"Prepare For The Worst:  NATO/US vs Russia"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
 
"Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum."  If you want peace, prepare for war.
 
NATO/US talks with Russia are at an impasse.  Further talks seem pointless.  Meanwhile military movements on both sides say the world is going to war.
 
Russia is requesting a written response from NATO and the U.S. next week, concerning Russia's demands.  Lavro, Russia's Foreign Minister, told the West that Russia has run out of patience.  https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Russia-demands-US-NATO-response-next-week-on-16775022.php
 
Russia is pushing for a quick response from NATO/the US...I believe we already know NATO/the US will hold firm...war is inevitable...but when will it start.  Posturing and positioning on both sides tells us war is SOON.  
 
Lots going on in Russia, Ukraine, NATO - hard to keep up with all the troop and equipment movements.  But plenty of troops and tanks and fighter jets and artillery, etc. are on the move.
 
The risk of war continues to escalate ...
 
"Today, Ukraine fields the strongest active Army in Europe - it is larger, more ready with more combat experience than the armies of the last ten countries to join NATO - combined.  The active force equals 40 Battalion Tactical Groups, backed up by 100,000 reservists with experience at the front, and units at every level led by a new generation of young aggressive officers who have fought with the Russians, know their weakness and are not afraid to exploit them....NATO would gain more from having Ukraine on its side than Ukraine would get from being in NATO."  "..Russian weapons have a qualitative edge...It appears that units from the central and Southern Military Districts (Russian) may be loading up for forward movement which could bring the Russian invasion force up to 100 Battalion Tactical Groups giving them more than a two-to-one force ratio by the end of January."  And Ukraine's air force is small and much out numbered by Russia's.  Plus Russia has a fleet in the Black Sea.  And Russia has positioned her Iskander missiles and heavy caliber guns and mortars along Ukraine's border - being able to deliver tactical nukes and chemical warheads.

We would think that any war would involve cyber attacks before the bombs fall.  
 
The EU is conducting a six-week exercise to help prepare Europe for a Russian cyberattack.
 
Ukraine is reporting cyberattacks on government websites.  The Ukraine Foreign Minister is reporting a "major cyberattack" on government websites.. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/cyberattack-in-ukraine-targets-government-websites/ar-AASN0r9
 
The Ukrainian Information Ministry is reporting that their "first data suggests" this cyberattack was carried out by Russia.
 
There are also report of Poland's location of military equipment, units, etc being hacked.
 
The EU is calling for emergency EU meeting in response to this.
 
Russia is reporting their sudden 'combat readiness' checks for troops in their Eastern Military District.

Russian train loads of mortars, tanks, etc. have been seen moving towards Ukraine.  The Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov has threatened Ukraine, the US, Finland, Sweden and NATO countries.  Lavrov told Sweden and Finland that if they enter an alliance with NATO that 'disrespects Russian sovereignty' Russia 'will react'.
 
The Russian Deputy Parliament President and Head of the Russian delegation met with journalists and told them Russia will expand her borders to that of 1917, which includes the Baltic states and Finland."
 
The U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (Connecticut) is reporting significant intelligence that a Russian invasion of Ukraine is "perhaps imminent".  https://twitter.com/IntelDoge/status/1481709393104285706?t=Q0CIw0OcCA4DA4JkAnmrGQ&s=19
 
Lithuania has raised its military readiness due "heightened tensions between Russis, NATO and Ukraine, the Baltic country's defense chief, Valdemaras, Rupsys, said on Thursday."  "Rupsys's remarks also echoed a statement by Polish foreign minister Zbigniew Rau who said Europe is closer to war than it has been in decades."  "It seems that the risk of war in the OSCE area is now greater than ever before in the last 30 years," Rau said to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in Vienna."  And Denmark is sending more F-16 fighter jets to the Baltic countries along with a navy frigate.
 
"...military experts were preparing options in case tensions over Ukraine can not be defused.  U.S. Ambrassador Michael Carpenter said after talks with Russia in Vienna that the West should prepare for a possible escalation in tensions with Moscow. "The drumbeat of war is sounding loud, and the rhetoric has gotten rather shrill", he told reporters.  Russia is warning of possible "catastrophic consequences" if "the two sides could not agree on what Russia has termed security red lines..."  And Russia has not stopped her troop and equipment build up.  Neither has NATO/the U.S.
 
 
 
As we can see from just these few links to news in Europe that countries there are preparing to take on Russia.  And China will probably move on Taiwan when Russia moves on Ukraine.
 
And Russia and China are major enemies of the U.S.  The U.S. can not sustain a multi-front war.  I believe that war is coming to America's shores.  Cyberattacks will definitely be part of any attack.
 
We can see how birth pangs are increasing all over the planet -  inflation, supply chain disruptions, vaccine mandates/lockdown, rumors of wars, .....and throw in the extreme weather events and large earthquakes....
 
I think it is impossible to deny that we are fast approaching The End Times.  
 
I believe that this bioweapon Covid virus (and its variants) and the bioweapon mRNA 'vaccine' are all part of the birth pangs pushing us into the Tribulation, leading up to the mark of the beast.
 
 
Prepare as best you can.  But the most important preparation is for your place in Eternity.  Everyone will have chosen a side in the near future. 
 
"The night is far spent, the day is at hand.  Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness and let put on the armor of light."  Romans 13:12
 
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
