Americans who think themselves informed because they watch CNN, read the NY Times, and listen to NPR, regard my warnings about nuclear war as disinformation, even hysteria. They say that US government officials, such as Secretary of State Blinken and National Security advisor Jake Sullivan, are not stupid or insane.
Dear readers, you tell me how you can give permission for the US and NATO to fire missiles into Russia, especially when the Russian President has clearly stated it means the US and NATO are at war with Russia, and not be stupid and insane. That Blinken and Sullivan gave this permission in the face of Russia revising her war doctrine and permitting nuclear weapons to be used at a lower threshold indicates that the United States has a Secretary of State and National Security Advisor who are disconnected from reality.
All Americans, and perhaps the human population as a whole, might die as a result of these two utterly stupid men. Both of them represent the military/security complex and Israel. Neither is capable of thinking beyond the interest of the power and profit of the US military/security complex and Israel’s interest. The military/security complex and Israel are their only constituencies. The rest of the world is sacrificed to these two interests.
The utter stupidity of Blinken and Sullivan is matched by the American media, that sells itself for money. Yesterday one of the principal mouthpieces, the Washington Post, published what is without doubt the most ignorant editorial in recorded history. Those who wrote it said that it is not worth stopping the march to Armageddon if Trump makes a bad deal:
“If Trump leaves Ukraine dismembered, America will look weak and dictators will be emboldened.”
Examine this loaded language from the editors of the Washington Post and wonder how America can possibly survive. For the Washington Post editors, it is more important to keep the war going on the road to Armageddon than to “look weak.”
What dictators will be emboldened? Putin, elected overwhelmingly for a quarter of century by margins that not even Trump can achieve? For the Washington Post editors, “dictators” are those who will not subject their sovereignty to Washington’s hegemony. Who are these “dictators? They are the leaders of Russia, China, and Iran, the favorite manufactured-enemies of the Israel Lobby and the American military/security complex.
Dear readers, yesterday I informed you that the new intermediate range Russian missile– created only because President Trump in his first term voided the INF Treaty that President Reagan and President Gorbachev signed, a treaty that greatly reduced the chances of nuclear war –can be used to destroy in a very few minutes all US and NATO military assets in Europe and the Middle East without the use of nuclear warheads.
Why did President Trump make this incomprehensible mistake that shows a dangerous lack of judgment? Because he was advised either by totally evil people or totally stupid people. How do we know it will be any different this time? This is what the Russian government wonders.
It is not enough that the Washington Post, whose stupidity is a danger to life on earth, regards understanding the Russian point of view as weakness, but also the Wall Street Journal joins in the push toward Armageddon.
Holman Jenkins, once a semi-intelligent person, has fed the war impulse with his acceptance on November 23 of the Biden regime’s propaganda that North Korean troops are fighting Ukrainians side-by-side with Russians.
There is no evidence that I can find that North Koreans are participating in the conflict. They are in Russia for demonstrative reasons to show that the Russian/North Korean defense pact is real. The purpose of the pact is to show the war hawks in Washington that American pressure on China with regard to Taiwan can be countered with pressure on South Korea. Those who comprise the US government are far too foolish to understand that the threat produced by their provocation of China is South Korea being overrun.
Look at America’s leaders and tremble. Senator Lindsey Graham is ready to go to war with Russia, China, and Iran. What does the fool think the consequences will be? American victory?
The United States is incapable of going to war. All of the services are demoralized by the Biden regimes DEI policies that promoted not on ability and merit, but on the basis of dark skin, female gender, and sexual perversion.
American weapon systems are so inferior to Russian ones that America vs. Russia is like stoneage people fighting a modern army. The majority of America’s extraordinary expensive F-35s are so defective that they are not operational. All America has is nuclear armed ICBMs. The question is whether Russia’s hypersonic missiles wipe them out before they can lift off.
What America and the world need is peace. Washington must repudiate the Zionist neoconservatives, give up its goal of world hegemony, accept the sovereignty of other countries, and stop sanctioning them for not submitting to Washington’s hegemony. If Washington doesn’t stop doing this, America will cease to exist. It is that simple.
Take a minute and think. Are there any intelligent, moral people anywhere in the American Establishment? There are none. That is why a leader–Donald Trump–had to be brought in from the outside.
But what can he do? His movement is immature. Most of his supporters think the battle is over with his election. The American Establishment remains in place. It is institutionalized everywhere, state, local, and federal government, in the media, the corporations, Wall Street, the banking system, the universities and law schools, the public school systems, the judiciary, and in the generations of Americans taught in universities that America as presently constituted is an evil, exploitative, racist, sexist country, and that Trump is in the way of moral progress.
Where are the resources with which Trump can renew America? The journalism schools turn out Woke journalists. The education departments turn out Woke teachers. The law schools turn out Woke lawyers. We have an educational system that produces anti-Americans who are opposed to MAGA America.
Trump has already lost his nominee for attorney general. He might lose Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard as well. His picks for Secretary of State, National Security Advisor, UN Ambassador, ambassador to Israel, and Middle East envoy are all Zionist allied with Israel, everyone of which is willing to go to war with Iran, whose government they define as evil.
Can Trump and his warmonger appointees accept Russia’s reincorporation of former territories of Russia back into Russia and zero possibility of any US/NATO missile sites on Russia’s borders, including the ones in Poland and Romania? If not, Trump has no prospect of ending the West’s participation in a conflict that the West initiated.
Will Putin accept more missiles fired into Russia while he awaits Trump’s presidency to see if Washington comes to its senses? That is Putin’s inclination given his humanitarian character, but the West is working to shut down this restraint. The West is doubling down on its missile attacks on Russia. France has joined Washington and the UK in green-lighting the use of its long-range missiles against Russia. The French foreign minister said no constraints should be placed on the use of the missiles. The French minister added that France is open to extending an invitation to Ukraine to join NATO. What is it, if not stupidity, to ignore Russia’s warning that enough is enough and to poison the situation in order to prevent the possibility that Trump can work to defuse the dangerous situation?
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that the French minister’s comments are “not support for Ukraine, but rather a death knell for Ukraine.” Indeed, the death knell is being sounded for the world if nuclear war breaks out.
Such a war is possible, because Western leaders are completely lost in their own propaganda. The French foreign minister thinks that Europe’s security is at stake in Ukraine.
“Each time the Russian army progresses by one square kilometer, the threat gets one square kilometer closer to Europe.”
How can the French foreign minister not know that Russia has no plans for an army sufficiently large to occupy Europe? How can he not know that Russia intended its intervention in Ukraine to be confined to the Russian area of Donbas and that it is the West that is widening the war? How can the French minister not know that Russia is focused on Russia, the BRICS, the silk road and wants no distractions in Europe. A person has to be completely stupid to see in the Donbas intervention the unfolding of a plan to conquer Europe.
The situation that confronts us is that Western leaders have been made ignorant by their own propaganda and are incapable of realizing the real threat they have created — nuclear war. The New York Times reports that some US and European officials have discussed providing Ukraine with nuclear weapons. Could anything more irresponsible be done? How is it possible that people this dangerous can be Western leaders?
How is it possible not to be alarmed when the fate of humanity is in the hands of such utterly hawkish people?

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
