Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that his country will be "at war" with NATO if the West lifts restrictions on its missiles in Ukraine. His announcement comes on the heels of Russian military aircraft being spotted flying off the coast of Alaska.

President Biden — among other Western nations' leaders — has come under intense pressure to lift the U.S. ban on Ukraine using American long-range missiles to strike deep inside Russia.

"This will mean that NATO countries — the United States and European countries — are at war with Russia. And if this is the case, then, bearing in mind the change in the essence of the conflict, we will make appropriate decisions in response to the threats that will be posed to us," Putin told reporters on Thursday.

Meanwhile, U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer arrived in Washington, D.C., on Friday for talks with Biden that are expected to largely center on the use of Western weapons to strike inside Russia.

Doesn't China have a treaty with Putin addressing support after an enemy strike?

Maybe I am an outlier, but the thought of plunging into World War 3, with Pedo Joe, and the Ho at the helm just doesn't appeal to me.

You mean you don't want to bend over and have to answer to Putin or Xi?

[jafo2010]

When you have a traitor like Biden, you do not have much choice.  Frankly, I am surprised China hasn't launched a control effort with the USA already.  I think they could seize the USA easily.  Heck, they have over 1 million of their people roaming about the USA right now.  How many would it really take?  And thousands are pouring across the border every month.

I'm all for defending our interests, but when you have leadership at this level of incompetence.......
I don't like our odds.

@CynicalPublius
This is post is about WWIII and your teenage son or daughter. I want to give you some facts and then draw some conclusions.

FACTS:

1. There is currently no military draft in the USA.

2. America's armed forces are currently having a recruiting crisis, and even though our force authorization numbers are at an all time low over the past 70 years, we still cannot recruit enough youths to man that small force.

3. The Ukraine/Russia War is a meat-grinder producing casualties at rates akin to World War I trench warfare.

4. Kamala Harris and her globalist friends in Western Europe are warmongers who actively support the bloodshed in UKraine and Russia.  We know this because Kamala made it explicitly clear in the debate this past week.

5. The involvement of the USA and NATO in that war has been steadily escalating.

6. US Special Forces and logistics advisors have already been directly involved in that war.  US-supplied weapons are being used to strike Russia.

7. The American way of war since WWII has involved escalation from small-scale advisory services at the start into full-on combat commitment of US forces later.

CONCLUSIONS:

(A) It is reasonable to assume that under a Kamala Harris administration, America's involvement in the Ukraine/Russia War will escalate into direct combat roles involving US forces.  Given the casualty rates in that war, and given the inability of the US volunteer system to sustain necessary force levels, a draft is inevitable.

(B) A vote for Kamala Harris is a vote to send your teenage son or daughter off against their will to die in a foreign land in a meat-grinder of a war that serves no good purpose.

Apparently, to point out such things is Chicken Little/sky is falling type of stuff.

[jafo2010]

No, pointing out we are on a path for war to satisfy the military/industrial complex is reality.  Our youth live in make believe, playing electronic games killing, or racing, or playing whatever.  They may just get the opportunity to be a real target soon.  And for what?  Defending Ukraine from the big bad wolf Russia?  Ugggh.

He's been threatening this with each step.  It's as much an empty bluff now as it was each prior time.

I think if Harris gets in, China and Russia along with the ME will go all scorched earth against us.  On second thought, I'm sure their 'armies' are already here.

I rather doubt it.

I rather doubt it.

How do you see it any other way? You don't think Chinese militants or radical Islamists have crossed into our country among the 80,000,000 or so that Joe has let in???

No.

No.

Okay then.  Next question.  Do you see the 80,000,000 ILLEGALS as an invasion on this country??

Kamaji...

Yes, that has been true to date.  But you back a rat into a corner, he will come out fighting.  Russia has the largest inventory of nuclear weapons in the world.  PERIOD!!!

So, suppose Putin drops half a dozen tactical nuclear weapons on Ukraine to END THE EFFORT FROM UKRAINE.  What does the USA and NATO do against Russia?  Go to war with Russia?  Hell no!  Those bleep in Europe are peeing their pants now as it is. 

And with all the  military age men pouring into our country right now under the Biden/Harris debacle, you think none of these folks are being sent here to attack the USA on the mainland?  I think you are naive at best.

A real question, how many resources would it take to defeat the USA in mainland USA in short order, and what would they need to do?

[mystery-ak]

Trump did a presser today from Ca....I wish he would do one about what it would be like with Harris as CinC in these tumultuous times. Most US citizens have no idea what is going on in the world...

[mystery-ak]

Laura Ingraham was just talking about this...she said any other president would have addressed the nation by now...

Exactly.  With Biden at the helm we are not prepared to take on a war either abroad or on the mainland.  God help us.

Biden scolds reporter asking about Putin's threat of war with US: 'Be quiet'
Steven Nelson

‘You be quiet’ Biden tells reporter asking about Putin’s threat of war with US

President Biden scolded a journalist Friday for asking him to respond to Vladimir Putin’s statement that the US and Russia would effectively be at war if the American commander in chief lifts restrictions on Ukraine’s use of long-range missiles inside Russia.

“I say you be quiet until I speak. Okay? That’s what I say. Good idea?” Biden, 81, snapped as he opened a meeting at the White House with visiting UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

The journalist persisted, “But what do you say to [Russian President] Vladimir Putin’s threat of war, sir? It’s a serious threat.”

“You’ve got to be quiet,” Biden replied. “I’m going to make a statement here, okay?”

The journalist seemed to be part of the traveling British press corps and may have been unfamiliar with the American custom of waiting until the president is done speaking before asking questions.

Russian nukes are as poorly maintained as the rest of their equipment.  The Russians haven't tested one of their warheads since 1990.  They are a toothless bear when it comes to this threat.

Russia is rattling an empty scabbard in hopes that enough Westerners are as much scaredy-cats as y'all are, and back down because, well, because Putin.

Please.
