It Is Past Time for Washington to Come to Its Senses

Paul Craig Roberts

It appears that the pigmies in Washington have chosen the wrong country for the role of preferred enemy if there is truth to yesterday’s reports that Russia has deployed or has in development an orbital nuke platform that can drop nuclear warheads out of orbit without warming and with no chance of interception.  Recently I reported on Steven Starr’s new book that  one, two or three high altitude blasts, depending on altitude, is all it takes to collapse the US and leave it in total chaos without having to do any ground damage.  See:  https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2024/02/07/the-united-states-has-zero-national-security/ 

Brighteon’s report says the orbital system is live:

Russia goes live with orbital nuke platform: Capitol Hill on edge as multi-megaton warheads threaten the skies

According to sources, Russia has just gone live with an orbital nuke platform that can drop nuclear warheads out of orbit at any time, detonating over key U.S. cities and military basis without warning and with zero chance of being intercepted. Capitol Hill is in a panic, describing Russia’s new technology as “destabilizing” and calling for urgent action to somehow counter Russia’s military weapons advantage. The U.S. military, meanwhile, is too busy being “woke” to build any new technology. Russia has orbital nukes, but the U.S. Navy has drag queens and trannies in charge. Do not wonder how this ends…

Other sources collected by Simplicius treat the orbital platform as a threat in process:  https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/planetary-scare-russian-doomsday?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=1351274&post_id=141657380&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=dx5km&utm_medium=email 

It is too early to know the truth of these reports or whether this is just another scare story, such as “Saddam Hussein’s Weapons of Mass Destruction” and  “Muslim Terrorists,” to gin up new military spending for a replacement “threat” now that Russia has won the war in Ukraine.  

What it does show is the stupidity of a dysfunctional Tower of Babel such as the United States picking a fight with a highly functional and unified society as Russia.  America’s liberal interventionists superseded by the hegemonic neoconservatives have created a dangerous foe for the US that Washington has no chance of defeating.  Russia already with deployed hypersonic ICBMs that randomly alter trajectory in flight apparently is adding to its dominance weapons fired from space.  If Washington cannot bring itself to annoy Israel by expelling the neoconservatives from their hold on US foreign policy, the idiot West has run its course.
