This is the single most important, dangerous and highly revealing statement from a top defense official in the West in a long time… It also demonstrates the precarious urgency of the moment and the huge stakes going into the November US election. The world truly stands on the precipice of a nuclear nightmare with the following fresh assertion of Biden’s Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, who said before Congress on Thursday:
“If Ukraine falls, I really believe that NATO will be in a fight with Russia,” Austin stated.
What’s more is that this came the very day that Russian President Vladimir Putin warned things could easily spiral toward nuclear war in the scenario that NATO sends troops to Ukraine. Watch:
According to the fuller context of the Pentagon chief’s statements, he emphasized that more Washington funding is crucial for Ukraine in order to prevent a situation where “one country can redraw its neighbors’ boundaries and illegitimately take over its sovereign territory.”
“We know that if Putin is successful here, he will not stop. He will continue to take more aggressive actions in the region. And other leaders around the world, other autocrats around the world will look at this and will be encouraged by the fact that this happened and we failed to support a democracy,” he added.
“If you are a Baltic state, you are really worried about whether you are next. They know Putin. They know what he is capable of. And, frankly, if Ukraine falls, I really believe that NATO will be in a fight with Russia,” Austin said.
What is even more alarming about this statement is that everyone now knows that Ukraine forces are in retreat at this very moment, especially after the Russian capture of the city of Avdiivka, and surrounding villages.
Bloomberg on Thursday issued a report predicting total collapse of the Ukrainian front lines by summer, as the headline suggests (Ukraine Sees Risk of Russia Breaking Through Defenses by Summer): “Ukrainian officials are concerned that Russian advances could gain significant momentum by the summer unless their allies can increase the supply of ammunition, according to a person familiar with their analysis,” the report says. According to more from Bloomberg:
Internal assessments of the situation on the battlefield from Kyiv are growing increasingly bleak as Ukrainian forces struggle to hold off Russian attacks while rationing the number of shells they can fire.
Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said Thursday that mistakes by frontline commanders had compounded the problems facing Ukraine’s defenses around Avdiivka, which was captured by Russian forces this month. Syrskyi said he’d sent in more troops and ammunition to bolster Ukrainian positions.
So the consensus narrative and belated mainstream media admission is that Ukraine’s military is a mere months away from clear defeat, and the top US defense chief just said NATO will go to war with Russia “if Ukraine falls”.
The conflict has reached a dire and perilously unpredictable moment indeed, and clearly the already slim chances of jump-starting serious peace negotiations to end the war are slipping away fast.

“Finding NATO
Who the fuck is Nato?
Is it the name of a fish?
Nope it’s the name of the dewps.
Who believe in newks.
All they have to do is stop shooting at the Russians.
Which politician is talking about this option?
Most all politicians (whores for Israel) can’t buck the narrative, for fear of losing their place at the trough. Wars aren’t spontaneous, but well planned excursions that pay huge dividends to those who have a seat at the table.
Remember that All Wars are Banker’s Wars and that War is the Jew’s Harvest. Everyone one of those involved in the planning and execution of the conflict, has a role to play -everyone of them on either side of the conflict. They will act out their role to perfection, or else the team that doesn’t exist will come to visit. Capisce?
The U.S. must ignore and stay out of all foreign wars that have nothing to do with us. Everything we meddled in fails anyway. (V. Nam, Afghanistan, since 1950’s onward we have lost all wars caused by our meddling.)
Putin has made it clear that he ONLY wants to annex the ethnic Russian territories on Russia’s western border whose residents have already opted to join Russia. He already holds those territories, so rather than attacking Kiev and other Ukrainian cities outside those zones, he should simply maintain a defensive position over the territories that he already controls.
That would prove to the world that his stated intention NOT to continue beyond those areas is sincere. Of course if Zelensky continues his foolish attacks against cities within Russia, or continues his failed operations to try to reclaim those areas, then Putin will have no choice but to retaliate — which is exactly what our Deep State warmongers are counting on.
We should all remember that our deep state Democrats, RINOs, and neoCons are only too happy to start a nuclear war with Russia. Not only to line their own pockets, but to declare martial law in the USA and thereby avoid a resounding Trump victory in the 2024 elections. It is their only remaining hope, and they’re willing to sacrifice as many lives as necessary to achieve their despicable and selfish ends.
well enunciated and absolutely correct.
Except the only proof of that was some fake and gay voting that was held wherever they happened to control territory at the time.
More power to them, but your explanation was invented retroactively, kind of like your support of poisoning the food supply.
Actually Trump is talking about that option.
Just let Putin have Odessa, that’s what he really wants and that’s all.
All this domino theory bullshit…Putin doesn’t want to deal with lording over more people.
Putin will get Odessa one way or another and when it happens this “war” is over.
All this doom porn nuclear war shit is kabuki theater.
