One result of the just concluded NATO Summit is Germany’s decision to host US intermediate-range missiles. Prior to 2019 when Washington cancelled the INF Treaty, the treaty prevented such deployment.
The INF Treaty was signed by Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev on December 8,1987, and the treaty was ratified on June 1, 1988. The treaty was part and parcel of ending the cold war. Reagan called the treaty a “step toward a safer world.”
“The 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty required the United States and the Soviet Union to eliminate and permanently forswear all of their nuclear and conventional ground-launched ballistic and cruise missiles with ranges of 500 to 5,500 kilometers. The treaty marked the first time the superpowers had agreed to reduce their nuclear arsenals, eliminate an entire category of nuclear weapons, and employ extensive on-site inspections for verification. As a result of the INF Treaty, the United States and the Soviet Union destroyed a total of 2,692 short-, medium-, and intermediate-range missiles by the treaty’s implementation deadline of June 1, 1991.”
Blaming Russia the Trump administration pulled out of the treaty. The consequence was to kill the nuclear disarmament that the INF Treaty began and to renew the arms race. If I had to bet I would say Washington’s withdrawal was a consequence of the US nuclear industry needing the source of profits that the arms race provided and the neoconservatives’ determination to revive US hegemony through the buildup of force. If Russia was truly out of compliance, Trump’s focus should have been to work to bring Russia into compliance, not terminate the treaty. The efforts of several American presidents and Soviet leaders in the 20th century to defuse tensions and to build trust were squandered by Washington in the 21st century.
Regardless, what is clear is that Washington is pushing both Europe and Russia into preparing for war, and is itself preparing. The US Senate has joined the House of Representatives in creating a draft registration system from which to field a conscripted army. The Senate’s version includes women in the draft, as equal treatment requires. Clearly, Washington sees the need for a larger army than a volunteer army can provide.
Now that the Biden regime is supplying F-16s and long-range missiles to Ukraine, weapon systems that Biden said would never be given to the Ukrainians, along with targeting information, clearly Washington’s intent is to further widen the war by carrying it deep into civilian areas of Russia. Simultaneously, Washington is using its NGOs in Georgia to orchestrate a color revolution there in order to open a second front against Russia. Putin’s slow forever war in Ukraine has played directly into Washington’s hands.
China is the main focus of Washington’s strategy of isolating Russia. At the recent NATO Summit China was accused of being a “decisive enabler” of Russia’s conflict with Ukraine. By allegedly supplying armaments to Russia, China is accused of challenging “our interests, security and values.”
I would have expected a different Chinese reply than was made. China should have said to Washington/NATO: “You started the conflict and your weapons systems and French troops are supporting and widening the conflict. You have blocked all efforts to end the conflict; yet you dare accuse us of responsibility for it.”
Instead, the Chinese disavowed supplying Russia with any military support.
This is an extremely weak response. It suggests that all the Russian-Chinese assurance of a “no-limits partnership” is just words. An appropriate response from China would have been: “We are considering sending 500,000 of our best soldiers to serve under Russian command in Ukraine and have called up another million men for military training.”
A response such as this is what would end the conflict before the dumbshit hegemonic West puts us all in a war of annihilation.
In recorded history one can find very few competent civilian and military leaders. Alexander the Great, Constantine, Charles Martel, Charlemagne, the Duke of Marlborough, Robert E. Lee. No such men exist today, but the weapons are far more terrible. Moreover, modern war targets civilians and civilian infrastructure, as the Israelis are doing in Gaza. The goal is less to defeat an opposing army than it is to foreclose an opponent’s ability to conduct war.
In Europe a warrior class no longer exists. European male ethnicities are so oppressed by their own governments and by immigrant-invaders favored by European governments, that the defense ministers of Europe are women. What does a white ethnic European male have to fight for?
