No Danger of Nuclear War?
The Pentagon’s Plan to Blow up the Planet
Nuclear War In Yemen @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vu8GDJzyKx4
More
than 2000 nuclear explosions have occurred since 1945 as part of nuclear
weapons’ testing.Officially only two nuclear bombs (Hiroshima and Nagasaki, 6 and 9, August 1945) have been used in an act of war.
The media consensus is that a nuclear holocaust is an impossibility.
Should
we be concerned?
Publicly available military documents confirm that nuclear war is still on the drawing board of the Pentagon. Compared to the 1950s, however, today’s nuclear weapons are far more advanced. The delivery system is more precise. In addition to China and Russia, Iran, Syria and North Korea are targets for a first strike pre-emptive nuclear attack.
Let us be under no illusions, the Pentagon’s plan to blow up the planet using advanced nuclear weapons is still on the books.
War is Good for Business: Spearheaded by the “defense contractors” (Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, British Aerospace et al), the Obama administration has proposed a one trillion dollar plan over a 30 year period to develop a new generation of nuclear weapons, bombers, submarines, and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) largely directed at Russia and China.
A new arms race is unfolding. Russia has in turn responded to US threats through a major modernization of its strategic nuclear weapons arsenal.
Political Insanity
The use of
nuclear weapons is casually endorsed by presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, who believes that
nuclear weapons are instruments of peace-making. Her election campaign is
financed by the US military industrial complex which produces the WMDs.Meanwhile, scientists on contract to the Pentagon have endorsed the use of tactical nuclear weapons, which are said to be “harmless to the surrounding civilian population because the explosion is underground.” The tactical nukes are bona fide thermonuclear weapons, with an explosive capacity between one third and six times a Hiroshima bomb. They have been cleared for battlefield use (in the conventional war theater) by the US Senate and their use does not require the approval by the Commander in Chief.
The people at the highest levels of government who make decisions regarding the use of nuclear weapons haven’t the foggiest idea as to the implications of their actions.

According to 1956 Plan, H-Bombs were to be Used Against Priority “Air Power” Targets in the Soviet Union, China, and Eastern Europe.
Major Cities in Soviet Bloc, Including East Berlin, Were High Priorities in “Systematic Destruction” for Atomic Bombings.

Today’s List of Targeted
Cities
The Pentagon has been actively considering the use of nuclear missiles against military targets inside Russia, … Three options being considered by the Pentagon are the placement of anti-missile defenses in Europe aimed at shooting Russian missiles out of the sky; a “counterforce” option that would involve pre-emptive non-nuclear strikes on Russia military sites; and finally, “countervailing strike capabilities,” involving the pre-emptive deployment of nuclear missiles against targets inside Russia.
The AP states: “The options go so far as one implied—but not stated explicitly—that would improve the ability of US nuclear weapons to destroy military targets on Russian territory.” In other words, the US is actively preparing nuclear war against Russia.
Robert Scher, one of Carter’s nuclear policy aides, told Congress in April that the deployment of “counterforce” measures would mean “we could go about and actually attack that missile where it is in Russia.” According to other Pentagon officials, this option would entail the deployment of ground-launched cruise missiles throughout Europe.
The criminality and recklessness of the foreign policy of Washington and its NATO allies is staggering. A pre-emptive nuclear strike against Russian forces, many of them near populated areas, could claim millions of lives in seconds and lead to a nuclear war that would obliterate humanity.
Even assuming that the US officials threatening Russia do not actually want such an outcome, however, and that they are only trying to intimidate Moscow, there is a sinister objective logic to such threats.” (Niles Williamson, Military Madness: US Officials Consider Nuclear Strikes against Russia, World Socialist Website, June 5, 2015, emphasis added)

Today’s Potential Targets for US Nuclear
Attacks
Are
countries in the Middle East potential targets for a nuclear attack? (For further
details, see Michel Chossudovsky, Dangerous
Crossroads: Is America Considering the Use of Nuclear Weapons against Libya? Global
Research, April 2011).The tactical nuclear weapons were specifically developed for use in post Cold War “conventional conflicts with third world nations”. In October 2001, in the immediate wake of 9/11, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld envisaged the use of the B61-11 tactical nuclear bomb in Afghanistan. The targets were Al Qaeda cave bunkers in the Tora Bora mountains.
Rumsfeld stated at the time that while the “conventional” bunker buster bombs “‘are going to be able to do the job’, … he did not rule out the eventual use of nuclear weapons.” (Quoted in the Houston Chronicle, 20 October 2001, emphasis added.)

