US Will Not Survive a Nuclear War Against Russia - Jean-Paul Baquiast

A nuclear strikes exchange between the United States and Russia will lead to the complete destruction of the United States, leaving Russia and China in a far better position, editor of the French portal Europesolidaire Jean-Paul Baquiast said.

A potential nuclear war with Russia will have fatal consequences for the US, whose territory would be completely destroyed in the event of mutual rocket exchange, Jean-Paul Baquiast said.


His comment came in the wake of recent internet speculation about the US’ possible intent to carry out a preemptive nuclear attack on Russia.



The concerns have risen after General Robin Rand was appointed as head of the US Air Force Global Strike Command.There are assumptions that he might take an example from American General Curtis LeMay who became famous in 1949 for preparing a plan for a massive nuclear attack on the Soviet Union.


Unable to subdue Russia by conventional methods, Washington is preparing to destroy it with its armed forces, Jean-Paul Baquiast wrote. In the event of an armed conflict, American politicians may carry out a preemptive nuclear strike.


“Chances of the United States to destroy Russia without consequences for itself are small,” Baquiast said.


However, even the highly efficient S-500 missile system, which Russia is currently working on, would be unable to protect the country against a massive launch of ballistic missiles from US submarines, he noted.


In turn, Russia would launch its missiles from its submarines off the coast of the United States. And if the Americans manage to hit only a part of the Russian territory due to its large size, the US will be destroyed completely, the journalist wrote.



Beware Of Obasanjo - Senator Owie advises President-elect Buhari

Senator Rowland Owie, former Chief Whip of the Senate, has advised President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), to avoid former President Olusegun Obasanjo, if he desires to succeed as Nigeria’s leader.
Obasanjo-and-Buhari-360x225


Owie, who gave the advice in a statement yesterday in Benin City, Edo State, said:
“To Buhari,  I thank God for you, but you must deliver on your promises and also build on what President Goodluck Jonathan did.  Above all, you must run far from Obasanjo. If he can’t control your government, he will fight you.

He has done it to all former Presidents of Nigeria and even against MKO Abiola who was not sworn in.


Never discuss with Obasanjo unless you have at least two of your aides present. Half way into the tenure of President Jonathan,  Obasanjo started trouble making by naming presidential and vice-presidential candidates. First, it was Governor Sule Lamido as president and Governor Rotimi Amaechi as his deputy. A respectable Lamido, a founding father of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP while Obasanjo was in prison, was being urged to fight PDP.


OBJ lured most PDP governors in the North into rebellion against PDP to destroy the platform that gave all of them relevance, including OBJ. The hate mood in the North for this election against Jonathan was such that, any candidate from the North would have won the election.

The anger was that power must return to the North. Nigerians can see that rebellion against one’s own and betrayer of one’s party doesn’t pay.

Gov. Aliyu Babangìda of Niger State, who led the rebellion against Jonathan and the PDP, lost his election to the Senate and also lost his state”, he added.


Continuing his statement, Owie took the opportunity to call on PDP members across the country to wake up so they can all rebuild the party.
“When Our Lord Jesus Christ was crucified and buried on the Good Friday, nobody, apart from the mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, knew that Christ would rise from the grave on the third day. PDP shall rise again,” he said.

Ukraine Crisis: West Prefers Blissful Ignorance to Painful Truth.

The US “is weaponizing ignorance on an industrial scale,” branding the regime in Kiev as a “pro-democracy,” and turning a blind eye to lawlessness, ideological extremism, execution-style killings of opposition in Ukraine, Finian Cunningham noted.



 Western governments and media persist in their refusal to deal with the reality in Ukraine, branding the Kiev regime as “pro-democracy” and turning a blind eye to the rise of Neo-Nazi militarism, lawlessness and assassination of political opposition figures, emphasized Finian Cunningham, a writer and prominent expert in international affairs.


“The contract killing of two opposition figures in Kiev this week is stark evidence that the country under the Western-backed regime is descending into a fully-fledged state of chaos and criminality,” the expert pointed out.



Oles Buzina, a Ukrainian journalist, and former parliamentarian Oleh Kalashnikov were murdered in Kiev this week. Both men were known for their vocal criticism of the Ukrainian ultra-rightist regime backed by Brussels and Washington.Furthermore, the execution-style killings of the Ukrainian opposition figures were preceded by a string of suspicious deaths among former parliamentarians from the Party of Regions (the party of ousted Ukrainian president Yanukovich), the writer noted.


Meanwhile, the Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada, dominated by far-right parties, passed a law, banning Communist organizations as well as Soviet-era symbols, including statues of Soviet heroes who liberated Ukrainians from Nazi occupants.


