The Russians have warned us over and over again that they will use nuclear weapons if they are forced into a direct war with western powers. So why are most western leaders not taking those threats seriously? Ukraine is not worth fighting a nuclear war over. Both sides would be wise to try to find a peaceful resolution while it is still possible to do so. But instead, we continue to see escalation after escalation. In particular, the Biden administration seems determined to see how close it can go without pushing things completely over the edge. This is very foolish, because the Russians are very serious about fighting a nuclear war if they are pushed too far.

This week, Newsweek is reporting that high school students in Russia will be trained what to do if a nuclear war breaks out “as part of the national curriculum”…
Russian high-school students will be trained how to protect themselves in a possible nuclear war as part of the national curriculum, a local publication has reported.
Students will learn about “the combat properties and damaging effects of weapons of mass destruction, as well as methods of protection against them.” It will be part of a subject being rolled out in high schools in Russia called “Fundamentals of Security and Defense of the Motherland,” newspaper Kommersant reported on Tuesday, citing a document from the Ministry of Education.
Russian officials, including former President Dmitry Medvedev, have warned on multiple occasions that a nuclear war could break out amid the conflict in Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin said in September 2022 that Moscow was prepared to use nuclear weapons to defend its “territorial integrity” and the topic is regularly discussed on Russian state TV.
Here in the United States we rarely discuss the possibility of nuclear war, and any politician that suggested that we should train our students what to do if a nuclear war happens would be relentlessly mocked.
But over in Russia things are much different.
As I discuss in my latest book, the Russians have been feverishly preparing to fight a nuclear war, and such a scenario is discussed on Russian television all the time.
On Wednesday, the guy that could one day replace Vladimir Putin publicly warned that a war with NATO would result in an “apocalypse” and “the end to everything”…
NATO is a huge military bloc, the total population of the Alliance member states is about 1 billion people, and their combined military budget can get as high as $1,5 trillion.
So, because our military capabilities are thus incomparable, we will simply be left with no choice. The response will be asymmetrical. To defend our country’s territorial integrity, ballistic and cruise missiles carrying special warheads will be put to use. It is based on our military doctrine documents and is well known to all. And this is exactly that very Apocalypse. The end to everything.
This is why Western politicians must be telling the bitter truth to their voters, and stop taking them for brainless morons; to explain to them, what will really happen, and not to play the false mantra of getting ready for war against Russia over and over again.
Dmitry Medvedev keeps saying stuff like this over and over again.
Since the year 2000, he is the only person to serve as president of Russia other than Vladimir Putin.
And once Putin is gone, there is a very good chance that Medvedev will be the one to replace him.
If that turns out to be the case, we are going to be in so much trouble.
