US 'sleepwalking' into WWIII, experts warn nation is underprepared: 'We do not have our Churchill'

[HARK!]

The U.S. is "sleepwalking" into a global war against its top adversaries united under an axis of "malign partnerships," and experts are sounding the alarm that neither the U.S. military nor the public are prepared for World War III.

In late July, a body of non-governmental national security experts, first tasked by Congress in 2022 under the Commission on the National Defense Strategy, released an evaluation of the U.S.’ overall security strategy put forward by the Biden administration two years ago.

The commission found that after decades of post-Cold War policies that cut defense spending and reduced investments in the security sector, Washington, D.C., is "not prepared" to counter Beijing in open conflict, let alone a multi-front war against China, Iran, North Korea and Russia.

US 'sleepwalking' into WWIII, experts warn nation is underprepared: 'We do not have our Churchill'

Security experts are warning that the U.S. is not prepared to engage in open conflict with China for more than a few weeks, let alone a multi-front war also involving Russia, Iran and North Korea.

It's about time that people started waking up. I've been telling people all year that WWIII has already started. Most everyone I tell can't see it. These wars don't start with a declaration, nor a flash bulb event. They mission creep. I doubt that there is any turning back at this point. The warmongers want full blown war.

they were afraid of the nuques before, what happened?, they lost fear of total destruction?, seem the hunger for greed power and the pride never ends. Thing is they will be the first to be in a bunker playing war chess if something happens.

Yes. the US Oligarchs have made sure that they have bunkers and provisions for themselves; but not for the people whom they serve. Meanwhile our adversaries have been digging in. They have extensive bunkers for all.

Why would the US need a "Churchill"?

I seriously doubt the US is not taking stock of current events. We just moved troops to Alaska because Russia has been slipping over their line. No one thinks China is not a threat. This piece is simply more fear from FOX and an advertisement for more in our military budget. We get it. Thinking people recognize the situation. Let's keep our heads, though, and not feed on propaganda.

Why would you want a Churchill? He more than anyone was responsible for losing the British Empire by a dogmatic determination to beat Germany at any cost. Not that I would mind the American Empire falling apart, but most Americans seem to be on board with the whole idea of American global Hegemony so it just doesn't make sense to me.

Our global hegemony is falling. China and India are the second and third strongest industrial powers, and they are buying gold and silver at monumental rates, as BRICS stands to replace the US dollar as the world's reserve currency. When considering the combined populations of those two nations, the populations, of the remaining nations combined, is dwarfed. The average lifespan of fiat currencies is about 35 years, and as the Dollar has been devalued to about 2% of it's worth, it's overdue to reach hyperinflation. Imperialism is expensive. Nations don't like to be controlled by outside nations.The US is not the first nation to devalue it's currency to fund an Imperialist military. This cycle has repeated for thousands of years.

When all else fails; they take you to war.

This precisely why you don't want a Churchill. Total war is never worth it.

Where we get that budget. on funny money? The smart money in the world is ditching the dollar. One major factor that is temporarily propping up the dollar, is that poorer nations, are buying into the USD to hedge against the hyperinflation of their fiat currencies.

According to your article, the GOP current tendency toward isolationism isn't helping, either (that was the US position before WWII).

Why is the smart money on ditching the dollar?

his precisely why you don't want a Churchill. Total war is never worth it.

Not all that long ago, the numbers of lives lost in all out wars were measured in the thousands. In the last century it was measured in millions. If it happens again; it will be measured in billions; and it will set us back to the horse and buggy days.

The underdeveloped countries countries will adapt more readily than the nations who have become dependent on technology to sustain themselves.

The nations with the strongest armies need to find a way to live harmoniously as the world goes through this economic shift.

The is a difference between being an isolationist, and a non-interventionist.

Neither describe the majority of the GOP. You can take this conversation down the partisan road, as civilization as we know it stands in jeopardy; but the fact is that the power hungry want war.

Here is my prediction of the potential possibilities.

1.) If Harris wins, the fireworks start in Europe.
2.) If Trump wins; the fireworks start in the Middle East.
3.) Our adversaries use instability of the transition of Administrations, to avoid being the victims of a first strike, and go full tilt before the transition.

On our present course, full blown war is inevitable. I believe that there are two things that can stop it.

1.) Our heavenly father.
2.) If the people around the world set politics aside and stand together for peace.

Okay, non-interventionist. Those are all interesting possibilities, and I definitely agree that bad-politics are killing us, and we need to work towards peace. It's not wise for us to be so divided because it does give our enemies a potential foothold (although it's pretty much an "actual foothold" at this point).

Our politicians keep us divided. It serves their interests. They don't have our best interests at heart. They cling to power.

It's in the interest of everyone in this world, for everyone in this world, to cry out in one voice, to demand peace.

Who was in charge of Germany at the time Churchill wanted to beat Germany?
Was surrendering to Germany really an option, or did the Nazis need to be defeated?

Why did Germany feel the need to go to war to begin with?

These matters can be settled in two ways.

One is by talking, and reaching a peaceful, equitable, solution.

The other is by force.

When the talking stops, the violence begins.

I don't believe Hitler was asking Churchill for an unconditional surrender. Rather it was the allies who consistently demanded unconditional surrender of Germany.

I'm so happy that the world is coming around to treating german fascists nicely again, considering that we are about 2 election cycles away from being ruled by them again.

We also won't start a war as long as you give us everything we demand. Pinky promise.

People whom are genuinely sympathetic to National Socialism are still a minority and will hopefully remain that way. What is growing however is a sense that WW2 was not everything we were taught it to be. That the mythological framing which surrounds it, of a conflict of the good guys vs the bad guys is not helpful and likely lead to it being as destructive as it was. You shouldn't give your enemies whatever they want, but recognizing strategic interests and your own limited capacities is what smart nations.

Churchill stated that it was his intention to preserve the British Empire. He was the one who ultimately destroyed the Empire by committing it to a Total war which he could not win on his own. It was a foolish move on his part to continue the war when France was beaten because he could only continue the war by selling out British interests and assets to America in order to get them into the war.

Nobody cares that WW3 approaches. NoBoDy CaReS.

This all reminds me of the series on Hulu, We were the Lucky Ones. A Jewish family just sits around while calamity approaches.

Did you ever explore the hell with weeping and gnashing of teeth? Funny how that hell is not in the old testament. It seems to be only associated with the return of Jesus. Could this hell be just a fatal dose of radiation? The parable of the talents in Matthew 25 hints at just such a thing.

That is what a fatal dose of radiation will bring. In the following video, at the 30 second mark we see the guy in bed screaming from the unimaginable pain. He is in a hospital, too. It will last for days.

Actually, both the First and Second World Wars started with declarations. The flashpoint for WW1 was the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand; for WW2, the invasion of Poland.

It's just history. We all know this stuff.

The smart money in the world is ditching the dollar. One major factor that is temporarily propping up the dollar, is that poorer nations, are buying into the USD to hedge against the hyperinflation of their fiat currencies.

If the first statement was true the dollar would be falling against other currencies. This does not appear to be happening. Poorer nations would not be keen on buying a falling/failing currency any more than richer ones.