Russia could have ended this whole thing in a couple of months but instead chose to bleed NATO dry of ammo and supplies. How can you negotiate with a superior force when you are out of munitions? A lot more people died because of this than should have but hey…that’s how humans roll.
I’ll be in contact at a later date.
The war will continue but not expand. PTB are busy laundering the money as we speak. When they turn that money into real assets they will let the western economy collapse and get to blame it all on the war not their policies of the last 100 years.
See Henry Gruver’s vision. SQ has spoken about this before. The Crazies want a grand sacrifice to Lucifer. Does it NOT seem like NATO is trying to get the US nuked? Give away all of our weapons and then provoke Russia? It’s suicidal, if you were actually trying to protect the country. I do not think that they are; quite the opposite.
The BRICS Nation’s Are Fed Up With NATO.!
“That Many Nations Would Disappear From the Face of the Earth – That Russia
Would Be the Instrument of Chastisement From Heaven For the Whole World.”
Sister Lucia of Fatima 1957
Another war? no lessons learned from Iraq, Afghanistan defeat then!
no lesson learned over several millennia
explains the bloody history of humanity. war has been and remains immensely profitable to the successive generations of sociopaths that have been in charge.
no heart, no soul and no conscience marks them all.
Just great a conglomeration Of fucking leftist DEI idiots promoting WORLD WAR 3 while they all tap dance on a nuclear triggered land mine
If the CIA and Victoria Nuland has not created a coup to remove the elected government and if our DC grifters masquerading as representatives hadn’t turned Ukraine into a money laundering scheme there would be more than a half million Ukrainians still walking around but no you DC idiots turned loose a genocide on Ethnic Russians who did not vote NATO & Nulands CIA way in a democratic election and Putin killed the genocidal maniacs funded by BIDEN THE IDIOT SOCK PUPPET
Sooner or later, somebody is going to get mad and surprise the whole world.
Sooner
Carefully worded, so to not include Kosovo? 😂
Or, stated differently, it’s OK if Russia for example redraws Syria’s or Mexico’s borders! 🤣
Mexico ‘s northern border is 44.40.
Well good, then that fat fuck can make sure he’s right up in the front lines too when that war of theirs starts up. Same goes for his family.
Europe is a fucking mess of illegal immigrants and cultural clash. Why would Putin not just leave Europe to die on the vine? He doesn’t need to lift a finger, they will destroy themselves.
The US is afraid of having their money laundering business in Ukraine destroyed.
The only reason we would be at war is because the warpigs want more war , fun and profit.
“They” are consolidating their profits as we speak.
” And other leaders around the world, other autocrats around the world will look at this and will be encouraged by the fact that this happened and we failed to support a democracy,” he added.”
Ukraine cancelled elections , is cracking down on churches , and is jailing anyone who opposes the slaughter. How is Ukraine a “demockracy”?
Sounds like covid
“According to the fuller context of the Pentagon chief’s statements, he emphasized that more Washington funding is crucial for Ukraine in order to prevent a situation where “one country can redraw its neighbors’ boundaries and illegitimately take over its sovereign territory.”
And who cares about the United States borders ?
This is pure projection , as the NUTTO rep who was photographed almost a year ago , posed with a map of the redrawn Russia , which NUTTO hopes to break up into 41 separate countries. The western warpigs want all the land and resources the Russians are sitting on.
Ukraine is defeated. NATO does not have the capacity to move forces to Ukraine any time soon. It would be pushing a logistical boulder up a mountain to make a military move against the Russians. It ain’t gonna happen. The PTB also do not want to face the REAL consequences of war with Russia. They are content to let the Ukies die.
“It would be pushing a logistical boulder up a mountain”
How so?
For one, there are almost NO real men in the Armed forces — they’re all either girly boys or transgender. And secondly, Biden has already stupidly given the lion’s share of our non-nuclear munitions away to Zelensky to fight this losing cause. If you really need a third reason, nobody with an ounce of common sense wants to engage in a nuclear war with Russia!
For those of you who cowered in fear over Covid19, you might be surprised to learn that masks are even less effective against nuclear fallout than they are against viruses!
you are correct. an army for defense is not being built. all one need do is look at the personnel and how they carry on.
on the other hand, building an army of occupation would require its members not mind killing fellow citizens, especially those “white christian nationalists” who do not buy the abnormal being made normal.
So would that be a legal declared war, or just another illegal bout of adventurism using taxpayer funds and the military?
just another crime against humanity that this nation has involved itself in is what it would be.
IF? “NATO will be at war with Russia.” That horse left the barn at the get-go, and I thank heavens that Putin is not a psycho like the neocons of NATO. Perhaps the insane West can be contained to eat itself.
The America people will fine out the hard way that there Govt wil lget millions of them killed at the hands of Russia.
Keep US out of Ukraine!!!! Let Europe solve its own problems and fight its own wars. Nowhere in our founding documents was it established that the US should fly to the aid of these older nations when they stir up wars.
Defund NATO
