AMERICA’S Defcon warning level has been reduced to its safest threat level possible following Donald Trump’s shock presidential election win.
The Defcon Warning System, a private organisation which monitors world events and estimates the nuclear threat against America, is now at Level 5 - its lowest possible state.
Just weeks ago the warning was accelerated to Level 3 following increased tensions between US and Russia, with insiders fearing the West was creeping closer to nuclear war.
Level 3 means US troops could be mobilised in as little as 15 minutes.
But the group, made up of experts claiming to have contacts within the US security industry, have seen Donald Trump’s election win as a pacifier for Russian relations.
The group wrote on its website: “The United States took a tentative step toward a more isolationist policy with its recent presidential election.
"While it will take several months to see how the US reforms its foreign policy, already some world leaders have expressed hope that relations could improve, including Russia and Syria.
“If the new US President keeps to his previous statements, look for the United States to withdraw somewhat from military confrontations in the Middle East and possibly European theatre, though it is highly unlikely it will abandon NATO commitments, and the Ukraine will likely pop up again in the near future.
"Russia, however, will probably wait to see what the new President does, as well as now being hampered by the coming winter.”
Donald Trump's election as president of America was welcomed by Vladimir Putin, leader of the US' biggest rival Russia.
He said he hoped the pair would be able to work well together towards a more friendly relationship between the two superstates.
The group did warn, however, about some remaining threats to US and world security.
It said: “China and North Korea … continue to either cast a wary eye or are outright belligerent. Israel … will become more of a focal point again.
“Meanwhile, more troops are to be sent to Europe in 2017 to bolster defences against Russian movements and NATO continues building up forces in Poland and surrounding areas to protect against a potential Russian assault.”
While the US government also uses the Defcon system, it is private and not available to the public, so public records are estimates.
Level 5 means the US Department of Defence should be at its lowest state of readiness for nuclear war.
Thank you for not sticking this on your blog and claiming credit for it.
Interesting. I would have expected the opposite to happen, if anything. The MSM would blame a rise in the Defcon on Trump, when the reality is Obama is still POTUS and an even greater threat to disrupt the world now that Trump has won.
From The People’s Cube:
The hotel for the party had a VIP room:
Saudi Arabia had donated a 150-inch, flat-screen HD TV:
Hillary picked up a $950,000 bottle of champagne and threw it at the TV, destroying it.
The ornate cake was topped with a minature relica of the White House and featured a detailed,, colored frosting decoration of the US Prez Seal —not something Hillary wanted to see just then.
She tipped the cake over and hurled the unwelcome WH replica, which embedded in the drywalling opposite the dessert table.
Almost all the silverware was thrown about and most of the tables were upended or inverted. Most of the food was hurled around the room.
I really hope that Obama spends the last 60 days or so of his term getting to the bottom of the apparently successful Russian plot to destroy the Hillary candidacy, the Obama Legacy and the Future of the Democratic Party.
This is serious stuff. Surely Obama will want this resolved before he hands over the keys to the White House to Trump.
OTOH, he could simply confess that the Dems just made that story up and that he now just wants to get on with is life giving occasional $250,000 speeches and avoiding Michelle as best he can.
NOTE NOTE NOTE:
The Peoples Cube is apparently a PARODY news site.
The Onion I do know, but I didn’t know The People’s Cube is another one of those.
SORRY..!!!
Some of the detail was irresistable, sorry..!!!
:(
Destroying the TV Or the buby?
What? His “hateful rhetoric” toward Iran doesn’t make the world infinitely more dangerous for everybody? Has the MSM been mistaken all those times they told me that gays and blacks and women should all fear for their lives now?
Total BS. It takes longer than that to issue weapons. Ammunition takes much longer. If they mean the order could be issued to unit Commanders in 15 minutes, that's possible if they are previously prepared.
Where’s Trump’s Nobel PEACE PRIZE
WAPO “ Trump lures American military defense into false sense of security”
I am sure you will want to join in the general celebration.
I saved you a seat right next to mine.
The People’s Cube is good, Very Good. The founder is a former propaganda official of the Soviet Union. He says he sees the same things in the American Left that he saw in the Soviet Union. He knows his stuff. Very credible source -even if satire. He knows the nature of the beast.
Hillary must be p****d.
$950,000 bottle of champagne??
Was it made with liquid gold or wjhat.
Peace and Safety...
Aaaaaaahahahahahahahaha!
Where is ol’ Hill these days? Haven’t heard a peep.
Yep, that's why Trump is promising to make our military stronger than it has ever been.
Dream on Libtards...
Trump doesn't sabre rattle like an impudent child. Can't say that for Obama and Hillary Clinton.
What is the demographis makeup of the Ukraine? I thought it was mostly Russians?
To be liquid the gold must be 1,948°F. A little too hot to drink.
