Scott Ritter, erstwhile UN atomic weapons inspector, hears the cancer-stricken voice of Johnny Cash, speaking these haunting words at the end of his song "The Man Comes Around".
(Article Deborah L. Armstrong republished with Medium.com)
"This is what we live in today," said a erstwhile US Marine intelligence officer at a press conference aptly titled "Can atomic warfare be avoided?"
"This is not any look into the future of hell's earth," Ritter continued. "Death is on a light horse coming to us erstwhile we speak! And if you don't admit it, if you're not aware of it, then you're just going to be blessed in the abyss."
Ritter was 1 of the 5 panelists who spoke at an online conference on January 8, which she gave Diane Sare (I-NY), a U.S. legislature candidate from fresh York. There were 3 another speakers too Ritter and Sare:
Helga Zepp-LaRouche, widow of American political activist Lyndon LaRouche, besides German activist and founder of the Schiller Institute.
Colonel Richard Black, decorated Vietnam War veteran and Republican politician who served in the Virginia State Senate.
Steven Starr, erstwhile manager of atomic Weapons in the Missouri University Clinical investigation Programme and elder Scientist in Physicians for Social Responsibility, who collaborated with abroad governments to reduce atomic weapons stocks worldwide.

Webinar, which can be viewed on Rumble, was organised in consequence to fresh events that escalate tensions between Russia and the US and its NATO allies. fresh comments, specified as those of erstwhile German Chancellor Angela Merkel and erstwhile French president Francois Hollande, indicate that the peace agreements of Minsk II never afraid peace and alternatively aimed to buy Ukraine more time to defend itself against Russia and separatist republics in the Donbas region.
At this point Russia may seem to have no sense to negociate due to the fact that it is known that the US and their allies did not negociate in good faith. The U.S./UK/NATO Alliance is presently sending armored vehicles to Ukraine, and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenski cynically rejected the Orthodox Christmas ceasefire offered by Russian president Vladimir Putin. The legislature candidate Diane Sare thinks it's up to us to change US policy if we want to avoid atomic confrontation with Russia, which would be an event at the level of extinction (ELE).
"In a literal sense we are on the brink of a thermonuclear war," Diane said during her first comments, "mainly as a consequence of Western politics, especially the United States. And as American citizens, we have any control over it."
How much control the Americans have over the increasingly apocalyptic direction the US has taken in this replacement war with Russia is simply a question of debate, but Sare and another panelists had any ideas. "The aim is to change politics so that we avoid a direct threat to human civilization" - said Sarah.
"We look at the end of humanity. That's what danger means. And now we are moving so fast towards escalation," said Helga Zepp-LaRouche, who advocates a diplomatic solution and believes that the best hope we have could be the offer of Pope Francis, "who said he would offer the Vatican's place as a place of peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia without any preconditions."
Zepp-Larouche considers that a deficiency of preconditions is essential if any diplomatic agreement is to be reached. Schiller Institute, as he says, started mailing campaign, which has already collected signatures of over 100 prominent people from 37 countries. She besides asked those present to sign the letter. If the Pope sees that there is support for his campaign, says Zepp-Larouche, it may be possible "to exert global force on the United States, on another NATO countries".
"And frankly, I think at this point," she continued, "the only thing that would aid halt it is seeing millions of people all over the planet on the streets. As you know, we are very, very far from it."
Indeed, it seems that peaceful protests went to the same place where all the flowers and children of the 1970s flowers went. Only a fewer dedicated souls proceed to protest against the war, and their lonely voices are frequently stifled by the gnarly choir of sages who in the drums of war, and the roar of armored vehicles and tanks from NATO heading for Ukraine.
Zepp-LaRouche besides referred to the fresh comments of erstwhile Russian president Dmitri Medvedev, indicating that hypersonic atomic missiles were deployed off the coast of the US and Europe. "Basically coming so fast," she said, "the president of the United States would not even have time to enter Air Force One".
Colonel Richard Black, who spoke through a previously recorded message, believes that any are excited about the war due to the fact that they feel that Putin should not be allowed to "get away". "The War on Terrorism," he says, was utilized to "discharge the vigor of the American Constitution and reduce the rights of American citizens and citizens around the world".
But the latest example of terror, Black pointed out, was the attack on the Nordstream pipelines that Russia was blamed for, despite evidence that the culprit was the NATO country. "Just moments after these mass detonations," he said, "the text was intercepted. It was handed over by British Prime Minister Liz Truss, addressed to Secretary of State Tony Blinken, and simply said "ready". It was the full sum of the messages."
"This was 1 of the biggest terrorist attacks in history" - continued Black. Western media immediately threw themselves at the full thing and accused Russia of destroying 1 of the top engineering achievements in history. someway the Russians did it. Why? due to the fact that the Russians always do. And if the elections don't go the way of the Deep State, the Russians did. It's all easy to delegate to the Russians. The claim doesn't should be rational. It doesn't should be logical. It could be completely irrational. Just like it was in this case."
Indeed, the masses seem besides eager to accept without uncertainty that the "Russians" destroyed 1 of their most valuable economical rescue lines for Europe just due to the fact that the Russians are simply "really bad people who do truly bad things," Black said. And the lie, no substance how illogical or irrational, is repeated over and over again until people believe it. Especially erstwhile all another explanations are censored.
No uncertainty Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels would be very arrogant of this remarkable accomplishment of modern intelligence and its network of agents and assets in mainstream media.