In the US the fighting force has always come from the southern states. But what have these traditional Americans, these military families, witnessed? They have seen all southern names struck from military bases. They have experienced their promotions on hold while homosexuals, black females, and transgendered people confused about their own gender are promoted. Taking orders from such people is not a southern man’s idea of the military. So recruitment has collapsed.
There are so few people willing to fight for America that Congress entertains proposals to enroll immigrant-invaders, paid with citizenship for fighting for American hegemony.
America has reached the point that Rome reached. Once the Roman military was German, the Germans became the emperors. The Germans did a fairly decent job compared to the decadent Romans, but the Empire was exhausted by its internal conflicts and collapsed.
Perhaps it is the collapse of the West that Putin and XI are banking on. Why bother to fight people busy destroying themselves.
PCR misses the boat.
He does mention China, but fails to mention that China is the problem.
The US has known for 40yrs that at a future point in time, Nazi Amerika would be at war with China, and this is precisely why there are no defence treaties with China.
The treaties between Russia and Nazi Amerika are like a handcuffed boxer stepping into the ring with China.
And the dynamic is now even more toxic now that thicko Nazis have set up Russia and China on a date, set the marriage date, and paid for the wedding. You really can’t make up the foreign policy mistakes made by the NWO Satanic Nazi West sect, but if you see them as a sect, then it’s easy to comprehend their mistakes are based on their strange exceptionalist outlook.
Upto this point, I don’t believe Russian nukes were aimed at German cities. Sure, military (US) targets and strategic sites, but now, they will have nukes aimed at German cities, and as Putin clearly stated, they will build these weapons systems, and probably hypersonic ones, and station them where they see the most benefit. They could be given to the Hooties, Hezbollah, and others over the coming years.
If a nuclear can be avoided over the next few years, and there’s a load of caveats on that, then it could truly be a global war. Me, I don’t believe there’s 3yrs.
I was watching this video earlier. It sort of shows the decline of Nazi UK. I don’t agree with all of it, such as his analysis of the 90s, which was based on 80s privatisation, and debt, but it sets a marker as to why British Nazi elites are running out of time.
I recently had to deal with a ram who’s hip had popped out. It had happened in the past, and he’s had a hip replacement. I won’t go into all the details, but he spent 16 hours waiting for an ambulance, most of it outside, the then he spent a night in the back of that ambulance before being admitted to A&E. Yesterday I caught up with an ambulance crew in a Lidl carpark. It’s very common, the ambulances will sit outside the hospitals with their patients for typically 12 hours. Most being elderly, the ones Boris, and Handcock were murdering during Covid lockdown, and now you know the real reason why the Welsh Nazi politicians don’t want any tourists, because they can’t cope, and this was made clear by the ambulance crew, it gets much worse when the tourists arrive. Taxing second homes and rentals which are only avaliable to cover running costs are hit by the Nazis.
This is just one tiny example why Nazi UK is going down the toilet, and why they see the control of Russian resources as their only winning lottery ticket.

Is the assassination attempt on Trump part of this stuff?.
Roberts is another huckster Putintard pushing the phony NATO vs. BRICS scenario–not informing his readers that both NATO & BRICS are controlled by the same global Commie cult of Jews–pretending to be ‘enemies’ to dialectically advance their WEF/UN Agenda 2030 techno-Communist policies & progress Whiteocide via a coordinated war.
I think it’s because the west is so broke, so corrupt and cannot admit it was wrong that only armed robbery could supply the wealth it needs, and it’s not the ones planning the misdeeds who’ll be facing the fury.
“One result of the just concluded NATO Summit is Germany’s decision to host US intermediate-range missiles. Prior to 2019 when Washington cancelled the INF Treaty, the treaty prevented such deployment.”
Please give up on the euphemisms; “Washington” had nothing to do with exiting the INF treaty. Your hero Trump did it.
“Blaming Russia the Trump administration pulled out of the treaty.”
Well you’re getting closer, but let’s face it, if this had happened during Obama’s presidency, you’d have blamed it on the “White House fool” himself. So please be consistent and put the blame where it truly belongs: squarely on Trump himself.
