"Something Up With The Norway Intelligence Service Report?  False Flag Coming?"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
Something just isn't right with this story....I reported on this in another Doves letter today, "Some Interesting News Articles...The information coming out of Norway's Intelligence Service report on February 13 isn't sitting well....
 
"Warships in the Russian navy's Northern Fleet have been deployed with tactical nuclear weapons, the Norwegian Intelligence Service said in a report Monday.  The intelligence agency noted the presence of the weapons on the vessels in its annual report." 
 
It is believed that this is the first time in 30 years the fleet has gone to sea with the nuclear weapons on board.  "A central part of the nuclear capabilities is located on the North Fleet's submarines and surface vessels," the report said.  Norway's intelligence went on to describe the "particularly serious threat" that Russia's tactical weapons pose to NATO countries."
 
"In addition, Russia has, among other things, underwater capabilities, anti-satellite weapons and cyber tools that can threaten Norway and NATO," the report said.  The Soviet Union's Northern Fleet warships often went to sea equipped with nuclear weapons during the Cold War, Politico reported.  But the latest development reportedly marks the first time the Russian Federation has deployed the ships with nuclear weapons."
 
"With weakened conventional capability, the importance of nuclear weapons for Russia has increased significantly," the report said.  "The Russian strategic and regional deterrent forces have thus become increasingly important for the Russian military power."
 
"In a January post on his Telegram channel, Medvedev invoked the possibility of nuclear war should Russia be defeated in Ukraine.  "Defeat of a nuclear power in a conventional war may trigger a nuclear war," he wrote."

"Norway's intelligence report warned about the dangers of NATO being directly drawn into the war in Ukraine due to "unintended incidents."
Russian Warships Armed With Nuclear Weapons Deployed: Norway
 
OK - this is being reported by Norwegian Intelligence Service and this story has gone far and wide - being reported by the Jerusalem Post, Yahoo News, Newsweek, Dailystar UK, MSN, Pravda.ru (english), AOL News, EurAsia Times, Independent (Ukraine), etc.
 
Some articles quote the Intelligence Report as the Northern Fleet is going to the Baltic Sea.
"Russia has started deploying tactical nuclear weapons-armed vessels in the Baltic Sea for the first time in three decades, according to a Norwegian intelligence report."

Maybe the Northern Fleet had never been to the Baltic Sea...well, here's an article about three of the largest warships of Russia's Northern Fleet sailing to the Baltic Sea for combat training for surface warships.  These warships were the missile cruiser Marshall Ustinov, the anti-submarine ship Vice-Admiral Kulakov and the new landing ship Pyotr Mogunov.  This article is dated June 29, 2021.  The Marshall Ustinov P-1000 vulcan supersonic anti-ship missiles are capable of carrying nuclear warheads.

According to the Russian Defence Ministry, "The Northern Fleet is made up of 26 submarines, 10 surface combatant ships, 16 patrol and coastal vessels, eight mine warfare/mine countermeasures ships and eight amphibious platforms, plus fighter jets, anti-submarine aircraft and air defense systems, according to the 2023 Military Balance report by the International Institute for Strategic Studies."
Russia to lengthen submarine patrols, says Norwegian intel report
 
Here's an article in Yahoo news about the same Norwegian intelligence report released on February 13, 2023.  Nowhere in this article does it mention "Warships in the Russian navy's Northern Fleet have been deployed with tactical nuclear weapons."  In fact, the title of the article is 'Russia to lengthen submarine patrols'.  One would think if Russia was deploying tactical nukes on their ships for the first time in 30 years, this would have been in this article.
 
And it's quite telling that this article mentions nothing about the new deployment of the Northern Fleet with tactical nuclear weapons - that 'this hasn't happened for thirty years', but it does state that "...that if Russia does kick off an effort to arm additional Northern Fleet vessels with nuclear weapons...it would do so with the introduction of new Borei-class and Yasen-class submarines, and with the battlecruiser Admiral Nakhimov after it returns for repairs."  This article admits the Northern Fleet has nuclear armed vessels - and how important these nuclear weapons are to "strategic deterrence forces".  And this article states, the Norwegian agency, "does not foresee any change in the way Russia is arming the Northern Fleet's surface ships."
Russia to lengthen submarine patrols, says Norwegian intel report
 
This article admits that the Northern Fleet vessels have nuclear weapons and they are important for deterrence.  They didn't just get them. The article is dated February 16, 2023.
 
