Nuclear treaties (mainly between the USA and Russia) have formed the cornerstone of world peace, stability and safety for decades. They have been an essential mechanism in the international security architecture. Nuclear treaties gave assurance to the world that the human race would cease to be drawn into a never-ending and extremely dangerous arms race – a nuclear arms race at that. However, recent developments threaten this stability. For years, the US has been steadily provoking many nations, especially Russia, with a variety of tactics, including false flag operations, sanctions, coups and importantly by pulling out of key nuclear treaties. Now, there is only one nuclear treaty left (the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or START, known in Russian as START III) that the US has not withdrawn from … and this is set to expire in 2021, with no signs of US interest in renewing it.
US History of Withdrawal from Nuclear Treaties
In 2002, the US withdrew from the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty of 1972. On February 2nd, 2018, in the document Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), the Trump Administration revealed that the US was changing its nuclear policy. It was specifically retaining the right of nuclear first use (NFU) (meaning pre-emptive strikes) as well as embracing the development of low-yield nuclear warhead for submarine-launched ballistic missiles. Later in 2018, Trump announced the US intention to withdraw in 6 months from the Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty of 1987, which he made official in a written statement on February 1st, 2019. Some reports state that National Security Advisor and notorious warhawk John Bolton was the force behind the INF withdrawal – the same Zionist neocon warmonger itching for war with Iran, Venezuela, North Korea and any other nation not already under the heel of the US-led NWO.
A study of the NPR by Seyom Brown explains:
“Blurring the distinction between non-nuclear and nuclear war, the 2018 NPR reverses the commitment in the Obama administration’s 2010 NPR to reduce the role of nuclear weapons in US grand strategy … [the] NPR fails to show why modernized nuclear capabilities are better able to deter and defend against potential enemy aggression than technologically advanced non-nuclear capabilities. Its presumption of controllable nuclear exchanges will reduce the calculations of risk and increase the likelihood of conflicts escalating to nuclear war.”
How the US Tricked Russia into Dissolving the Soviet Union
In the above linked White House statement, the US tries to claim Russia is the one violating the INF, when actually it is the US itself. This kind of mendacity is typical of US behavior. History repeats itself. It is reminiscent of how then President George H. W. Bush lied to then Soviet Chairman Gorbachev, promising him that NATO would not extend “one inch eastwards” and goading him into dissolving the Soviet Union. That turned out to be a giant whopper, as NATO has constantly expanded eastwards, gobbling up Baltic, Slavic and former Soviet states. For a deeper background to all this, read How America Double-Crossed Russia and Shamed the West by Eric Zuesse:
“The conditionality of the Soviet Union’s agreement to allow East Germany to be taken by West Germany and for the Cold War to end, was that NATO would not expand “one inch to the east.” This was the agreement that was approved by the Russian President of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev … He trusted American President George Herbert Walker Bush, whose friend and Secretary of State James Baker made this promise to Gorbachev … Russia kept its part of the bargain. It ended the Berlin Wall, allowed East Germany to join with West Germany; ended the Warsaw Pact; and ended communism. Russia ended its entire Cold War against the U.S., not just the ideology but the Soviet Union and its alliances. But, in contravention of the promise that had been made to Gorbachev, the U.S. and its allies did not end their war against a now free and democratic Russia. Instead, over the years, the NATO alliance absorbed, one by one, the former member-nations of the Warsaw Pact — and yet refused to allow membership to Russia.”
Who’s Violating the INF?
Russian President Vladimir Putin recently warned journalists of the US-withdrawal trend that has been happening – and the dire and urgent situation humanity subsequently now faces, given that there are less and less treaties to prevent another nuclear arms race. Putin said:
“Our American partners simply withdrew from the ABM in 1972 … it was the first step taken to the dismantling of the entire ‘carcass’ of the system of international security … It was a very serious step to have been taken … Now, the US is wanting to withdraw from the Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty [1987], also in a unilateral manner. At least in the first instance, they were honest about it. They just withdrew, in a one-sided manner. This time, recognising full well that someone will have to be held responsible, they’re attempting to blame Russia [for alleged violations of the INF Treaty] … why don’t you … go and open the INF Treaty text? Go and read it.
It says in clear text you cannot install land-based missile launchers for missiles of short and medium range. It says so in plain sight. But no – they have placed missile launchers in Romania, and soon in Poland. It’s a direct violation. Go and look at the definition of short and medium range missiles – and then compare them to the capabilities of [missile carrying] drones. It’s the same thing.”
– Vladimir Putin, President of the Russian Federation
Putin goes on to say that Russia is looking to extend the New START / START III Treaty (which ends on February 5th, 2021) but they don’t ‘have’ to. The US has neither initiated renewal talks, nor shown any interest in conducting them:
“Our defense capability is such that it will absolutely guarantee the safety of Russia [against nuclear attack] for quite some time in the future. I have to be direct and say that we have overtaken our opponents in the creation of [defensive] hypersonic weapons. If no one is interested in extending the START-3, ok then we won’t. We have said 100 times already that we are ready to begin the work. No one is talking to us. There are no formal talks being had … And in 2021 – everything will end. Let me focus your attention – there will not be a single instrument that can regulate a [nuclear] arms race. No tool to curtail the imposition of weapons in outer space.”
