Is the West gearing up for war with Russia?
81 sats \ 4 comments \ @pi 30 Jan news
I am seeing many articles lately that make me uncomfortably think that The West/NATO is preparing for a military conflict with Russia. War proponents argue that Russia needs to be stopped, in order to prevent her from attacking/invading other European countries (Poland, Germany etc) and parallels are made with WWII; Putin is the new Hitler, and Neville Chamberlain's naive mistake in Munich, 1938, must not be repeated.

A visit to Kiev on Friday by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who is set to sign a security agreement with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, would ensure British troops would be openly deployed to Ukraine.
  1. In his latest column Boris Johnson encourages Brits to join the military. He also writes:
I don’t think we will have a direct military confrontation, with Russia or any other potential adversary, of a kind that would necessitate such a levée en masse. I believe that war is always a disaster, always a tragedy, and that it is perhaps the prime job of statesmanship to avert it.

In lockstep with the UK, an "expert" in Australia now demands to bring back military conscription to "boost troop numbers" as an "all-out war with Russia looms."

The issue is more pressing as generals and admirals warn we must live in a militarised society and prepare for what they think is an inevitable war against Russia. They could get their way. If you go on backing this policy, you could be condemning yourself, your children or grandchildren to a world of war, privation and perhaps conscription into some sort of military service.

Watch what they do.
  • If they were really gearing up for a war, they wouldn't have sent all their military equipment to Ukraine.
  • They'd institute real arms production, not the money showers on the military industrial complex that yields horrendously expensive, useless systems where 3/4 of the cost sinks in corruption and good old profiteering.
  • they wouldn't keep picking fights with second-, third- and fourth grade adversaries (that, with their corruption tech, they still can't beat - Hi Yemen), further depleting their stockpiles.
That narrative - we get it in the media, I doubt the regimes believe it - is acting like it's 1996 and they're the only one making any real military equipment, still funcional after all the corruption, and they can intimidate anyone. If the last few months have shown anything, it's how delusional that assessment is.
They have nothing. Europe literally has no equipment to speak of, and the US has outdated sitting duck shit and a lot of overly expensive planes that only serve to attack someone who can be beaten into submission because it has no air defense, and can then be pressured to give up before an alibi ground operation can sweep up the rest.
The US is a wet paper tiger and it knows it. It's trying to ride out the last breaths of its high-tech trash to increase chaos to ride out the bezzle a bit more.

Great points, and I tend to agree. Also, considering the current wars in the middle east/Gaza, The Sahel in Africa, the potential of war in Taiwan etc, I don't see how the west can afford another war — materially, morally, financially, and militarily — with Russia. But you never know which demonic forces are behind our puppet politicians...

I posted recently about the propaganda coming out of the UK here and attached a few articles in the comments. Apparently Sweden is getting a lot of the same propaganda

War will be expanded in middle east and proxy war with Russia will heat up.
