Russian President Vladimir Putin gave a 7-minute speech Thursday and defined that Russia used a brand new medium-range missile with a hypersonic payload in its strike on Ukraine. It was basically a check that labored completely.
As a part of what Putin known as a “fight check,” the hypersonic missile, dubbed Hazel, efficiently struck a military-industrial facility within the Ukrainian metropolis of Dnipro, the Russian president added.
The strike was a response to Ukrainian assaults on army services situated on internationally acknowledged Russian territory, the president said. Kiev’s forces launched the strikes on Tuesday and Thursday, utilizing US-made ATACMS and HIMARS programs in addition to British-made Storm Shadow missiles, he mentioned.
The Storm Shadow assaults led to a minimum of one Russian loss of life and a number of accidents, Putin mentioned. He mentioned it’s changing into a worldwide conflict.

On Thursday, Russian officers additionally threatened to attack a brand new U.S. ballistic missile base in Poland with what a Kremlin spokeswoman known as “superior weapons.” The bottom simply opened on November 13.
“Given the character and degree of threats posed by such Western army services, the missile protection base in Poland has lengthy been added to the record of precedence targets for potential destruction, which, if mandatory, could be executed with a variety of superior weapons,” Russian International Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova mentioned, according to Reuters on Thursday.
Moscow reserves the proper to strike the army services of nations that permit their weapons for use towards Russian territory, President Vladimir Putin has mentioned.
The top of state gave a public handle on Thursday, promising a decisive response to any aggression.
“We’ll decide the targets throughout additional exams of our latest missile programs based mostly on the threats to the safety of the Russian Federation,” Putin said.
The president continued: “We consider that we’ve the proper to make use of our weapons towards the army services of these international locations that permit their weapons for use towards our services.”
In keeping with Putin, the USA has ravaged the worldwide safety system, elevating the chance of a “international battle.”
To this point the White Home has been mum on these developments and the U.S. media has solely flippantly reported them.
The rationale for the quiet response from Washington seems to me to be an intentional effort to maintain Individuals uninformed about this conflict which is now on an escalation ladder that’s getting near the purpose of no return, if it hasn’t already reached that time. When it hits that time, nuclear conflict is inevitable and no person will be capable to cease it, not even Donald Trump.
When Putin lastly does reply to Washington’s very intentional and reckless provocations, after the NATO international locations have crossed each clearly marked pink line drawn by Putin, the Western media will characterize him because the aggressor who must be confronted militarily.
As a result of most Individuals are blind to what’s been happening main as much as Putin’s inevitable response, they are going to purchase the lies about Putin being one other Hitler who have to be stopped in any respect price.
The U.S. and U.Ok. are identified all through trendy historical past for weaving these sorts of misleading war-making narratives. They provoke their enemies into an assault whereas manipulating the media messaging that’s allowed to get by means of to on a regular basis Individuals and Brits.
It labored in World Battle I when the Brits used this technique, and it’s been perfected through the years. The years of British conniving aimed toward intentionally frightening Germany into beginning World Battle I has been documented within the glorious ebook, Hidden History: The Secret Origins of the First World War, by Gerry Docherty and Jim Macgregor. This ebook is a must-read in case you intend to grasp what’s happening as we speak with Russia and Ukraine.
Typically, the provoked response from America’s enemies isn’t even actual. Just like the Gulf of Tonkin incident that triggered the U.S. involvement in Vietnam in August 1964. The alleged assault by the North Vietnamese by no means occurred.
The U.S. Naval Institute writes this concerning the Gulf of Tonkin incident.
“Questions concerning the Gulf of Tonkin incidents have continued for greater than 40 years. However once-classified paperwork and tapes launched up to now a number of years, mixed with beforehand uncovered information, clarify that prime authorities officers distorted information and deceived the American public about occasions that led to full U.S. involvement within the Vietnam Battle.”
It occurred once more in 2003, when U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell stood earlier than the United Nations and informed a totally fabricated story about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction. One other lie that Individuals, together with American Christians, swallowed complete.
The reality about these false narratives ultimately comes out, however solely years later when no person cares or is paying consideration.
So now we discover ourselves at a really harmful level, as soon as once more, in our historical past when corrupt leaders are in search of to deceive us into supporting one other conflict. Solely this time they’ve the utter audacity to focus on their provocations towards a rival member of the nuclear membership, essentially the most closely armed nuclear nation on Earth, Russia. Solely an insane demoniac would push such a reckless coverage.
A cyber assault or one thing huge is probably going on the close to horizon, a Black Swan occasion that shall be blamed on Russia or China or each, and that may launch full-scale World Battle III.
Sure, we’re dominated by people who find themselves that evil.