"We are on the verge of a fusion war," said Major Scott Ritter. He recalled his erstwhile mentor, General Polk, who served under president John F. Kennedy during the Cuban crisis. "You know how we avoided war during the Cuban crisis? Diplomacy. Old-fashioned diplomacy. Americans talk to Russians and Russians talk to Americans".
At the time, Ritter says, there were proven "reverse channels" utilized by country leaders to talk erstwhile authoritative channels no longer worked. "But we don't talk today. Yes, our intelligence bosses meet in Ankara and another places in the world, but this is not a negotiation. We are not only in the process of expanding tensions, but we deficiency the mechanisms to resolve these tensions. There are no diplomatic actions worthy of this name between the US and Russia today".
Ritter said he had late had lunch with the Russian ambassador to the US, Anatoly Antonov, who negotiated the fresh START Treaty with Barack Obama, the last treaty on arms control between the US and Russia. But now, as Ritter says, the Russian ambassador sits in a "golden cage" here in the US and "no 1 talks to him".
"No 1 talks about disarmament, everyone talks about the arms race," Ritter said. And although our alleged "representatives" at the Capitol believe in the course chosen by the US, which increasingly brings us closer to Armageddon, Ritter believes they are being deceived. "The Russians will annihilate us in a atomic conflict. There is no debate about it, there is no uncertainty about it."

At any point, as Ritter says, there was a belief that the U.S. could start a "decaptitional blow" that would invalidate Russia's leadership, and that our rocket defence strategy could defend the planet from an inevitable retaliatory attack by the Russian regional system, known as a "dead hand".
"Well, the Russians not only tested us in this matter, but they checked us in this matter," he said. "They have guns and are deployed today. It's not a theoretical weapon. A real weapon utilized to invalidate all of this. So America doesn't stand a chance. If we had always initiated specified a thing, we would have been destroyed before the people who initiated it realized they had failed! So fast would be Russian retaliation."
Ritter said the U.S. is ready to spend billions of dollars on upgrading their weapons in hopes of fitting into Russian capabilities. "But we can't," he said, "and I'll tell you without a shadow of a doubt, without fear of contradiction: any weapon strategy we're talking about present to replace the existing triadis not adequate for this task. It won't work, and they don't intimidate the Russians."
Ritter, who late wrote a book titled Disarmament in Perestroika Times, says that times were equally dangerous in the 1980s. - but we were talking. The US and Russia were negotiating. "We invented a treaty," he said. "Why? due to the fact that the negotiators were veterans. They've been doing this for a long time."
Ritter says that the people who negotiated START and INF treaties were the same who negotiated SALT 1 in the 1960s and SALT 2 in the 1970s. They were experienced negotiators who had previously successfully drawn up treaties. But since then, the US has withdrawn from everything but the fresh START Treaty, which, as Ritter says, the US and NATO "swindle" regularly.
"Why in the name of God would Russia sit with the United States for anything? Anything? We're liars. We're frauds. We cannot be trusted," Ritter said, adding that NATO countries, specified as France and Germany, cannot be trusted as interlocutors, and the UN safety Council cannot be trusted due to the fact that it approved Minsk II's peace agreements, which proved to be fiction at all times.
"Helga, I want you good luck in the Vatican, I truly do it" - Ritter said, directing his comment to Helga Zepp LaRouche. "And I hope you can prove me wrong. I want you to prove me wrong. I want you to come up with a appropriate negotiating forum that actually works, but I'm here to tell you that Russia never, ever, ever will not negociate with anyone about Ukraine.
Ritter believes that the only way to bring U.S./NATO to the negotiating table is by comparing the defeat of the U.S. to Japan in 1945, where the choice was to "sign a paper or die".

