Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
As I have emphasized, Russia and China are behind the eight ball. Russia is dependent on Iran to prevent the CIA funneling jihadists into the Russian Federation and the former Soviet Central Asian republics. China has energy dependence and energy investments in Iran and doesn’t want a repeat loss like the one Washington imposed on China in Libya. Yet these two superpowers have not conveyed to Washington that Iran is off limits. The most certain way of deterring a dangerous escalation is an immediate announcement by Russia, China, and Iran of a joint security alliance in which an attack on one is an attack on all.
Russia could add clout to this announcement by immediately removing its constraint on Syria that prevents Syria from using its Russian-provided modern air defense capability to stop US and Israeli attacks on Syrian territory. Putin is deluded if he believes his restraints are preventing escalation when in fact Putin’s restraints are causing escalation.
In truth, what we are faced with is Washington’s aggression together with Russia’s restraint leading to nuclear war.
Washington’s attacks on Yemen are aimed at opening conflict with Iran. Washington’s neoconservatives have in their grasp the opportunity to renew their wars on Israel’s opponents. If Russia and China do not understand this and act to prevent it, worst provocations will bring Armageddon upon us.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis. So each time you visit the site, I would ask that you consider the value that you receive and have received from The Burning Platform and the community of which you are a vital part. I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive. Please consider contributing an amount commensurate to the value that you receive from this site and community, or even by becoming a sustaining supporter through periodic contributions.

What if Russia and China have the same bosses as USA and Europe and all of this is just theatre.
FFS, not everything is a conspiracy theory.
New Movie Plot—–What if we combine Wag the Dog with Idiocracy. The leading characters could all be TRANS!
Does this look like theater to you?
From Paul Roberts’ article above:
‘Washington’s neoconservatives have in their grasp the opportunity to renew their wars on Israel’s opponents.’
I’d say the opponents are coming right to the front door of DC’s jew warmongers.
Not going to be any Summer of Love this year.
YES
Well,the Muzak version of Theater.
“The most certain way of deterring a dangerous escalation is an immediate announcement by Russia, China, and Iran of a joint security alliance”
Right, didn’t similar things work just great towards the prevention of WW1? {/facepalm}
This one’s for you, Paul!
You fucking musical illiterates suck ass! But thanks for letting me know I’m right over the target. Bombs afuckingway!
Hey! Even the great Roy Orbison didn’t bat a thousand. Just saying.
It seems that the U.S. government is the greatest threat to peace in this world, all governments are corrupt and intrinsically evil, but the U.S. has the power and the insanely feral leadership to truly fcuk up this global shitshow…we need to ask ourselves what to do with this rabid dog government.
Well,at least we don’t have to worry about Space Aliens. Just as Space X stands ready to make space exploration profitable,we see The Fermi Paradox playing out earth style.
