The President of the United States, Joe Biden, has just issued a call-up of at least 3,000 Personnel from the U.S. Armed Forces Reserve and roughly 450 from the Individual-Ready Reserve in order to Augment the Forces of U.S. European Command.
The Reservists will also be involved with the upcoming Exercise “Operation Atlantic Resolve” in the Region.
This comes just one day after the NATO Summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, agreed to increase NATO’s forces from 300,000 to 400,000 along Russia’s Border.
Apparently, the stunning effectiveness of the Russian army in Ukraine has significantly shaken-up the powers-that-be, not to mention the frighteningly poor effectiveness of Ukraine’s “NATO-Trained and Certified” army.
Remember, NATO began training Ukraine forces back in the year 2014 for a conflict with Russia. From 2014 through 2022 before Russia entered Ukraine, NATO “Certified” the Ukraine Army as meeting NATO standards.
Now, almost a year and a half into the conflict between Russia-Ukraine, the world has gotten to see just how effective that NATO training and NATO Certification actually is: Almost worthless!
As for “Operation Atlantic Resolve” that refers to military activities in response to Russian operations in Ukraine, mainly the War in Donbass.
It was funded under the European Deterrence Initiative. In the wake of Russia’s 2014 intervention in Ukraine, the U.S. and the U.K. took several immediate steps to enhance the deterrence posture along the eastern flank of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), including augmenting the air, ground and naval presence in the region, and enhancing previously scheduled exercises.
The US described the activities as taking measures to enhance NATO military plans and defense capabilities and maintaining a persistent presence in Central Europe and Eastern Europe. Atlantic Resolve rotations are overseen by a regionally aligned headquarters there.
So here we are.
NATO is upping their troop count from 300,000 to 400,000 and Biden is calling up Reservists.
You’re smart people, ask yourselves: Do governments move this number of troops if they don’t intend to use them?
I think it is safe to say World War 3 is close at hand. We in the West have fomented this. We in the West are wrong; we’re backing a NAZI-infested regime in Ukraine with the intent to put U.S. Missiles in Ukraine.
Russia has already, and repeatedly warned that missiles on Ukraine soil would have about a 5 minute flight time to Moscow. This is a “red line” for Moscow; they will not tolerate this.
Yet Biden is now calling-up Reserves.
I earnestly hope you and your family have emergency food, water, medicines you need to live on. I also hope you have a generator for electric power once the grid goes down, and some fuel for that generator. You should also have some amount of CASH MONEY in the house because if the missiles start flying, all credit, debit, SNAP/EBT cards will cease functioning without machines to approve the charges. So cash will be king. If you have cash, you can eat. If you don’t, you don’t.
This isn’t getting better, it’s getting very much worse. With the NATO call-up of another 100,000 troops, Russia may decide it is better to strike now, rather than wait for NATO to get so many more men into position.
Tail wagging the dog,times a thousand. Nuclear war.
ReplyDeleteHay all you 18-34, its getting close. A couple more call ups or one shot from the Chinese and the draft will be on (again) A new crop of GI's after 50 years. I'd say, nobody goes until 50% of inductees are women, after 50+ years of demanding equal rights, give it to them. From an old GI who wintered in the tropics.