"NATO loses. The question is whether NATO will lose gracefully?" asked Ritter and referred to the poem by Dylan Thomas. "Is NATO willing to "walk mildly to a good night"? Or is NATO going to "excited, angry against the dying of light"? And that's the choice, unfortunately, that's what we come down to. If NATO decides to "agree, rage against the dying of light," ladies and gentlemen, it was a pleasance to meet you. The year 2023 will be the last year we all live on this planet. Kiss your loved ones goodbye. Do what you gotta do, it's over."
Ritter believes that there is no longer any hope of negotiating due to the fact that Russia can no longer trust the US or NATO. From this point on, he believes that Russia will not search to negotiate. She'll prosecute victory. And if NATO and the US don't find a way to accept it gracefully, we're all doomed to atomic destruction.
I'd like to prove Ritter wrong. However, given Ukraine's rejection of the Christmas truce with Russia, the likelihood of negotiations seems far more distant than ever. And the fact that younger generations are not as aware of the dangers of atomic war as those of us who grew up in the Cold War is besides the "perfect storm".
Diane Sare recalled the peace efforts made by the Kennedy administration in these shocking 1960s. She played a fragment of Kennedy's inaugural speech, which can be seen here.
Let's compare this to the hawk speech of our current leaders.
Finally, to those nations who want to become our opponents, we do not make a promise, but a request: that both sides begin to search peace again before the dark forces of demolition unleashed by discipline consume all mankind in planned or accidental self-destruction. We dare not tempt them with weakness. due to the fact that only if our weapons are adequate beyond uncertainty can we be certain beyond uncertainty that they will never be used.
But 2 large and powerful groups of nations cannot draw comfort from our current course—both sides burdened with the cost of modern weapons, both rightly afraid about the constant spread of a deadly atom, but both race to change this uncertain balance of panic that stops the hand of the final war of humanity.
So let's start again – remembering on both sides that kindness is not a sign of weakness, and honesty is always subject to evidence. Let's never negociate out of fear. But let us never be afraid to negotiate."
— John F. Kennedy, opening speech, 1961.
"How do we fight?" Sarah asked. He believes that all the files on Kennedy's execution must be revealed, "and the agencies active in this assassination must be cleared of their criminal elements and held accountable to the American people or abolished."
But this task, warns, is besides dangerous for a single president to handle. yet Kennedy expressed his intention to effort shortly before he was murdered. "It can only happen as a move," said Sarah.
Sare attributes Oliver Stone's movie "JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass" to generating public request for disclosure of papers regarding the President's assassination. any documents were revealed, but heavy edited. Others that were to be released were halted, first by president Trump and then by president Biden.

"We must end the reign of panic of intelligence agencies in this country," said Sarah, "if we want the human race to survive, let alone freedom. Anyone who followed what happened to the Twitter files knows that. But I'd say it's deeper. Who tells the intelligence agencies what to do? Who's backing Hollywood? Who owns the news media? Who controls universities? Who pays for the run of millionaires in Congress? City of London and Wall Street. And that's why Lyndon LaRouche was specified a threat. He said, "We gotta bankrupt Wall Street and bury it so deep that the stench doesn't choke us!"
Sarah believes that JFK's papers will supply adequate evidence that our nation has become untrustworthy to its people and can open the door to legal action. "The United States must return to the commitment and the rule that not only all men are equal, but humanity is good. Life is good."
Sare wants the United States to make an economy that is beneficial to everyone that would destruct poorness caused by incorrect policies. "All this must be changed in a short time. We must bring the strategy to bankruptcy, reorganization. Billionaires should pay for this. They'll live. possibly they'll live in prison. But they will live."
But only cockroaches can live if Ukrainian conflict turns into Armageddon. Steven Starr, who regularly lectures students on the realities of modern atomic war, is shocked at how naive young people are these days.
"They truly have no thought what atomic weapons are or what atomic war would mean," said Starr. "It's like a part of sunshine. And erstwhile it detonates, in 1 second it will make a fireball, and the surface of the fireball is actually hotter than the surface of the sun. If you happen to be below this, you'll be vaporized."
