Russia redux: we got a little problem

September 5, 2019

Today we had a frightening “walk-through” the Nuclear Era which we find ourselves in. Ambassador Jack Matlock said in 2015 that “nothing will change until we find a way to awaken American citizens to stand collectively against this situation.” So far we haven’t found the way.

One of our citizen diplomats, Mike Metz, gives us a synopsis of Dr. Vladimir Kozin’s speech on the the need for dialogue about the dangerous buildup of nuclear weapons in the US and Russia. Dr. Kozin wants to talk and nobody in the US wants to listen. Please send this message below to as many persons as possible!

Ok so we have many problems, enough to worry anyone who’s paying attention, but quietly lurking in the background is one so big it could ruin an otherwise-normal, problem-filled day. That would be thousands of US and Russian nuclear bombs on planes, missiles, and subs ready to go at a moment’s notice. We heard about those today.

Dr. Vladimir Kozin, of the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, (“Harvard of Russia”—Kissinger) calls it Cold War 2.0. He’s been working on this since the days of Gorbachev and Reagan when the total number of nukes was hugely reduced. But now he’s worried and thinks we should be too. Why? Here’s the deal from his perspective:

– NATO has increased by 5x troops on Russia’s borders
– Offensive and defensive weapons are merging
– There’s way too much “regime change” action going on
– DoD has lowered the threshold for acceptable use of nukes, with a new class, (wait for it) “humanitarian” tactical nukes
– Reagan and Gorbachev’s treaties are dying like flies
– A new arms race is on, with hypersonic missiles, underwater nuclear drones, long-range battlefield lasers
– NATO is running 7x24x365 SAC bombers on Russia’s borders, ready for trouble, and
– 38% of Russians expect the US to start a nuclear war

What could possibly go wrong?

Feels like itchy trigger fingers. Could just ruin your day. This is not good.
