Tucker Carlson on the Biden Regime’s Manic Drive for Nuclear War By Charles Taylor (Florida)

Tucker Carlson is one of the few journalists calling out the crazed drive by the US neo cons and Deep State for war with Russia. The key point is that Putin is not going to back down, and has indicated that tactical nuclear weapons could be used at some point; he does not intend to lose as that means the end of him. But, even before that, he is likely to turn off energy supplies to Western Europe, who had moved to Russian energy out of misplaced environmentalism. Other posts will cover the European crisis, but with winter coming, people will face the threat of cold like never before; a freezing cold, dark winter, looms. As for the US neo cons, unless they are hoping for a Second Coming in the aftermath of nuclear war, they are unlikely to survive, or to keep living in the world as they know it. It is a death wish, but the entire West seems to be grounded upon this thrust to national/racial suicide now.

“Happy anniversary. This week marks the seventh month anniversary, the beginning of the war in Ukraine. Something is still going on and isn’t talked about quite as much anymore. So the day that war began, which was February 24, two things were very obvious:

The first was that there was no way the Ukrainian army would be able to win a decisive military victory over Russia. And the reason was simple. Russia is too big. Ukraine is too small. The Russian military is many times the size of Ukrainian military plus, of course, it has nuclear weapons. Russia itself is the largest country on planet Earth. It’s got a relatively huge economy for the region, and it’s got 145 million people who live there. Ukraine has a population of about 40 million. It’s the poorest country in Europe. It’s got an average annual income that is much lower than Albania’s. So just by looking at the most basic Wikipedia level numbers, it was clear right away that if Ukraine wanted to remain a sovereign country, and of course, all of us wanted that for Ukraine, Ukraine was gonna have to reach some kind of negotiated settlement with Russia. Pitch battles were not going to do it. Now that’s not a moral judgment. You can root for the Ukrainian military all you want, but it’s still a fact and there’s no getting around it.

The second thing that was immediately evident about this war was how unusually destructive it was and was going to be. It wasn’t just Ukraine that was getting pummeled, though it certainly was. It was the entire western economy, including our economy. Russian energy fuels Europe, a recession in Germany was certain to lead to a recession here. And in the months since it ha,s a bad one. The longer this war goes on, inevitably, the poor everyone is going to be with the exception probably of Vladimir Putin. So we are breaking things that are very hard to rebuild.

Again, this was very obvious the first day of the war, you weren’t allowed to say it at the time. Anyone who did was denounced as a Russian spy, but it was still clearly true. And Ukrainians certainly understood it.

Back in April, according to an account in Foreign Policy magazine, negotiators from the governments of Russia and Ukraine met secretly and quote, appeared to have tentatively agreed on the outlines of the negotiated interim settlement to end the war. The terms of the deal were simple. Russia would withdraw its troops from Ukraine, Ukraine would promised not to join NATO. So each side would get the thing that it wants, most simple and effective, and it might have worked. But the Biden administration adamantly opposed the settlement. Biden’s advisers didn’t just want the Russians to leave Ukraine. That’s what they told us they wanted  on television. But now, Biden’s advisers wanted the total regime change war against Russia, apparently to avenge the election of Donald Trump, which they believed Putin was responsible for, and they were willing to fight the last Ukrainian to get it.

So on April 9 of this year, the White House dispatched its hapless cut-out then British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to Kyiv. According to Ukrainian news media, Johnson communicated two messages to this Zelenskyy government. “The first is that Putin is a war criminal. He should be pressured, not negotiated with. And the second is that even if Ukraine is ready to sign some agreements on guarantees with Putin, the West is not.”

In other words, who cares with Ukrainians want, America in the UK demand total war with Russia, regime change war with Russia. And of course, the Ukrainians caught in the middle had no choice but to concede so days later, the peace negotiations fell apart.

This was virtually unreported at the time, but it was the turning point in the war in Ukraine. This was the moment where the goal changed from restoring Ukraine to what it was before the invasion. And that seems reasonable to everyone in the West to something very different to war designed to topple Vladimir Putin, just like we toppled Saddam Hussein. And then hoping for the best afterward.

That is clearly insane and dangerous. But that’s where we are. And from that point on, everything changed.

And that is how we got to where we are today, which is the closest we have ever been to nuclear conflict in history.

This week, President Zelinksyy of Ukraine gave an interview to the left wing newspaper, The Guardian, and in it he casually called for the United States to nuke Vladimir Putin, “the other nuclear states seem to say very firmly that as soon as Russia even thinks of carrying out nuclear strikes on foreign territory, in this case, the territory of Ukraine, there’ll be swift retaliatory nuclear strikes to destroy the nuclear launch sites in Russia”. parse that, and we’re quoting, “as soon as Russia even thinks of carrying out nuclear strikes, meaning before Russia actually launches missiles, the US needs to launch nuclear weapons. against Russia.” In other words, we need to launch nuclear weapons now. Why now? And how do we know that’s what Zelinksyy meant? Because Zelinksyy was responding to this warning from the Russian government on Wednesday.