“The consequence was to kill the nuclear disarmament that the INF Treaty began and to renew the arms race. If I had to bet I would say Washington’s withdrawal was a consequence of the US nuclear industry needing the source of profits that the arms race provided and the neoconservatives’ determination to revive US hegemony through the buildup of force.”
And if that’s what you’d bet, you’d be wrong again, as usual. Any honest person paying attention can see that this nuclear brinkmanship madness has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with “profits.” Moreover, putting a few dozen intermediate range nuclear-armed missiles in Europe won’t “revive U.S. hegemony”; all it will do is increase the chances of a nuclear war. The Satanic “neoconservatives” (i.e. jews) have apparently realized that their evil empire is collapsing and it seems they’ve opted to go out with a bang rather than a whimper.
Nico X: PCRs might be a fraud, but this a real decide, with Joos on both sides. I suppose they’re doing this by destroying their own cash cow? And you think at some point in the future, Chinese and Russians will fund the next Joo state, or even build them one in the South China Sea?
The Nazis and their Nazi Joo brethren had their one world government, their grip on global finances, and then decided this wasn’t enough, so debted up their Nazi sect, and turned the world against them, when they had it all???
The truth is very simple. The petulant Nazis and the Nazi Joo mates didn’t want to share the sweeties, and now they risk losing everything.
If we didn’t have a collapsing magnetic field, and a looming Solar micronova, you might be 10% right, but you’re completely wrong. Your whiteoside fear mongering is just that. You are playing on the sheeple’s core prejudices.
Do you know, one of the main reasons for Brexit, is the fact that Poles and other East Europeans were sending colossal sums of money back home, and within 3yrs, Poland is set to pass the UK in GDP. BTW, the Poles are white, and so is Eastern Europe. Because of all this cash, other Eastern European countries will soon pass Nazi UK living standards. The UK is suffering a massive brain drain. Young white sheeple are leaving the UK in their droves, due to the collapsing economy and cost of living (house prices). I suppose this is part of your whiteoside?
The truth, those at the top, the highest Nazi elites, they don’t give a flying fuck about colour, they just hate everyone and anyone who challenges their power and wealth. The Joos can’t kill off all the whites, because we make most of the wealth. Accepted that bankers have invested in none white parts of the world, but that’s a labour cost thing.
it is old US + jew strategy always to keep war
on foreign lands, away from american soil .
it comes in handy for the jews to draft black,
brown, yellow invaders as new citizens to shoot
mainly the white native europeans like hares
(other skills they dont have) . uncle sam enjoys
the picture .
All the Elites are related and in with each other. Chinese, Russians, Latinos, Africans have take over the USA. In other words a military conflict does not need to happen as they are already here. Why would they want to destroy the infranstructure that they peacefully invaded and captured?
All the war talk is just hype and distracting from the fact that They are here, war is not needed.
carl jones–Only problem is the Jews themselves revealed the ‘Whiteocide’ plot in the book ‘A Brief History of the Future’ by the Yid ghoul Jacques Attali; which is now materializing in all these white populated regions. Now you know.
Nico X: Just because it appeared in a book doesn’t make it true, and even if part of the Joo sect wanted it, it doesn’t mean it’s going to happen. Have you heard about propaganda? There’s a lot of it in books. Many books are commissioned by those who want ideas out there.
Let’s get serious PCR, the west is not preparing for war on multiple fronts.
No new factories are being built, no new supply chains created and mining and processing plants are not increasing throughout the west.
The west cannot roll out the green agenda and wage war at the same time as is becoming clear.
The F35 for example cannot fly without parts from China which the west cannot produce.
A full scale war on multiple fronts is not feasible but the threat of this war is.
Every threat the west makes strengthens the opponent and shows the west weakened.
That’s the reality.