Putin went on to dramatically spell out the implications:
“It means that we will have [the] constant presence of nuclear weapons above our heads. It will always be up there, constantly. Is this not where we are headed, and very quickly at that? Is anyone going to think or talk about this at all? Does anyone care? No – it’s just radio silence. What about the creation of low-power nuclear weapons? Or regulating strategic missiles without a nuclear warhead [which can be quickly refitted with nuclear ones] … Do you seriousness of the issue and how dangerous it can be?”
Indeed. The situation is very dangerous. If nuclear proliferation continues, combined with the new technological military advances of drones and space-based weapons, it is conceivable that we will have the metaphorical – and now nuclear – Sword of Damocles hanging over our heads at every living moment, only one millions of times more destructive.
Putin went on to make an appeal to have an open, transparent, professional dialogue with all people of the world, especially including all nuclear countries, declared or not. This is an obvious allusion to the rogue nation of Israel, which harbors some 100-400 nuclear weapons, but adheres to a policy of nuclear ambiguity and refuses to state the obvious about its nukes. He ended with a note of optimism, that both Trump and US Secretary of State Pompeo have expressed concern about US defense war spending, and so perhaps the US and Russia could work together.
Nuclear Treaties: Going Forwards … Or Backwards?
All this very much reminds me of the situation in 1962-63, when JFK and Khrushchev were at the helm of their respective nations. After the tense Cuban Missile Crisis nearly ended in nuclear catastrophe, JFK came to the realization that we must choose cooperation and peace, and stop stockpiling and engaging in an arms race out of fear. He spoke about this in an inspirational speech on June 10th, 1963. Sadly, with all the Russophobia, we seem to have broken trust and gone back to the fear-filled days at the height of the Cold War. That is only good for the Military Industrial Complex, the warmongers and the NWO manipulators … and horrible for everyone else.
Any media worth its salt – whether mainstream, alternative or independent – must report and be focused on this highly important issue. The future of humanity is at stake.

UFOS OVER SHIPS IN GULF OF OMAN just prior to the attack on the Japanese ship Kokuka Courageus very likely come from the Stargate discovered in Gulf of Aden off the coast of Yemen. And/or they belong to the U.S. and are a show of force to the Japanese… to demonstrate that the coming war with Iran is a war with China and the Japanese better come on side with us…
The coincidence of the attack on a Japanese vessel…at the same time that the Japanese Prime Minister is in a meeting with the Iranian leader… indicates that the U.S. is throwing down the gauntlet to Japan to get them on board with the program.
The program being, war with Iran is the doorway to war with China. This has been planned . We had word from both Henry Deacon/Arthur Neumann that this was the plan from the beginning. War with China was on the agenda… and then Dan Burisch seconded the notion… The fact is, China needs to get rid of lots of people and war is the easiest way to do this…
It also gives both sides a chance to demonstrate their weapons and superiority.
The ET contingent here also cannot be overstated.
On further consideration, I would say those ships were carrying weapons headed for Yemen to gear up for the coming war with Iran. The weapons were meant to arm the Yemenis in prep for war involving Saudi Arabia and Iran. Saudi Arabia is aligned with Israel as is the U.S. The Yemenis appear to be the bird dog of the U.S… Set up as the Manchurian candidate to spark a war with Iran.
The ships were only damaged because the weapons they carry belong to the U.S. or Israel and all they wanted to do was make a point… not sink the weapons. They are likely confiscating the weapons on those ships as we speak. So the attacks were more cosmetic than aimed at demolishing the ships which points to a kind of warning shot across the bow…
It is also significant that the ship supposedly carrying 75,000 tonnes of naphtha — a flammable hydrocarbon mixture… though hit with somethng., a missile or a torpedo did not blow sky high instead it was evacuated…However, where is the film of the crews of both ships being evacuated?
The attacks on Saudi Arabia by the Houthis drones come as a reaction to the drone attacks by Saudi Arabia on Yemen. Now a Yemen drone has attacked and downed a U.S. drone!
This begins to look like a conflict involving Saudi Arabia, Yemen, the U.S. and a group of ETs coming through the Aden stargate.

Bluewater, Think you are correct about China. In 2003 when President Bush started his “shock and awe” against Iraq, which dropped 320 tonnes of Depleted Uranium on the people there, Delamer Duverus told us that we lost God’s blessing for committing the great crime of adultery against the Iraq people, many genetic mutations of the babies and, of course, cancer in the people. He said for that crime He would no longer protect us and would let the hordes come against us.
A friend called in later to tell us he was listening to the short wave show, this one about dreams, where many people called and related their dreams about Oriental troops invading our nation. We did not have one ourselves, but a number of years prior a man we knew did, they were hiding below in a cave off his property, waiting to attack, this being Arkansas, and we know that there is a base in Harrison, underground, possible alien, but Shadow Government, Hubbard Mission Earth type, and they possibly have tunnels so they can appear anywhere. Possibly is what Denver is all about, too.
Another woman we knew had a dream where she and her two children were hiding in a culvert, watching the boots of Oriental troops passing by.
Still another man in Arkansas dreamed earlier about Oriental troops invading his neighborhood in rural Ozark Arkansas. He recognized them as Korean.
We wonder who are they working with and is this all planned for takeover of America. Who is working with Chinese? We know the Mormons were first in China, starting up manufacturing plants, like we did for Japan, while our own businesses closed down. When we were young it was “made in Japan”, then “made in China”, and now made everywhere but here.
