Are things on a path toward global war 3.0? Is it inevitable? Will it be waged with nukes able to end life on earth by mass destruction and nuclear winter?

Cities turned to smoldering rubble can't be rebuilt. Radioactive contamination is long-lasting. If occurs from enough detonations, nuclear winter threatens all life forms with extinction.

Physician, nuclear expert, anti-war activist, Helen Caldicott, earlier explained the following:

💬 “If present trends continue, the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink will soon be contaminated with enough radioactive pollutants to pose a potential health hazard far greater than any plague humanity has ever experienced.”

A “single failure of nuclear deterrence (could) start nuclear war.” Devastating consequences would follow, potentially killing “tens of millions of people, and caus(ing) longterm, catastrophic disruptions of the global climate and massive destruction of earth’s protective ozone layer.” “The result would be a global nuclear famine that could kill up to one billion people.”

Nuclear winter is the ultimate nightmare. Einstein stressed the following:

💬 “The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking, and thus we drift toward unparalleled catastrophe.”

The risk is greatly heightened by Washington’s criminal class, especially undemocratic Dems. Paul Craig Roberts stressed it saying:

💬 A Dem-controlled “new Third Reich…Nazi” regime runs hegemon USA — “one far more dangerous thanks to the digital revolution (and thermonukes), a godsend for tyrants.” The vast majority of Americans and others throughout the West haven’t escaped from “The Matrix in which their minds are trapped.”

So they don’t realize how greatly their lives and well-being are endangered by diabolical gangsterism running their nations. On August 26, ResponsibleStatecraft.org (RS below) explained the following:

💬 The Biden regime intends “naming” a Pentagon “military assistance mission in (Nazified) Ukraine…”

It’ll be a separate command like Operation Desert Storm or Operation Enduring Freedom — a US general and support staff running it. This step represents a virtual US declaration of war on Russia in less than so many words. It indicates no end to what RS called a “a long hard slog.” It signals longterm US military support for Nazified Ukraine and use of its territory as a Pentagon base for perpetual confrontation with Russia. It risks crossing the line from proxy to hot war between the world’s dominant nuclear powers.

Planned months in advance — begun 4 weeks after the made-in-the-USA mother of all false flags to that time — preemptive war on nonthreatening, nonbelligerent Afghanistan by the empire of lies lasted weeks shy of 20 years before a humiliating Biden regime pullout last August.

Will US war on Russia surpass it in length? Or will nukes be used to end it sooner — and with it planet earth as now exists and all its life forms?

Perpetual war on invented enemies is longstanding US policy — how military Keynesianism on steroids operates. Enemies are invented to advance hegemon USA’s aims for unchallenged control of world community nations, their resources and populations — by brute force and other diabolical means. Well over 1,000 Pentagon bases worldwide are platforms for waging forever wars on humanity. Their existence threatens everyone everywhere, including:

Large-scale Main Operating Bases, Forward Operation Sites (major installations but are smaller than MOBs) and Cooperative Security Locations. The latter posts are to preposition weapons, munitions, and modest numbers of troops.

The existence of the above bases has nothing to do with providing homeland or regional security. They’re launching pads for perpetual US aggression on invented enemies.

In cahoots with diabolical CIA actions, they’re also for toppling independent governments by coups or color revolutions, assassinating their leaders, propping up friendly despots, illicit drug trafficking, suppressing beneficial social change, and replacing democracy as it should be with vassal rule subservience to US interests.

A state of permanent war defines how the empire of lies operates at home and worldwide. On establishing a new military command for perpetual war in Ukraine on Russia, RS quoted senior advisor to Concerned Veterans of America, Dan Caldwell, saying the following:

💬 “This move could signal to other actors in the conflict — particularly (Ukraine and Russia) — that (hegemon USA) is planning on getting significantly more directly involved in the war itself.” “That of course could lead to the war being prolonged and raise the risk of escalation between (US-dominated) NATO, and” the Russian Federation.

Separately, retired US Lt. Col. Daniel Davis explained the following:

💬 “Putting a name on an operation is far more significant than merely coming up with a catchy tagline.” “It confers an intent to provide longterm, sustained, and expensive support to one side of a war” against invented enemy Russia.

It’s at a time of growing economic crisis conditions throughout the US/West — a reason for dominant Biden regime hardliners to want the the subject changed as a way to try staying in power.

Separately the Libertarian Institute noted what I discussed in an article last week:

💬 Likely incoming UK prime minister, Liz Truss, replacing BoJo in early September, “declared (her willingness) to kick off thermonuclear warfare” once in power in a matter of days. Last week, she minced no words, saying: “I’m ready to do it.”

In cahoots with Washington’s criminal class, humanity trembles with the likes of them in charge — their fingers on the nuclear trigger, their willingness to squeeze it.
