Is the World Preparing for an Allies Versus Axis Scenario That Will Lead Towards World War III?

The Western corporate media has been harping on the idea that Russia is calling for nuclear war and that President Vladimir Putin is actively preparing for combat with NATO, due to alleged losses in Ukraine; while at the same time, Russia makes claims that the United States is planning false flag nuclear and biological attacks in Ukraine to rally more support against Russia and in favor of direct conflict between the two world powers. Russia has warned the United States that continued weapon transfers to Ukraine would escalate tensions and result in “retaliatory strikes,” and the Biden administration keeps scoffing at such an idea (just keep poking the bear by seeing how much support for Ukraine that Russia will tolerate, and see what happens) and saying that Russia is the one intensifying tensions. American officials are arguing that NATO expansion is just a “boogeyman” that is an excuse for provocation, while to Russia, NATO expansion poses a huge national security risk (no different than if Russian or Chinese troops expanded military movements into Mexico, the Caribbean, or Central America and practiced military exercises of invasion against the United States while pointing missiles at Texas or California). Forgetting about the unprovoked American invasion of Iraq, General Mark Milley said that the international order would be undermined without a harsh response from the West (we cannot allow Russia to get away with the exact same thing that the United States does on a regular basis, now).

The propaganda coming out of the White House, the mainstream media, and federal government agencies, in conjunction with tensions in the Pacific and South China Sea regions, is gradually conditioning Americans to accept the prospects of war (or at least a cold war) with the growing “Axis” powers of Russia and China (both of which would prefer a new global order). The idea of one empire having domination over the entire world is generally a short-term phenomenon, and perhaps the time has come for a world order where global military and economic power is shared by competing forces. Russia and China challenging the U.S. dollar’s supremacy and American imperialism (troops and activities conducted in every corner of the planet to keep noncompliant countries in check and in line with the current economic system) will certainly mean that elites and American politicians will want to challenge the growing alliance (President Biden alluded to such a thing recently), meaning that a world war could be a real possibility. According to Pipa Malmgren (former economic advisor to President George W. Bush), World War III has been occurring for the last few years, albeit covertly in space (satellite warfare), under the sea (submarines), through covert operations around the world, and through cyber warfare (only Russian and Chinese hacks are announced in the corporate media, but American cyberattacks target Russia and China as well). If this is the case, how long until the war becomes overt and noticed by the peasants of the world?

Germany, a country resistant to the idea of sending weapons to Ukraine for fear of having economic ties and oil cut off from Russia, has not only submitted to American pressure to terminate the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, but it has now joined in on weapon transfers to further aggravate Russia. Poland has been sending tanks and weapons to Ukraine, and even though it was ready to send in MiG-29 jets, the United States ended the deal (apparently sending certain weapons, equipment, and vehicles is not provocative, but shipping over airplanes would cause Putin to react more aggressively and draw Americans into the fray), only to renege on its non-support by supplying Ukraine with spare parts for aircraft. Conventional weapons, some of which are being destroyed by Russian strikes in Odessa and other locations throughout Ukraine (hey, we already left behind $7 billion of military equipment in Afghanistan, so why not waste more taxpayer money in Ukraine too?), are still pouring into the war torn country, in a provocative manner (being that Russia has warned the Biden administration that further transfers of weapons would not be acceptable), and if this continues, conflict may erupt between Russia and the United States.

On top of the $13.6 billion that the Biden administration has sent to Ukraine for military and other war effort purposes since March (and billions of other dollars spent since 2014, and earlier, if non-governmental organizations to “democratize” the country are counted), it is now asking Congress for another $30 billion of taxpayer money (money that we do not have, plus, being that this money will almost literally grow on trees, additional printed or typed funds will contribute towards the already out-of-control inflationary situation). In an arrangement of irony, the Biden administration also needs to spend millions of dollars (through the Defense Production Act) to offset the shortage of wheat, barley, and other crops (in a policy of literal socialism, or the control of the means of production) that have been disrupted because of the United States expanding the war in Ukraine (by continuing to send weapons and aid and not seek peace) and placing sanctions against Russia (also a top producer of these plants), which will only contribute to a global food shortage that was in the making far before Putin invaded.

Poland and Romania have hosted American missiles pointed at Russia for years (a renewal of the Cuban Missile Crisis?), and Russia has responded with missiles in Kaliningrad, but will nuclear weapons be placed in NATO countries throughout Europe (such as Poland)? Only time will tell, but what we do not need right now is another arms race.

In a retaliatory move, Russia has suspended natural gas exports to Poland and Bulgaria, and although these countries, along with others like Germany and Austria, are determined to lower their reliance on Russian oil, reality may set in with the demands from their citizenry. The ruble is stronger than ever, and the American-European sanctions have not only failed to deter Putin’s invasion, but they threaten to harm the average people in the West (at a time of surging prices). If the U.S. dollar’s hegemony becomes threatened, this may allow Russia or China to become a contender for replacing the current reserve currency (and petrodollar).

Russia has moved its focus from the northwestern portion of Ukraine, and it is now focusing on the Donbass region, and perhaps the Black Sea strip across to Crimea, and maybe even to Odessa and into Transnistria, which is a breakaway region of Moldova with permanent Russian troops. The narrow strip on Ukraine’s western border had explosions, and it may be possible that just like the United States’ war in Vietnam including airstrikes in Laos, or the invasion of Iraq leading to conflict in Syria, Moldova may become a battleground state of contention (as well as Georgia, with the Russian breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, and perhaps we should reexamine the borders of the former Soviet states, being that pro-Russian sympathies lie in some of these new countries). Bringing Moldova and Georgia into the war would certainly get the American war hawks pumping out more rhetoric to lead us right down the path towards war with Russia, but either way, it appears that the people of Donetsk and Luhansk may end up being liberated from the Nazi-supporting regime in Kiev. A landlocked Ukraine may not be what NATO wants, but because of its intervention and continued expansion, this may be the end result. A nuclear war may be the only thing that can prevent this, but to Americans, is defining the borders between Russia, Ukraine, and a potential new Novorossiya state really worth the pain that would be caused?

