Re: Trudeau says Ukraine can strike deep into Russia with NATO arms, Putin hints at war, Sept. 14
Justin Trudeau is gambling with our lives when he endorses Ukraine striking deep inside Russia. Everyone knowledgeable about these weapons understands they are U.S., U.K., French and German systems dependent on satellite targeting, complex communication systems and technicians, none of which are under the control of Ukraine, which is merely a NATO proxy state. A Ukrainian soldier is called in only at the last moment to press the “launch” button.
What Trudeau is actually endorsing are direct U.S./ NATO attacks on Russia, which the Russian government views as acts of war and against which it promises to retaliate. Thus, the world is only steps away from a nuclear confrontation that could wipe out all of humanity.
Trudeau should dissociate Canada from this latest NATO escalation, stop funding the war and do what he has foolishly refused to do for more than two years: dial up President Vladimir Putin to discover what it would take to stop the killing before the conflict mushrooms into a nuclear Armageddon.
