Senile Biden’s Last Mad Hail Mary!
“The use of Western non-nuclear missiles by Ukrainian forces against Russia, under the new doctrine, could trigger a nuclear response' - Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov
While we all can understand why the US leader can still swagger despite his dementia, senility, corruption, and all that, what is difficult to understand is the postures of the pathetically insufferable European Chihuahuas like Macron and Starmer, who continue to live under the pretensions that their countries still count for something in the geopolitical scheme of things.
A few minutes after the New York Times, oops, that newspaper again, reported (probably imagined, IMO) that the Biden administration has finally authorized Ukraine to strike deep into Russia, the two European leaders, with their deep neo-colonial mentality, jumped up like well-primed attack dogs to dutifully wagged their tails and announced that they too would allow the Ukrainians to use “their” weapons to strike into Russia. There was in quotes because the weapons they claimed as theirs use American parts and rely on American guidance systems to operate.
Of course, the stenographers who masquerade as journalists in the Western media sphere lack the agency to ask the simplest questions. They exist only to parrot the lies their governments and corporate owners vomited.
We do not claim to be weapon experts, but we have a little common sense and know enough geography to know that weapon systems with maximum ranges of 300-400 kilometers can never strike DEEP into a country the size of Russia—size +17m sq km.
We also have enough intelligence to ask why Russia, which, as is now widely acknowledged, is winning the war on all fronts, will suddenly invite North Korea to come to its troops or how the Russian General Staff will manage the logistics of coordinating 10,000 Korean troops fighting alongside Russian troops with all the language barriers, etc.
What exactly do Western leaders hope to achieve with this latest provocation?
No, we are not Russian bots. We ask ourselves simple questions and seek intelligent answers.
How would the US, Britain, or France feel if Russia or China got directly involved in their wars by ACTIVELY supporting their enemies with weapons, intelligence, and guidance systems, not to mention active troops disguised as mercenaries and private contractors?
What baffles most is the willingness of Putin and co. to tolerate the West's arrogance.
Few human beings would have developed Putin’s Buddha-like patience in the face of Western provocations.
Like most arrogant and uncultured people, Westerners have come to consider themselves invincible. They have come to believe that they can continue to ride roughshod over all of us forever. But as the Yoruba proverb warns: Mó ti fó tihin, mó lé fó tọ̀hun ni ọ̀mọ̀ Ólógbó ṣé nkó si kàngà / I have jumped this, I can jumped that is how the Kitten ends up in the well.
Pride, they say, goes before a fall.
The bucket goes into the well every day, but one day, the bottom will fall off.
For the record, let it be remembered what the Russian President and his officials enunciated a few weeks ago as captured on the official Russian website:
Among the provisions are:
“The state policy of the Russian Federation in the field of nuclear deterrence in a military conflict guarantees the cessation of military actions on terms acceptable to Moscow;
According to the document, deterring a potential enemy from aggression against Russia and its allies is one of the highest state priorities;
Aggression by any state from the military coalition against Russia or its allies is considered as aggression by this coalition as a whole;
Russia reserves the right to use nuclear weapons in response to the use of weapons of mass destruction against it or its allies;
Russia may use nuclear weapons in case of aggression against itself or Belarus, creating a critical threat to territorial integrity;
Reliable information about the launch of ballistic missiles attacking Russia or its allies makes it possible to use nuclear weapons in response…”
The former president of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, in his Telegram channel this morning reiterated the new Russian stance: “About the unconfirmed decision regarding strikes “deep into Russia" and the confirmed Russian presidential decision on Russia's nuclear policy:
As the dust raised by Western newspapers begins to settle, it is becoming evident that, despite the apparent propagandistic intent behind these publications, this development could carry very serious consequences.
1. It's not so important who made the decision to use NATO countries' tactical ballistic and long-range cruise missiles "deep into the territory" of Russia or when it was made — especially since such attempts against our country have already occurred.
2. It's not so important how many of these missiles the adversary currently possesses or that their use, according to our enemies, is intended to have — not only military but also informational impact.
3. It's not so important that these missiles are unlikely to significantly advance the enemy’s military objectives.
4. It's not so important that such decisions by the current U.S. administration will deliberately escalate the conflict, leaving the consequences for the Trump team to handle.
5. The one thing that is truly important is the statement made by the Head of the Russian State on September 12. Following this, a new version of the Foundations of State Policy in the Area of Nuclear Deterrence was approved today. The use of alliance missiles in this way could be classified as an attack by bloc countries on Russia. In such a scenario, Russia reserves the right to retaliate with weapons of mass destruction against Kiev and key NATO facilities, wherever they may be located. This would amount to World War III.
Perhaps old Biden truly intends to leave this life in dramatic fashion, taking a significant part of humanity with him...” - t.me/medvedev_telegram/544
We will never know which part of the new well-articulated Russian nuclear deterrent policy remains unclear to Western leaders and why they keep on pushing us all into unnecessary and unacceptable nuclear brinkmanship.

Well said Femi. As far as I am concerned Russians have bravely and resolutely refused western conquest and subjugation unlike us in Africa and the Caribbean. In my opinion if Russia had been conquered and the West obtained worldwide domination neither of us would be have a voice to defend our own countries culture and sovereignty, whatever of it still exists.
