Putin Recognizes Donbass Republics, Sends Russian Military to 'Denazify' Ukraine

Maybe the response from Russian, will be "shock and awe"

(Joe) Lavrov said today, I think, that the EU and NATO were planning to wage a war against Russia. I know we asked already and they said it would expand beyond Ukraine, but is that something that is gonna happen this year?

A: Not yet... if ever.

(Joe) They said not yet if ever... But I think in one session, they said that the war would expand outside Ukraine.

(L) Is it still going to expand outside Ukraine?

A: Indeed. But many belligerants will fold rapidly.

Q: (Joe) No doubt. Is it likely to be one of the Baltic states?

A: Possible. Think real shock and awe.

Could be. Although I think the NATO goons will have to overstep the mark first.
Let us not forget that "Shock and Awe" is the dirty attack strategy strongly associated with the United States and NATO where they seek to quickly dominate the enemy through the use of overwhelming force from multiple weapons. I say dirty because it is not usually implemented with any respect for the civilian population.
with respect to the other about of many belligerents surrendered quickly, it is perhaps because something would cause them enormous shock and Awe that they did not expect as a result of believing their own lies.

Apparently in 2023 Biden signed into effect a law saying that head of the Executive govt couldn't pull out of NATO without either support of 2/3 of the senate or by an act of Congress. So the legality of Trump withdrawing from NATO is under question. Originally withdrawal from NATO would take effect 12 months after notification. As Head of the Executive Govt, he can still withdraw troops, equipment and funding. Be interesting to see how he handles this. I imagine that he will manage withdrawal one way or another if he's serious about it.

The law is not 'airtight': Trump may have a way out of NATO

And was there a law signed and approved by both houses that allowed NATO involvement in Ukraine?
 
If the goal was *really* to give Ukraine an edge in the conflict, the US and UK would have chosen to quietly incorporate the relatively small and ineffective "long-range precision" missiles into Ukraine's arsenal, say nothing about it and let the chips fall where they may. Instead, they chose to broadcast it to the world as a "game changer" via the media, in full knowledge that these missiles would be, and were, easily shot down by Russia. In doing so, they"forced" Russia to make a very loud and public response.This is all for propaganda effect rather than any significant effect on the battle field.Screenshot 2024-11-21 081424.jpg
 
Russia recently upgraded its anti-ship Zircon missiles to version 2.0: increasing speed to Mach 13, thus adding 500km range to the previous Zircon iteration (v1.0), now making v2.0 a 2000km range missile. If the US made old Harpoon anti-ship missile hits a ship, there is a chance that the ship may survive the hit.

But a single Zircon generates an impact of 400 times the kinetic energy of one US Harpoon anti-shipping missile: meaning that if just one Zircon hits a Western ship, the kinetic destructive power is so great that the hit will be unsurvivable! Then Russians may use not one, but salvos of Zircon missiles, which attack may rip apart an entire US battlegroup. Currently US Navy has no defense against hypersonics.

Meaning that if the US attacks China with US carrier battlegroups in the future, the Chinese' own hypersonic missile attacks probably will be now boosted by the donated Russian hypersonic missiles and these two will decimate US Naval power, destroying US "power-projection" at sea.
Meaning a historical full stop of missile bombing Middle-Eastern countries with Western ships from the sea!

Essentially this will make China and Russia exclusive naval powers in the world with only US submarine force remaining. So we might see new Russian high-speed torpedoes being developed: this is already in the works in form of the high-speed intercontinental, autonomous Torpedo Poseidon, which can be and will be probably not exclusively nuclear-armed, but conventionally armed too. Russians also made it so fast that no US submarine's anti-torpedo defenses can shoot it in the water!

Expecting Russia having some sober thinking and planning to only conventionally destroy a few best, most modern US submarines, which have in contrast shockingly obsolete old weaponry!

I don't think so. NATO decisions are outside US law, as I understand it, and are made by consensus of the North Atlantic Council of member nations.

So a POTUS can freely get the country involved in a war but another POTUS can't freely get it out. Figures.