However, “the practice of oligarch-banditry and the surge in Nazi-styled paramilitaries, brashly donning SS insignia and carrying out war crimes against the ethnic Russian population; the indiscriminate shelling of eastern Ukrainian cities and villages under the orders of Kiev leaders; and the economic blockade of the breakaway region in a Nazi policy of collective punishment – all these violations have been comprehensively denied by Western governments and their mass media,” Finian Cunningham emphasized.



Instead of presenting Western audiences with an undistorted narrative of what is really going on in Ukraine, American and European mass media continue to beat war drums, propagating stories of Russian “invasion” and “aggression” without any credible evidence to prove their stance.Western governments and media have turned a deaf ear not only to the Kremlin’s statements, but also to the report of French military intelligence chief Christophe Gaumard, who officially admitted this week that there is no evidence of Russian military invasion of Ukraine, or even plans for such a military campaign.


However, just because Russian reputable media sources such as RT and Sputnik “do not peddle an anti-Putin, anti-Moscow narrative,” the West insists that the Kremlin is carrying out an information war against the West and “weaponizing information,” the expert pointed out.


The American ruling elite in a state of “blissful ignorance” votes for the supply of advanced and expensive weaponry to Ukraine, a country where opposition politicians and journalists are being brutally killed in the streets.


“Never mind American claims that Russia is “weaponizing information.” America is weaponizing ignorance on an industrial scale,” the writer concluded.



Beijing Shocks US With Unbelievable Progress of Airstrip in South China Sea

New satellite imagery shows the extent of China’s construction of artificial islands in the South China Sea. Fiery Cross Reef could soon serve as a military-grade runway in the middle of the ocean. And despite its own military presence in the region, US officials are in panic.

Dredging sand from the seafloor, the Chinese government has been steadily building artificial landmasses atop sunken reefs in the Spratly Islands archipelago. In part, the islands will be used to bolster emergency response in the region. But Beijing also says the islands will be used as military defense posts, which worries officials in Washington, already concerned about a growing Chinese influence.

Images obtained by IHS Jane’s Defense Weekly from Airbus Defence and Space show just how rapid the island growth has been. With construction beginning only last year, Fiery Cross Reef is now home to China’s first airstrip in the South China Sea. With 503 metered already paved, the runway could be as long as 3,000 meters once completed. That’s long enough to support heavy military transport planes and fighter jets, according to Washington’s Center for Strategic and International Studies.


Existing People’s Liberation Army Air Force runways on the mainland range in length from 2,700 meters to 4,000 meters.


Satellite imagery also shows that a second 3,000 meter airstrip could be in the works on Subu Reef, another island being built in the archipelago.


Fiery Cross will also host a large seaport on the island’s southwest end. Imagery shows floating crane fortifying sea walls with concrete.


For US officials already concerned about the island construction, the existence of runways has reinvigorated those fears.


“The United States has a strong interest in preservation of peace and security in the South China Sea,” a spokesman for the US State Department said, according to Reuters. “We do not believe that large-scale land reclamation with the intent to militarize outposts on disputed land features is consistent with the region’s desire for peace and stability.”


But despite this supposed interested in “peace,” the US military has steadily increased its own presence in the region. In February, the US Navy admitted that it was flying its most advanced spy plane – the P-8A Poseidon – out of the Philippines to monitor the region.


Washington has also organized a series of war exercises with allied nations in the South China Sea. Earlier this month, the US and Indonesia participated in joint military exercises, in a move which was seen by some as a warning against Chinese expansion. Another series of war games conducted between the US and the Philippines will begin next week. Known as the Balikatan, the drills are “designed to increase our capability to defend our country from external aggression,” military spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Harold Cabunoc told Reuters.


While publicly decrying China’s island construction as “aggressive,” US Senator John McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, has called on the Obama administration to move more military resources into the Pacific.



Speaking before a seminar in Washington on Thursday, Cui Tiankai, China’s ambassador to the United States, defended Beijing’s right to install military defenses in its own territory. He said there “should be no illusion that anyone could impose on China unilateral status quo” or “repeatedly violate China’s sovereignty without consequences.”


He also noted that the UN’s Convention on Law of the Sea forbids the United States from conducting “intensive and close-range reconnaissance in other countries’ exclusive economic zone.”


The South China Sea is a hotly debated stretch of water through which nearly $5 trillion in trade passes each year. While China argues that most of the area is its own territory, the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Taiwan, and Brunei also make overlapping claims.
