Washington Has Resurrected the Specter of Nuclear Armageddon

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

The US and Israel have isolated themselves as the two most evil governments on earth. By complying with Washington’s foreign policy, the European puppet governments find themselves despised by their citizens.

Eleven months ago Russia’s president Vladimir Putin described the West to the Russian Federal Assembly:

“They behaved just as shamelessly and duplicitously when destroying Yugoslavia, Iraq, Libya, and Syria. They will never be able to wash off this shame. The concepts of honor, trust, and decency are not for them. Over the long centuries of colonialism, diktat and hegemony, they got used to being allowed everything. They grew accustomed to spitting on the whole world.

“It turned out that they treat people living in their own countries with the same disdain, like a master. They cynically deceived them too, tricked them with tall stories about the search for peace, about adherence to the UN Security Council resolutions on Donbass. The Western elites have become a symbol of total, unprincipled lies.”

It took Russian politicians and journalists a long time to recover from their delusion that with the demise of communism the world was a community governed by agreed-upon rules. Many Russian intellectuals and journalists had an idealized picture of the United States which kept the Russian government off balance in understanding Washington’s intentions toward Russia. How else to explain Russia’s lack of preparedness when Washington overthrew the elected government of Ukraine and when Georgia invaded South Ossetia?

As Putin now understands, the consequences of the Russian government’s mistaken expectation of fair and honorable relations with the West have been severe. Unless the West’s degradation results in collapse, war is inevitable. American and European peoples have no impact on their governments who serve the agendas of the financially powerful. Now that the West has demonstrated for all to see that the West suffers no shame from participation in genocide, even the most westernized Russians are likely to keep a safe distance from Washington’s snares.

Now that the West has completely shattered the trust built during the Soviet era, the threat of nuclear Armageddon again holds sway over the Earth. In the face of this threat, all other threats recede into nothingness.

The specter never left. You just forgot about it and then suddenly remembered it, you senile old coot. I bet it was funny to watch in real time! The look on your face was probably priceless!

Nuke detonations.

How to make a fake nuke detonation film.
1. Pile up a few tons of conventional explosives.
2. Create a huge fuel air cloud made from yellowcake uranium powder over the pile of explosives.
3. Detonate with a lightning strike triggered by wire trailing rockets.
4. Edit out T minus zero by concealing the explosion initiation by whiting out those frames with “blinding white light”
5. Slow the film speed down and add low rumble sound effects.
6. Got a new “test film” to scare the citizens with.

And I bet people will believe it, because they, you know, saw it.

Just like they believed covid symptoms were unique because nobody really talked about flu/cold symptoms before the propaganda. Colds/flu have always affected some people’s sense of smell. “Yea, but this time was different”.

There is no USA. It is now USrael both owned by the Pindar, the most powerful demon on earth who wants to use USrael to own the entire world.
The Pindar is the top Rothschild in the family of Rothschild, who have intermarried into many families. Charles is the son of the Pindar and actually Jewish. The entire British royal family has been Jewish for generations.
Most if not all of the British aristocracy is also Jewish and became so with every war by the Rothschild and other wealthy Jews buying titles by marring poor from the war aristocrats to their daughters for money. Prostitution is a Jewish trade. Anyone who has a Jewish (really Yiddish) mother is a Jew ( khazarian Russian Jew a yid). The synagogue of satan. They are not like us, not created by God. They are the enemies of God. It will be God that will soon destroy completely Britain and Usrael.
Britan will be submerged. Israel and the Vatican and the USA will burn.
The world will see it happen very soon.
80 years is the karmic number.
For justice from The Universe.
They made hell on earth for the rest of the world.
They will be paid back the same hell all at once.
They will be brought down hell itself.
There is no excuse for worshiping the antichrist and forsaking Jesus Christ.
The hypocrisy of calling themselves nations under God is an unfirgivable insult to God.
The abortion alone is unforgivable.
The devils who rule these nations are not human.
The Rothschild and their minions the yids are not of God.
Their deranged plans for this world come from Lucifer.
The NWO is a luciferian takeover by the antichrist beings on earth.
The yids and their masters the super yids the Rothschild and extended families who are just soulless bodies inhabited by the fallen angels of hell.
They are communism. Which is not communism.
Communism in theory has one class of people all being equal economically.
The fallen angels of hell want communism to be the exact opposite of communism. They want a two class system.
Masters and slaves only.
They want to turn you all into part robot part human slaves. With no free will using technology and AI.
They will alter your DNA so you can’t know God or pray.
They have been working to make you all devolve and become more demonic away from the image and likeness of your creator God.
They have made you prefer to be less like him. Less angelic and keep you from evolving higher. Once you devolve to a certain level you become like the Jews.
Psychopaths who must be controlled by demons and serve satan and all the fallen angels. The Jews have no free will. They serve the Antichrist the Rothschild. They serve the powers of Hell.
If you want that. I pity you.
Get rid of the source of your problems all nations that wish to survive and become one with God and heaven.
It is too late for the US, Britain.
Dance with the devil and you will end up in Hell you will burn.
Take a lesson when mystery Babylon the great including the Vatican burn.

“American and European peoples have no impact on their governments who serve the agendas of the financially powerful.”
No people do anywhere, not just ‘the West’.

“How else to explain Russia’s lack of preparedness…”
Of the many possible reasons, naivete is not the one I would put first.

“Now that the West has demonstrated for all to see that the West suffers no shame from participation in genocide”
Lavrov said last month I think that their operation in Ukraine was like Israel fighting Hamas. No one cares about genocide.

Power corrupts, even the sense that one has power tends toward corruption, it’s an ineluctable pull. Putin’s main complaint is he doesn’t have the power the scum that run the west do, for the moment. He is drawn just as our scum are, ours are beyond temporal desires at this point, and their human centipede line up to get to the trough of moral depravity knows no bounds. Sexually abusing children, torturing and killing children, that level of ‘power’ is the depth to which the elite has sunk through this long period of stability. In the absence of a belief in God evil romps with abandon, and that it does among the Godless western ‘elite’.
