Lawmakers told Russia likely behind ‘directed-energy’ attacks on US troops
NY Post ^ | 4-22-21 | Emily Jacobs

The Pentagon has briefed top lawmakers on suspected “directed-energy” attacks against US troops, potentially by Russia, according to a report.

At least two groups of lawmakers with the necessary security clearances have been briefed by Defense Department officials this year on the incidents being probed, Politico reported Wednesday.

The briefings were given to lawmakers both in writing and in person.

The congressional officials who told the outlet they had been briefed said they were informed about the suspected attacks as part of their Pentagon oversight duties.

At the time, two people familiar with the probe said, several troops began experiencing “flu-like symptoms.”

B-52s would have to do cruise missile launch - if the ALCMs are still allowed. Don’t remember. I heard the B-1’s were not supposed to carry ALCMs way, way back.

The B-2s would do cleanup. IMHO

It’s all up to the Ohios - SSGNs and SSBNs and the few MMIII’s we have for any opening scenario (also IMHO).

I’m getting the sense that someone in Washington DC doesn’t like Russia

Yup..the Boomers are the most effective we have.

IMO,,I asked a friend of my wife, who is from Taiwan, about what the Reds might do if we got into a war. She said they do not want to contaminate the farm land in this country. They would invade-they have some patience. She said once they have our technology, they would move when ready. That was back in the late 90s. Havent talked to her since we moved away in the early 2000s.

IMO, we may have to use our nuclear weapons...the result wont be good.
I dont worry about the Russians like the Chicoms.

If Trump were president, I wouldnt worry about any of them. Which gives me suspicion that they had their slimy hands in our election to get Trump to hell out of there. I dont think the globalists have given it much deep thought on how well they would do with Red China and the Russians. China is playing them, Russia hates them.

Soros had better watch his sorry ass.

The pentagon is basically accusing Russia of using a bio weapon this is technically grounds for Biden declaring an act of war on Russia a country with 5000 nuclear warheads...let’s see what Sleepy Joe does

I miss the days when you didn’t have to completely discount everything the Pentagon and White House says.

Because they are incredible, it’s becoming a national security issue.

Because nobody anywhere believes one damn word they say.

“All we have is a few B1 Bombers and the Boomers under the water in the ocean.”

And 450 Minuteman IIIs.

STILL the most accurate and reliable ICBM in the world.

And the B-1 does not carry nukes.

Hypothetically, if 2024 were a Biden VS Putin race, I’d have to vote against the Communist.

One of my frat bros is retired from Martin Marietta, worked on ICBM guidance.

He used to say “we can hit any manhole cover in red square, just point it out on the photograph”.

“Every time I buy a product made in China a feel like a traitor. Thanks for making feel that way globalist Free Traitors™.”

You shouldn’t and I’m an American manufacturer.

Are those products actually made in China?

Or can Companies brand or label any product they purchase anyway they want?

I only look at labeling if the product is inferior. That way a repeat purchase doesn’t happen.

Made in USA
Made in China
Made in Germany
Made in Japan on a product doesn’t prove anything.

I trust international business arrangements like I trust the American media. Which means I trust neither of these lying monopolistic enterprises ever.

Maybe forensic scientific geniuses can tell us where everything is actually made.(sarcasm)

“Russia, Russia, Russia.

Our State Department is setting up a future conflict with Russia,China, and Persia. They’re on a diplomatic suicide mission.

Basically our foreign policy position has “flip flopped” from the 1939-1945 period, when our enemies were Germany, Japan, and Italy.

Amen to that gator, AMEN to that. I don’t trust any critter up in Sodom on the Potomac. “No, not one . . . “ as the Holy Scriptures say.
