national channel Byoblu TV.
Vladimir Kozin calls the current situation “much worse than it was during the Cold War, much more lethal and more dangerous“. He denounces the fact that the United States, after tearing up the INF Treaty, is deploying intermediate-range nuclear missiles in Europe close to Russia in addition to the new B61-12 nuclear bombs.
Kozin calls all this “madness“, he warns that, if it comes to a nuclear war,
“there will be no winners or losers, everyone will lose“.
He, therefore, warns that
“if our territory is attacked with nuclear weapons or weapons of mass destruction, such as chemical or biological, bacteriological and toxic, as well as nuclear weapons, we will respond“.
He was asked whether Russia will hit US nuclear bases in Europe, and he replies:
“Yes, that’s for sure. If we are attacked.”

Reviews
“This book is a ‘must’ resource – a richly documented and systematic diagnosis of the supremely pathological geo-strategic planning of US wars since ‘9-11’ against non-nuclear countries to seize their oil fields and resources under cover of ‘freedom and democracy’.”
–John McMurtry, Professor of Philosophy, Guelph University
“In a world where engineered, pre-emptive, or more fashionably “humanitarian” wars of aggression have become the norm, this challenging book may be our final wake-up call.”
-Denis Halliday, Former Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations
Michel Chossudovsky exposes the insanity of our privatized war machine. Iran is being targeted with nuclear weapons as part of a war agenda built on distortions and lies for the purpose of private profit. The real aims are oil, financial hegemony and global control. The price could be nuclear holocaust. When weapons become the hottest export of the world’s only superpower, and diplomats work as salesmen for the defense industry, the whole world is recklessly endangered. If we must have a military, it belongs entirely in the public sector. No one should profit from mass death and destruction.
–Ellen Brown, author of ‘Web of Debt’ and president of the Public Banking Institute
