From Paul Craig Roberts [with additional content/graphics by Doug]:
The Russian government made it completely clear that a decision to fire missiles into Russia means the West is at war with Russia. Nevertheless, the insane West still fired missiles into Russia.
Putin responded with a demonstration of a new hypersonic missile that completely destroyed a Ukrainian armaments production facility. The missile travels at speed that the West has no capability to intercept (Mach 10—faster than any Western weapon) and was designed to carry nuclear warheads. The message to the West is clear: If you persist in your war with Russia, you can expect widespread destruction.
The graphic above shows how quickly their multi-warhead 'Oreshnik' missile can reach Western Europe. The Oreshnik nuclear capable hypersonic missile is able to reach any European capital, at a top speed of Mach 10+ —which is faster than a bullet. There would be very little time for citizens to reach shelters. Eastern Europe could be hit in minutes. There is no air defense system in the world that could stop them.
From Moon Over Alabama:
The new missiles, named Oreshnik (hazel), is a RS-26 variant with a shorter range and a payload of six (instead of the previously four) multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRV). Each reentry vehicle can carry six sub-munitions. [Doug here: that’s 36 separate bombs—and 36 different targets?] The payload can be inert, destroying the target by the shear power of its kinetic energy, high-explosive or nuclear.
The missile uses solid fuel and is road mobile (meaning that they can be launched even closer to Russia’s western border—thereby reducing time to impact. It can be fired on short notice from camouflaged positions.
The Neocons Who Should be Tried for Treason
Martin Armstong explains how the personal vendettas of Blinken, Victoria Nuland and her husband Robert Kagan have against Russia. These are the people who have brought Western Civilization to it’s knees:
Martin: Biden is NOT running the country. It’s in the (unelected) hands of the Neocons, and both Garland and Blinken just so happen to be Ukrainian Jews with family histories that insist they were persecuted by Russians. Garland has abused the power of the Department of Justice to prosecute Trump because he would fire them all desperately.
Robert Kagan is Victoria Nuland’s husband. He is the one who started this claim that Trump will destroy democracy and become a dictator. What the Washington Post omits, besides pointing out he is Nuland’s husband, but also that Nuland was in EVERY administration except Trump’s —who did his best to prevent these Neocons from destroying the United States.
[Doug here: Victoria Nuland is directly responsible for the de-stabilizing Coup in Ukraine in 2014 that has led to this moment in history. See my posts The US is to Blame for War in Ukraine and Putin was Correct: NYT Confirms CIA Built "12 Secret Spy Bases" In Ukraine & Waged Shadow War For Last Decade —the latter link from ZeroHedge. ]
It is these people with personal vendettas against Russians who have usurped the power of the United States and positioned the Democrats to install Biden [Doug: by cheating], who they KNEW was incompetent. They have been running the country. They all should be hauled out and tried for Treason – but then again, there is NOBODY in Congress willing to defend our country or the people anymore.
Back to PCR: What will the insane West do?
Will it come to its senses, or is it more important to widen the war in order to lock Trump in and prevent him from reaching a peaceful end to the conflict?
The Russian-hating Jew that Washington installed as its agent in Ukraine is demanding a “strong response” from the West. The other Jew In other words, Zelensky is demanding Europe and the US put themselves at risk of destruction simply because Russia responded to a missile attack by the West from Ukrainian soil with a missile attack on a Ukrainian military facility. What sense does this make? None.
It is unclear that the American people and those of Europe will survive their acceptance of the theft by the Democrats of the 2020 US presidential election. The consequence of the theft of the presidential election was an insane regime in Washington that has consistently step-by-step widened a local conflict into a war of the West with Russia.
The British have not helped the situation by electing a prime minister as unhinged as Biden. In the West it seems that only Hungary’s Viktor Orban understands the seriousness of the situation.
Putin said the West’s missile attack on Russia drastically changed the nature of the conflict in Ukraine. The conflict has been transformed into a war of the West against Russia. This intentional decision by the West to go to war with Russia was taken despite Russia’s clear warning.
Putin reminded everyone that the conflict in Ukraine was provoked by Washington which refused Russia’s peaceful approach of the Minsk Agreement and refused Russia’s request for a mutual security agreement.
Putin made the point that Washington and NATO have deliberately escalated the conflict and are making it into global war.
Putin pointed out that Washington has deliberately “destroyed the system on international security” and is “pushing the whole world toward a global conflict.”
Putin made the point that although the West has no defense against Russian missiles, Russia prefers diplomacy to war, but if the West persists in war, the West will suffer the consequences
Certainly, Ukraine’s retention of Donbas, formerly a part of Russia herself that Soviet leaders attached to the Soviet Union’s Ukrainian province, is not worth a devastating, perhaps final, war. What madness is driving the West’s irresponsible attitude toward life?
It appears to be the neoconservatives’ agenda of US and Israeli hegemony, egged on by profit and power for the US military/security complex and the unrealistic belief of Americans in their invincibility.