So when the Northern Fleet deploys - they always deploy with nuclear weapons.  Nothing changed from the Soviet Union Navy to the Russian Federation Navy.  U.S. Navy surface warships carry nuclear weapons - have for decades. U.S. submarines carry nuclear warheads - have for years.  Why would Russian warships be any different?   We know that Russian submarines have nukes on board.  We've seen that reported in various Russian naval war games and military exercises over the years.  Even the new Belgorod submarine is said to have the Poseidon nuclear missiles on board.
 
I suppose governments can announce 'no more tactical nukes' as President George H.W. Bush did in September 1991 - he "announced the withdrawal of all tactical nuclear weapons from submarines, surface ships, and land-based aircraft.  These weapons were kept in reserve and eventually destroyed, and today the only nuclear weapons remaining the fleet are those arming Trident II D-5 submarine-launched ballistic missiles."  This article is dated August 2020.
Tactical Nuclear Weapons at Sea | Proceedings - August 2020 Vol. 146/8/1,410
 
Yet, I know for a fact, these weapons were not removed from our ships or submarines.  Just political grandstanding by Bush.
And in this article, it says "At present, there is no clear requirement to reintroduce tactical nuclear weapons at sea.  However, intelligence reports suggest Russian ships and subs have resumed carrying such weapons on routine patrols."  This article is dated August 2020.
 
This information about the Northern Fleet deploying with tactical nukes into the Baltic Sea for the first time in 30 years came supposedly from a Norwegian Intelligence Service report - here is the link to this report that was in one of the many articles on this.  I translated parts of it - but not all of it (difficult to get through due to numerous sections and I don't read Norwegian) - and it was basically just what was going on in Ukraine and what Russia was doing in Ukraine.  And their assessment of the invasion and the future.  I saw nothing about them noting Russia putting tactical nukes on their Northern Fleet ships now.  The yahoo news article mentions nothing about this either.

Something definitely isn't adding up with this news. Did someone doctor up the intelligence report?  Did NATO?  Did the U.S.?  And then the various news outlets were sent the story to report to the world...
 
The Nord Stream pipelines that were blown up are in the Baltic Sea.  The same sea these now nuclear armed Russian ships have been deployed to, supposedly....
 
Norway is the same country that Seymour Hersh reported in his 'Nord Stream pipeline attack' breaking story - the Norwegian navy and the Americans figured out where, how to plant explosive devices on the pipelines.  Then a Norwegian Navy P8 dropped a sonar buoy.  And a few hours later, the C4 explosives blew up putting 3 of the 4 pipelines out of commission.

Why would Norway, NATO, the U.S. or "someone" add something to this intelligence report that was not true (no tactical nukes for 30 years) - and maybe not even there in the first place?  They know Russia has been threatening to use tactical nukes 'if pushed into a corner'.  Is Norway, NATO, the U.S. setting the stage for a false flag?  Will they set off tactical nukes in cities in Europe?  And point to Russia?
 
Russia has been saying they will do something on Feb 24 to get the world's attention...will the West pre-empt them (no pun intended) on this?  "Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned that Moscow would take great measures to overshadow anti-Russia events allegedly being planned by the West to mark the war's anniversary on Feb. 24."
Russia warns it will 'gain world's attention' year into war

I absolutely do not trust the U.S. and NATO.  Especially with the warmongers in Washington and various countries in Europe.  
 
Lately I've seen a US general say that the support for the Ukraine was is "slipping" - uh oh!

Is there a better way to get 110% for a war against Russia than creating a false flag - the use of a tactical nuke - on a capitol city?  Or several?  And then blame Russia.  
 
Desperate people do desperate things.
 
We are getting closer and closer to nuclear war.  False flags are nothing new to manipulate the masses.
 
"A false flag is a political or military action carried out with the intention of blaming an opponent for it.  Nations have often done this by staging a real or simulated attack on their own side and saying the enemy did it, as a pretext for going to war."