“In Europe a warrior class no longer exists. European male ethnicities are so oppressed by their own governments …”
In the West women can’t find real men to be husbands, provide security, and to have children. So, what does it matter about not enough people showing up to join the military if so few of the younger generations have any desire or motivation even to show up for the future? In London on a subway car, sits a rather empty-looking young white career woman wearing a tweed jacket and slacks with a brief case on her lap, and beside her sits a young happy-face Islamic woman holding a baby and a toddler beside her. The picture says everything.
Young men and women have been brainwashed that there are too many people in the world and that marriage, faithfulness, and fecundity are either forms of drudgery and pointless, or simply some kind of selfishness in an alleged world of limited sustainability. That is what Caucasian children have been taught with considerable force and discipline. However, we notice little or no effort by the authorities in ramming the same shit into people of diverse cultures who are newcomers to our nations.
All the people are permitted to criticizes and bring down are the moral standards, beliefs and traditions which have enabled the West to survive and flourish. The aim has been to destroy the basis of Western culture not just to rid the world of what is taught as salvation bu5t also as the sustaining force for family stability and having are rearing children.
The younger generations have most certainly been deliberately poisoned with a host of toxins affecting their fertility and sexual appetites. Government departments and private corporations which specialize in perception management and mass hypnosis techniques are not siloed from those which engage in electronic and chemical controls over our fears, moods and even our orientations. The people we once considered as crackpots point to the concerted efforts to fluoridate everything and they have turned out to be right about its adverse effects on fertility. However, in addition there are so many other chemical toxins which have dramatically reduced testosterone and sperm counts in men. No one seems to care.
To think that those whose creed it is to cull the population of the planet, or at least to get rid of their competition, who are the very people administering all of the toxins have simply been careless is absurd. Something very deliberate and destructive has been done to our younger generations, it is coming from all of those with their false and destructive measures allegedly to make us “safe” whether it is from their brainwashing, their toxic vaccines, or from their wars.
In the Western population collapse, the people of the West still do not seem to realize why their governments are opening their borders. The baby boomers have retired and are leaving the markets. They are not just departing and slowly dying off, but they are no longer the great sustainer of Demand to sustain the Economic infrastructures and powers of the West. We are now into the death of demand where we need replacements curiously from cultures which are thriving with people and have little or no desire to buy into our culture of death. Instead of our own contributions of children into the new mix of multiculturalism, more people than ever are choosing in the West not to have children. There is a kind of materialist nihilisms that the only thing of value we can pass on is a lot of junk and debt to new occupants.
If in all major nations on the globe all we find are globalist-appointed administrations, all of which are backing the UN sustainability agendas for top-down universal and centralized controls over virtually everything to make us “safe”, then why are they making war against Russia and so many other nations? Why are they all not beating their spears into pruning hooks and their swords into plow shears? Why are the globalists and the very plutocrats who have done so much to destroy the fecundity of the people and cultures of the West doing so much to get us into another war to end all wars? Do they want to get rid of the surviving remnant who are passing on the gift of life and their cultures to future generations? Where does their god DIE (diversity, inclusion, and equality) fit into this insane hate, and lust for death and destruction?
Surely this is some new religion in the works. Generations of our young people have been brainwashed and conditioned to accept as “good” all forms of racial, sexual, cultural and physical suicide, and all forms of Diversity, but there is no requirement for those who are “diverse” to accept any of the norms of those they are replacing. “Come one, come all the people are the West are being killed off and there is a great deal of free stuff to be had.”
The younger generations have been brainwashed and conditioned to be Inclusive of people with radically different cultures, religions, and morality from their own, but there is no reciprocation on the part of the newcomers to be Inclusive to those whose cultures they are either settling into or are colonizing. As for Equality, it also is a one-way street to the point that if you are a Christian all you can look forward to is persecution and eventually to be snuffed out, if you resist in any way. Like the Jews in Germany before WWII, the talk is where to flee to, unless you are willing bow down to the globalist god and be mentally, spiritually and physically culled.