“I want to remind you that our country also has various means of destruction. And for separate components, more modern than those of NATO countries. And when the territorial integrity of our country is threatening to protect Russia and our people, we will certainly at our disposal. It’s not a bluff.”

It’s not a bluff says Putin, who we’re told is insane, so we probably should take it seriously. He is, after all, running a country with the largest nuclear arsenal on the planet. And he’s talking about using nuclear weapons .

If the West continues to threaten Russia’s territorial integrity. It’s a conditional warning and of course threatening Russia’s territorial integrity was never part of the deal, right? You remember this? It’s why you wear Ukrainian lapel pin or put Ukrainian flag in front of your house. Ukraine was invaded. The point was to kick the Russians out that seems reasonable by any standard of fairness and decency. But that’s not what the Biden administration is pushing for. They’re pushing for toppling the government of Russia, and once again, hoping that everything will be fine after that someone better will somehow take over he’s bad. Let’s kill him. heard that story before.

So in response to what Putin just said, Ukraine’s government called for an immediate nuclear attack. On Russia, an attack that would without question result in the immediate destruction of New York, Washington, DC, Los Angeles, the deaths of 10s of millions of Americans that’s what he just said. sane people do not talk this way. Ever. If there was a moment for the Biden administration to shut this whole thing down and force negotiated peace, which they could do in an instant, that moment is right now, before huge numbers of people die. But that’s not what the Biden administration is doing and moving in the other direction, high speed and doing all they can to bring the west to the brink of destruction.

At the UN yesterday, Joe Biden accused Russia, not Ukraine of making overt nuclear threats. 

“This war is about extinguishing Ukraine’s right to exist as a state, plain and simple. And Ukraine’s right to exist as a people wherever you are, wherever you live, whatever you believe. That should not that should make your blood run cold. President Putin has made overt nuclear threats against Europe and a reckless disregard for the responsibilities of a Non Proliferation regime. We will stand in solidarity with Ukraine. We will stand in solidarity against Russia’s aggression, period.”

Okay, Putin is bad, fine, agree. But Putin is making nuclear threats whatever the reason he is making them the fact he is making them in the Ukrainians, of course, are also making explicit nuclear threats is enough for any responsible person to say now we stop, especially if that person is the leader of the United States, the country which is funding this war and that could end this war tonight by calling Ukraine to the table. Russian troops leave Ukraine promises not to join NATO. Everything is as it was in January of this year, and everything’s fine. We don’t have to worry about New York getting new. But that’s not what they want. So Joe Biden didn’t say a word about America’s responsibility. Here again, we are funding this war. We could end it they’re choosing not to. He didn’t say what about that at the United Nations, of course, because they want more.

And neither did Secretary of State Tony Blinken.

“President Putin picked this week, as most of the world gathers at the United Nations. To add fuel to the fire that he started shows his utter contempt for the UN Charter for the General Assembly and for this council. The very international order that we have gathered here to uphold is being shredded before our eyes. We cannot we will not allow President Putin to get away with it. Every council member should send a clear message that these reckless nuclear threats must stop immediately.”

So Tony Blinken, Secretary of State, is a buffoon,  failed rock musician reading some paper posturing like a cable news segment how Putin is bad, so great. Got it. But sitting behind him in the shot, you just saw someone who was not a buffoon at all. And that would be Victoria Nuland. One of the people responsible for the disaster in Iraq. Now in a functioning country. Anyone who had a hand in the 20 year tragedy of Iraq in which America’s prestige was gravely degraded in which thousands of Americans died in which we got much poor for no good reason. Anyone who was involved in that, including the lie that got us into it would be disqualified from participating in American foreign policy forever. But Victoria Nuland just ascended the Senate, the Senate and tell she brings us to the brink of nuclear war with Russia. So Tony Blinken is telling the United Nations and the rest of us that it’s okay for Ukraine to threaten nuclear war on behalf of the United States. And the rest of the world looks on once their jaws open, including China, of all places. 

“we call on all parties to achieve a ceasefire and stop the war through dialogue and negotiations to find a solution that takes into account your legitimate security concerns of all parties as soon as possible. So the international community will create the conditions and space for this.”

We call an all parties to achieve a ceasefire like the one they nearly had an April before the Biden administration blew it up because they want regime change in Russia. Now that’s coming from China, which has a human rights record. It makes Russia seem like Sweden. And of course China has benefited almost as much from this war as Putin has and Raytheon and Lockheed has, but even the Chinese are not crazy enough to want nuclear Armageddon. In the end all they want to do is do business and dominate for business. They don’t want their customers to blow themselves up and they understand they’re coming incredibly close. Only Tony Blinken and lunatics like Victoria Nuland really want that, and they are fully behind Ukraine’s President as he declares that his goal is not ending the war and getting his country back, which is a fine and admirable goal that most Americans support. No, his goal is toppling Vladimir Putin and turning Russia into another failed state. Oh, good plan.

