Almost two full years into Russia's invasion of Ukraine and with the Middle East teetering on the brink of disaster following Hamas' October 7th attacks on Israel, the threat of a wider war looms large on the horizon.
Prime ministers, defence secretaries and military chiefs have claimed that the threat of a major conflict is greater now than at any other time since the Cuban Missile Crisis.
European governments one after the other have issued grave warnings to their citizens to start preparing for a fight.
And now, NATO countries are gearing up for one of their largest-ever drills, with 90,000 troops from all corners of the continent and the United States set to embark upon Herculean war games - a last-ditch effort to display their military might before Vladimir Putin and any other potential threats.
All of this comes as Admiral Rob Bauer, the chairman of NATO's Military Committee, urged governments and civilians alike to prepare for a 'wholesale change' in their lives, predicting a large-scale armed conflict in the next 20 years.
Retired Brigadier General Kevin Ryan told MailOnline: 'In 2024, Russia's defence spending will grow to $140 billion - a third of the national budget.
'These changes do not make sense if they are aimed solely at the current adversary – Ukraine – a country one-third the population of Russia and barely holding its own.
'The changes only make sense if Russia is preparing for a war against a major foe, like NATO.'
Now, with the help of a team of former military chiefs and security experts, MailOnline examines how a Russian assault of Europe could unfold before 2044.
Phase One: Cyber warfare and missile strikes
The technological capabilities harboured by bad actors around the world are growing exponentially.
Cyber attacks are now a near-daily occurrence...

Sure, let me know who's territory we annexed recently.
They’re executing Operation Scare the Hell Out of the Plebes.
You seem more concerned abut defending Ukraine’s border than ours. Maybe you should go over there and kill Russians. We are not the world’s policeman.
You're more likely to see neo-liberals decorating lampposts in the capitals of Europe.
Its NOT being the "world’s policeman", its helping the enemy of our enemy, without any of our troops in harm's way.
Destroying our enemies military without one US injury or death is a worthwhile goal and an important warning to China. US spent 5% of its military budget(Donating mostly older weapons) to destroy half of Russia’s military capability with the help of Ukraine.
I thought Russia is broke, Putin is on his deathbed and the Russian military is in mutiny.
The Deep State propagandists need to get their narratives straight.
China is laughing at us.
We are trying to make the world safe for perverts.
They will make sure that never happens.
Now, with the help of a team of former military chiefs and security experts, MailOnline examines how a Russian assault of Europe could unfold before 2044.
When the “news” becomes fully fictional, “reporting” means creative writing and foretelling a future becomes, as a couple of the comments on Daily Mail say, “twaddle.”
One observes that featured in this article is Ben Hodges, who publicly endorsed Biden in the 2020 election cycle.
So we’re in Democrat Central (UK subsidiary), at this point. And Hodges is beating the war drums for Biden (and probably Clinton):
Imagine being ruled by GloboHomo Satanists who think you’re stupid enough to give them power or this could happen.
The problems are in the West.
Our regime has mass murdered millions of innocent human beings the past 20 years. Fraud and selective outrage much?
If Europe doesn’t end its socialist/LGBT/green-destruction policies, the USA had best be there joining Ivan in the invasion.
not only is Iran about to have the bomb they are testing missiles to reach europe.
In 20 years they will have them.
And then they can join the list alongside Europe's France and Great Britain.
As long as we don’t have to go through the not-so-great reset, fine.
“Russia was still mostly a paper bear.”
I know, that’s why NATO is SCREAMING about being out of weapons!
“Well yea, because they gave too many to Ukraine without having the manufacturing capability to quickly restock.”
EXACTLY. If the Neocons had applied their ingenious brains* towards military preparedness, we wouldn’t be in this mess.
*I admit they’re smart. A relative handful, maybe 6 of them at the State Department, led by Nuland, managed to violently overthrow the elected government of a country of 45 million people. But, as usual, they had done NO PREPARATION regarding what would come next.
I see moral equivalence between France, Great Britain and Iran.
Well, one thing is for sure. Courtesy of Obama here, the idiots in France and Merkel's "wir schaffen es," France and Great Britain -- and sadly us -- are growing our Muslim populations via "migration."
And -- as posted to another thread -- "The Hijrah or Hijra ( Arabic: الهجرة) was the journey the Islamic prophet Muhammad and his followers took from Mecca to Medina."
Moral equivalence comes in a number of forms, some of them demographic in nature.