The use of the B61-11 was also contemplated during the 2003 bombing and invasion of Iraq as well as in the 2011 NATO bombings of Libya.
In this regard, the B61-11 was described as “a precise, earth-penetrating low-yield nuclear weapon against high-value underground targets”, which included Saddam Hussein’s underground bunkers:
”If Saddam was arguably the highest value target in Iraq, then a good case could be made for using a nuclear weapon like the B61-11 to assure killing him and decapitating the regime” (Defense News, December 8, 2003).
The 1996 Plan to Nuke
Libya
“Senior Pentagon officials ignited controversy last April [1996] by suggesting that the earth-penetrating [nuclear] weapon would soon be available for possible use against a suspected underground chemical factory being built by Libya at Tarhunah. (David Muller, Penetrator N-Bombs, International Action Center, 1997)
Tarbunah has a population of more than 200,000 people, men, women and children. It is about 60 km East of Tripoli. Had this “humanitarian bomb” (with a ”yield” or explosive capacity of two-thirds of a Hiroshima bomb) been launched on this “suspected” WMD facility, it would have resulted in tens of thousands of deaths, not to mention the nuclear fallout… The man behind this diabolical project to nuke Libya was Assistant Secretary of Defense Harold Palmer Smith Junior. “Even before the B61 came on line, Libya was identified as a potential target”. (Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists – September/ October 1997, p. 27 )
Concluding Remarks
Nagasaki, August 9, 1945
What we are dealing with is the criminalization of the State, whereby officials in high office are complicit in fostering the pre-emptive use of nuclear weapons. The media has camouflaged the implications of America’s post Cold war nuclear doctrine, which was formulated in a secret meeting at US Strategic Command Headquarters on Hiroshima Day, August 6, 2003.
On August 6, 2003, on Hiroshima Day, commemorating when the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima (August 6 1945), a secret meeting was held behind closed doors at Strategic Command Headquarters at the Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska.
Senior executives from the nuclear industry and the military industrial complex were in attendance. This mingling of defense contractors, scientists and policy-makers was not intended to commemorate Hiroshima. The meeting was intended to set the stage for the development of a new generation of “smaller”, “safer” and “more usable” nuclear weapons, to be used in the “in-theater nuclear wars” of the 21st Century.
In a cruel irony, the participants to this secret meeting, which excluded members of Congress, arrived on the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing (August 6) and departed on the anniversary of the attack on Nagasaki (August 9). (Michel Chossudovsky, Towards a World War III Scenario, The Dangers of Nuclear War, Global Research, Montreal, 2012)
The Hiroshima Day 2003 meetings had set the stage for the “privatization of nuclear war”. Corporations not only reap multibillion-dollar profits from the production of nuclear bombs, they also have a direct voice in setting the agenda regarding the use and deployment of nuclear weapons.
All the safeguards of the Cold War era, which categorized the nuclear bomb as “a weapon of last resort”, have been scrapped. “Offensive” military actions using nuclear warheads are now described as acts of “self-defense”. During the Cold War, the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) prevailed, namely that the use of nuclear weapons against the Soviet Union would result in “the destruction of both the attacker and the defender”.
In the post Cold war era, US nuclear doctrine was redefined. There is no sanity in what is euphemistically called US foreign policy. At no point since the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6th, 1945, has humanity been closer to the unthinkable…
Stay informed, spread the word far and wide. To reverse the tide of war, the broader public must be informed. Post on Facebook/Twitter.
Confront the war criminals in high office.
What we really need is real “Regime Change in America”.

The fact of the matter is that EVERY nuke or bomb of any kind used and or detonated is an act of war against the environment and hence ourselves. Hiroshima and Nagasaki, was a result of our collective ignorance and peace was and continues to never be the objective under the current operating insanity. Wake up folks we're living within the framework of a conflict based society that holds some more valued than others and when that happens peace will never be a final result.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the first comment. In my opinion as long as the population of the world is focusing on reasons to be divided, there will always be psychopathic opportunists who take advantage of that divided mentality to seize control. We outnumber those who are in power; the rich, the political, the hidden, the shadow-people. With vigilant, organized like-minded co-operation between 90% of the people on this planet, we can eliminate the negative factors endangering life and beauty, and create a utopian, effecient way of life for all creatures and objects. Shut off your brainwashing machines; your TVs and radios and whatever else forces itself into your conscious temple, and begin to feel and think the utopian thoughts that change the world. Be the change you want to see!
ReplyDeleteThis is the ongoing price that all of life pays, for refusing to face the fact that psychopathy is a genetic brain disorder. Science can create weapons that can destroy all of life and yet we can't isolate the pscyhopathy gene and causation of this disease which has hounded humanity throughout recorded history? Fukushima is ignored, the fact that there is no known method for safely storing nuclear waste is ignored.Politicians now discuss "limited nuclear exchange". Thyroid cancer, known to be associated with radiation exposure, is according to the American Cancer Society, the fastest growing cancer diagnosis in the United States. Obama raised the safey level numbers for radiation in soil and air in 2013. The public receives no official government radiation level readings. (I wonder why?) But there are some intelligent and concerned citizens who have expensive equipment and report radiation levels throughout the US on a weekly basis. All the leaking waste, previous tests, and now Fukushima, radiation is accumaltive.

I look at it this way, FYM. Psychopathy is the norm under the conditions we have accepted. Yes... Is it a genetic disorder or an environmental condition that we have accepted that leads to psychopathy. Nukes are a result of conflict based society, a condition that rewards the most psychopathic among us, agreed?
DeleteIn nature we'll rarely if ever find ducks fighting over bread if there is enough bread for every duck or monkeys fighting over bananas if there are enough bananas for every monkey, will we? The nature of the system is explosive, it's based on creating the illusion of scarcity and again, when things are scarce then we'll bomb the hell out of people so we can take their resources when it's not necessary to do so.
Craziness is the result of a perception of not having enough, and these conditions lead to things like NUKES. Money systems are always based on scarcity perceptions, and when things are scarce we can place a value symbol on them and hence dollars become more important than life itself. In which case, bring on the bombs.... Sick society we're living in isn't it?