“A crime has been committed against Ukraine and we demand just punishment. The crime was committed against our state borders. The crime was committed against the values that make you and me a community of the United Nations and Ukraine demands punishment for trying to steal our territory. This is the first item of our peace formula, comprehensive item punishment.”

So a corrupt Eastern European authoritarian leader in a T shirt is lecturing us about the community of nations and telling us this is really about the punishment Ukraine demands. It’s not about self defense, or getting their territory back. It’s about regime change. Specifically, they’re demanding a nuclear strike from us. How do we get involved in this anyway? But almost nobody in Washington is standing back to ask that question. They’re full speed ahead on this. This is insane. But they’re all for it. Adam Kinzinger just tweeted this quote, by the way, any target within Russia that contributes to the war is fair game. By law of armed conflict. There’s no escalation possible by a country fighting for survival. Anyone claiming Ukraine is escalating should stop Okay. Anyone saying things that stupid in public should immediately resign from public office and be silent until wisdom comes please.

Then over in the Senate, Lindsey Graham and Richard Blumenthal are in agreement on just that same point. They’ve announced that Russia is a state sponsor of terrorism, okay. Russia should be declared a state sponsor of terrorism because the events of these past days and weeks have shown the need more powerfully than ever that Russia should be designated a state sponsor of terrorism.

“I think bipartisanship is strong when it comes to supporting Ukraine over Russia. I want to thank the administration for doing more. We have our differences about the next step. But Speaker Pelosi is in our camp, she has said from her point of view Russia has earned the designation and US swath of being a state sponsor of terrorism.”

The fact that Lindsey Graham can go on television as he so often does, and claim to be conservative and somebody cares about the United States. It’s beyond. So this is part of the endless posturing about how Russia is bad and sure Russia is bad, fine, Russia is bad. But it’s the words as always that matter. They’re telling you that Russia is now a state sponsor of terror. What are they saying that? You? Probably not and yeah, it seems like a bad place for the bad leader fine, but state sponsor of terror. It’s important for them to define Russia very specifically, is that why? Because what do we do with terrorist states? We topple their governments. We go on the offensive, we take the fight to them. And that’s the position of Washington on a bipartisan level and it’s particularly the position of people who believe falsely speaking of election related conspiracy theories that Vladimir Putin hacked by an unprovoked act of war, and they’ve held out and they’ve done better than anybody could have predicted and Zelinsky has been a true wartime leader. I’m so impressed with him. Absolutely. And I think you know, the United States should stand with them.

So if you’re one of the millions of good hearted Republicans who when this broke out in February thought, well, this is awful. You shouldn’t invade a sovereign country. And of course, we agreed with that. We should stand with Ukraine. You may feel a little fooled at this point. Because what you’re watching is classic mission creep. We arrived for one purpose, and we extend this day for an entirely different purpose that you didn’t sign up for and that will absolutely hurt the United States long term. So when Hillary Clinton says we’re going to stand with Zelinsky as he goes on the offensive that does not mean expelling Russian troops from his country, which everyone would agree with. That means toppling Vladimir Putin and creating a black hole in the center of Eastern Europe, the place where Asia meets Europe, in a country with some of the biggest energy reserves on the planet and the largest nuclear arsenal. Who how’s that gonna work out? Well, let’s listen to the Pentagon spokesman they’re going on television to explain.

What we need to do is instead we just need to reverse what we say I’m all in. And we haven’t done that. For example, we haven’t given the Ukrainian systems like the attack was missile, which can reach all of Crimea. It’s a 200 mile range. 500 pound warhead 300 300 vomits to it. It really can put the Russians at threat. But we haven’t done that. And I think we should put them at threat until we really believe that we’re seriously going after him. He’s going to continue to make these threats.

So again, anybody who had a hand and said like the last five wars, the diminished American power killed Americans made us poor, hurt the United States long term in very real ways. Anyone who participated in any of that should probably bow out of the conversation about the latest war, for the same reason that you wouldn’t say take financial advice from someone who have gone bankrupt or go to marriage counseling with someone who’s been divorced three times, because they’ve demonstrably failed in their area of so called expertise. And that would include virtually everyone you hear talking about this stuff is going to continue making these threats meaning Putin so that’s apparently the only threats that we object to if Ukraine wants us to launch a preemptive nuclear strike on their behalf. That’s totally fine. This is complete craziness. This is a quote strategy that could very easily bring the total destruction of the west end soon. And maybe that’s the point.
