The Europeans – some Europeans – are desperate for war with Russia. They cannot be trusted. I fear if we don’t leave NATO, they will start World War III.
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte gave a troubling Speech in Berlin. He is calling for a preemptive strike.
This is the madness of the paper tigers.
EXCERPT
“We must all accept that we must act to defend our way of life, now. Because this year, Russia has become even more brazen, reckless, and ruthless towards NATO and towards Ukraine.
“Russia’s economy is now geared to wage war, not to make its people prosperous.
“Russia is spending nearly 40 per cent of its budget on aggression, and around 70 per cent of all machine tools in Russia are used in military production.
”Taxes are going up, inflation has skyrocketed, and petrol is rationed.
“How is Putin able to maintain his war against Ukraine? The answer is China. China is Russia’s lifeline. China wants to prevent its ally from losing in Ukraine. Without China’s support, Russia could not continue to wage this war.
”For instance around 80 per cent of critical electronic components in Russian drones and other systems are made in China.
”So when civilians are made in Kyiv or Kharkiv, Chinese technology is often inside the weapons that kill them.
“NATO’s own defences can hold for now but with its economy dedicated to war, Russia could be ready to use military force against NATO within five years.
”How deterrence is achieved, through retaliation, through pre-emptive strike, this is something we have to analyse deeply because there could be in the future even more pressure on this.”
He said it will reach “every home and every workplace.”
He warned “Destruction, mass mobilization, millions displaced. Widespread suffering and extreme losses.”
I delivered a clear message in my speech in Berlin hosted by @MunSecConf:
Allied defence spending and production must rise rapidly.
Our armed forces must have what they need to keep us safe.
And Ukraine must have what it needs to defend itself.
The time for action is now. pic.twitter.com/MFioSZYcJ6

In the picture on the Independent Sentinel home page, is that Klaus Schwab standing with Mark Rutte? If so, it sure makes me want to put my trust in NATO. NOT! Rutte and NATO lost all credibility with his association.
People behaving like this are evil people that have been bought. Rutte is like the last one, he says different things to Trump and different things to Europe. His statements are easily refuted. What about energy prices in Europe? How are taxes and inflation in Europe? How is that relevant? Chinese technology is used worldwide, including in weapons. He surely… Read more »
Conservative voices in many EU countries are rising. The leaders are destroying the culture of their home lands. The answer to them: misdirection. ““We must all accept that we must act to defend our way of life, now. Because this year, Russia has become even more brazen, reckless, and ruthless, towards NATO and towards Ukraine.”
That makes sense, a distraction, but how many people can believe that distraction?
What he has stated is a direct violation of NATO rules of engagement and of the treaty that NATO members are supposed to be abiding to. Not to be used for any other purpose other than defense. He wants to use NATO for fictional preemptive and offensive purposes. Go fly a kite and come back when you pull your head’s… Read more »
That is certain. NATO is a defensive alliance only. The elitists plan for major destruction and central control. They may have a hard time with Russia and the USA not cooperating with them. Maybe this time there will be a world war in which the USA does not foolishly participate. They can stall until 2028 but Vance will not go… Read more »
