When I want to find out what America is planning to do, I listen what they are warning people of others wanting to do. For instance, when they warned of Russia going into Ukraine, they were actually amassing troops on the border with Donbass, intending to wipe out its Russian population and potentially going into Russia, to which the Russians responded by amassing troops on their border in return, which was seen as the “proof” of what Americans were “warning” about. It’s easy to be a prophet that way, if you’re actually causing the problem.
Also, Americans were harping about “enemies” attacking critical infrastructure, such as the underwater cables, pipelines and so on, and what did they themselves do? They blew up the Nord Stream pipelines, and who knows what else is in the works.
Now they are warning about Russia using tactical nukes in Ukraine, as if that makes any sense whatsoever, because that’s what a desperately losing side would consider. And then it clicked: of course, they are the desperately losing side. The Russians are preparing an enormous force that will go into Ukraine and be done with its military in short order – no more “special military operation”, this will be an actual war, and Ukraine has barely any military left as it is. Facing with the complete destruction of their puppet, and with potential Russian attacks on their other puppets in Poland and other places, they would detonate a small nuclear weapon (probably something they acquired on the Russian black market in the 1990s, so that they could deny involvement when the isotopes are examined) and then they would have an excuse to strike Russia with something nuclear but limited, thinking it’s a “warning”. Of course, the Russians according to their doctrine respond to this by a full, unlimited nuclear retaliation against America and all its allies. Russia doesn’t have an “escalate to deescalate” doctrine; that’s American invention. Russia has a doctrine of “launch everything if a nuke went off on our territory”.
They are already preparing their population for the nuclear option:
Considering how the Western economies are on the precipice right now, and I am seeing precursors of total economic collapse for several years already, the kind of collapse Soviet Union had in the 1990s, I would take this very seriously, because hiding their own collapse behind a nuclear exchange, which they plan on surviving better than everybody else, is something I’ve been perceiving as an undercurrent of American strategy since 2014.