Although the cold war between Russia and NATO over Ukraine has the potential for a spillover into a hot war, we already see nations around the world splitting into factions over support for either the American-European financial system or the coming challenger in the form of the Chinese-Russian order. After the United States and Europe attempted to obliterate the Russian economy and conspire with the world to condemn Putin’s operation, India jumped on the opportunity to purchase Russian oil at a discount by utilizing the ruble, which is recovering and potentially challenging the fiat system by moving towards a gold standard. If India, the second largest country by population, joins the new “Axis” powers, this could be troubling to the American politicians who are looking to recruit India to remain under the current system. These three powers have the potential to cause a rift among the global order, and certainly if India falls out of the United States’ orbit, it is only a matter of time before more countries do the same.

Elsewhere in Europe, China recently delivered its HQ-22 anti-aircraft missiles to Russian ally, Serbia, despite pressure from the United States (the stated reason was that Serbian weapons must remain on Western standards, due to the desire to join the European Union, but in reality, it is more likely that the United States does not want Serbia to move closer to the Chinese-Russian alliance). In referencing the 1999 NATO offensive against Serbia, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic seemed to blow off American threats and suggest that the country would no longer be a “punching bag” to the West (it is hypocritical that the United States supported secessionist movements in Serbia and invaded that country to support them, but it condemns Russia for invading Ukraine and supporting breakaway regions there and in Georgia and Moldova). Does this mean that Serbia is considering a move towards the Russia-China “Axis” powers and further away from the West?

A country that did just sign a security pact with China is Solomon Islands. Australia, in an attempt to act tough, said that a Chinese military base in the islands would be considered a “red line” in the sea, but Beijing argued that the feisty land down under was making up false rumors (maybe it got too much inspiration from its native Tasmanian devil). However, it could be possible that China is lying and that Solomon Islands does intend to host an installation and become a China-Russia ally, and, of course, the United States, in typical fashion, threatened Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare not to allow Chinese troops on its soil (the American delegation told the prime minister that the United States would “respond accordingly” to any presence of its enemy in the archipelago).

Aside from the constant NATO and American air interceptions of Russian jets (including the most recent incident over the Baltic and Black Seas, where Russia is conducting its war operations in Ukraine), close encounters have been occurring for several years in the South China Sea, especially with the arrogant “freedom of navigation” operations, where American ships see how close they can get to Chinese-claimed islands without causing too much condemnation (yes, let us act like we own the sea and see how close to war we can get, because, why not?). In addition to military joint exercises with Philippines and the American deployment of expeditionary strike groups into the South China Sea, China’s Liaoning, which was utilized in exercises to intimidate Taiwan, has moved into the area, in conjunction with another aircraft carrier, Shandong (and potentially a third and fourth in the works), to counter the American presence in the sea.

Things are heating up in the South China Sea, but the Chinese threat against Taiwan could be the spark that starts a global war. The island is always on high-alert, and a news station erroneously reported that China had invaded Taiwan (perhaps it was just miscommunication, but the fact that it was on the agenda to be reported could show that the media there knows that a war is on the horizon and released the information prematurely). The United States and others have been claiming that China plans to “reunite” the two countries soon and that an attack is imminent, and if an invasion were to occur, at the very least, the Biden administration would certainly supply the island with weapons, in a similar manner to what it is doing with Ukraine. This entangling alliance, that is not a technical alliance (the United States cannot even officially recognize the Taipei government), could be enough to drag the United States into direct conflict with Beijing. Because Putin was able to attack Ukraine without any serious consequences, Chinese President Xi Jinping may have similar confidence with the approach to its neighbor across the Taiwan Strait.

North Korea has been firing off missiles at an alarming rate, and the dictator there, Kim Jong-Un, might use nuclear weapons in a preemptive manner, if he feels threatened. If a misjudgment occurs near the peninsula with Japan and South Korea (American allies), the United States could be pulled into war, which would then cause China to come to the North’s aid. Kim often exaggerates his power and makes bluff threats against the West to try to legitimize his country’s status as a nuclear power, and this year marks the ninetieth anniversary of North Korea’s army, so it may just be another rhetorical blowing of smoke. However, with everything else going on in the world, we cannot underestimate the hubris and possibility of a misunderstanding that could launch a war.

Most Americans, content by their standard of living (that seems to be deteriorating with the inflationary crisis), think that nuclear war is near impossible because “mutually assured destruction” protects us from it, but most people did not believe that the first two world wars would occur either. All it takes is a small, insignificant event (by world history standards), like the assassination of an archduke, to cause a chain of events that bring us down the road that most would prefer not to travel down. With nationalism, militarization, entangling alliances, and a changing global economic system, the conditions are right for World War III. Will it happen? It is impossible for the average person to know, but we can be sure that elites, politicians, military contractors, bankers, and others would be more than eager to start a global war for their own interests, at the expense of the people, but there is hope that such a thing can be avoided. However, if the Biden administration keeps arming Ukraine and saber-rattling in the South China Sea, the possibility of global conflict grows stronger by the day.
