Russians were warned today to take anti-radiation pills and rush to their nearest nuclear bomb shelters after hackers compromised state television servers to broadcast chilling messages. TV and radio programmes in Moscow and the Sverdlovsk region, including Yekaterinburg city, were interrupted with an alarming message telling citizens a missile strike had been conducted on Russian soil.
The population was urged to take potassium iodide pills, don gas masks to protect themselves and to seek shelter.Thankfully, the warning was not real. Hackers were behind it. But the truth is that we are all going to need anti-radiation pills if this madness doesn’t end. Both sides just continue to escalate matters. On Thursday, the Russians hit Ukrainian cities with the largest missile attack in weeks…
The head of Ukraine’s armed forces said Russia had fired 81 missiles at Ukrainian territory on Thursday morning, including six “kinzhal” hypersonic missiles, which its air force cannot intercept. The mayor of Kyiv, Vitali Klitschko, said the capital experienced a number of explosions that had damaged energy infrastructure and injured several civilians. In his most recent post on Telegram, Klitschko said that because of emergency power outages after the missile attack, 40% of the capital’s consumers are now without heating.Russia had not used hypersonic Kinzhal missiles since the beginning weeks of the war. These missiles are absolutely devastating, because they can fly at speeds that are absolutely mind blowing…
The Kinzhal, unveiled by Russian President Vladimir Putin five years ago, can accelerate to Mach 4 — four times the speed of sound — and may be capable of speeds of up to Mach 10, with a range to about 1,250 miles. The missile is also believed to be nuclear-capable. An even more sophisticated weapon, Russia’s Avangard hypersonic glide vehicle, can fly at speeds as high as Mach 27, according to the Kremlin. Another hypersonic, the Zircon anti-ship missile, has also reportedly been developed, but there are no reports of the Zircon or Avangard being used in combat.The U.S. has poured nearly 200 billion dollars into this conflict so far, but the Russians continue to gain more ground. Even with all of the aid we have given them, the Ukrainians are simply outmatched, and at this point even Ukrainian news sources are openly acknowledging the reality of what has been happening in places such as Bakhmut…
The Kyiv Independent recently interviewed soldiers on the frontline and issued a surprisingly blunt assessment (given it’s obviously a news source on the Ukrainian side) that Ukrainian soldiers are by and large “unprepared, poorly-trained battalions being thrown into the front line meat grinder to survive as best they could with little support from armored vehicles, mortars, artillery, drones and tactical information.”Would Joe Biden be willing to send his son Hunter to fight in Bakhmut? If not, then why does he expect Ukrainians to send their kids into an endless slaughter? If politicians on both sides and their families actually had to fight in these wars, they would end really quick. Unfortunately, I believe that things could soon go to an entirely new level. Once they lose Bakhmut, the Ukrainians will become very desperate and might end up doing something really stupid. Speaking of stupid, highly respected journalist Seymour Hersh says that the Biden administration’s approach to Ukraine is “very scary and very dumb”…
“What’s going on now in this White House is terrifying to me”, Hersh said. “(Antony) Blinken, (Jake) Sullivan and (Victoria) Nuland … they’re just out of their league here… Do they really want to get NATO into a war? There’s no question we’ve been increasing the amount of American troops in Poland, secretly, and deploying many more arms in that area. I would guess they may push for NATO to make a physical presence… I don’t know what the goal is. I don’t know if they know what the goal is… I don’t know what’s going on in that White House. But it’s very scary and very dumb.”I will never understand how the United States of America ended up having people like Blinken, Sullivan and Nuland running our foreign policy. Have we really fallen that far? They are evil and incompetent at the same time, and that is a very dangerous combination. I wouldn’t trust them to run a Dairy Queen, but now the fate of humanity is literally in their hands. Earlier today, I was quite alarmed to read that there has been “an increasing presence of Russian submarines off of U.S. coasts”…
As Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine continues to rage, United States commanders and military observers are sounding the alarm about the activity of Russia’s submarine fleet thousands of miles away, off the U.S. coast. Throughout the war, which began when Putin launched a full-scale invasion of neighboring Ukraine last February, there has been a buildup of Russian Navy forces in the Black Sea. There has also been an increasing presence of Russian submarines off of U.S. coasts and in the Mediterranean, according to officials.If you have read my latest book, then you already understand why this is such a big deal. Meanwhile, one of the top officers in the Chinese military has publicly stated that it is time to “concentrate our efforts on preparations for war”…
Emphasizing Beijing’s urgency on Sunday, one of China’s two most senior military officers, Zhang Youxia, called on the People’s Liberation Army to “concentrate our efforts on preparations for war.” Nearly 73 years old, Zhang remains in his position as one of the very few PLA officers with combat experience. As the South China Morning Post reports, another senior official called for improvements to the PLA’s urban warfare capabilities. Most of Taiwan’s population lives in cities. Put simply, Beijing isn’t messing around. This year’s National People’s Congress has confirmed a defense spending increase of 7.2% for 2023-2024.If the Chinese did not intend to invade Taiwan, they would have no reason to prepare for war. But the truth is that they know that they are going to invade, and they also know that this will mean war with the United States. Of course the U.S. military is rapidly preparing for such a conflict as well. The following comes from a very interesting piece in The Economist about U.S. preparations for a war with the Chinese…
The marines are training for a war with China, probably precipitated by an invasion of Taiwan. Their base in Okinawa, at the southern end of the Japanese archipelago, is just 600km (370 miles) from Taiwan. The two islands are part of what American military planners call the “first island chain”: a series of archipelagoes and islands, big and small, that stretches from Japan to Malaysia, impeding naval passage from China to the Pacific. Whether by harrying Chinese ships from a distance or—much less likely—by deploying to Taiwan to help repel a Chinese landing, the marines will be early participants in any conflict.Before I end this article, I want to make sure that nobody forgets about the Middle East. War is coming there too, and it is going to be absolutely terrible. Things are so tense in the region right now, and we just witnessed
This is a time of wars and rumors of wars. If our leaders were sane, they would be trying to find peaceful resolutions with both the Russians and the Chinese. But instead they are drunk with arrogance and power, and they seem to take delight in endlessly provoking both Russia and China. There isn’t going to be peace, and so you might want to stock up on some anti-radiation pills while you still can.
