Biden threatens a ‘consequential’ response if Russia turns to unconventional weapons.
NY Times ^ | September 17, 2022

President Biden has once again warned President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia against using unconventional or nuclear weapons to try to turn the tide of the war in Moscow’s favor, saying that such an action would “change the face of war unlike anything since World War II.”

Speaking in an interview with the CBS News program “60 Minutes” that is scheduled to air on Sunday, Mr. Biden said that the United States’ response would be “consequential,” though he declined to go into detail.

“You think I would tell you if I knew exactly what it would be? Of course I’m not going to tell you. It’ll be consequential,” Mr. Biden said

Biden was plagued by the media hyping Russian tactical nukes. His appearance on CBS is just an attempt to justify the media theme of the week

NATO has massively escalated this war by introducing unlimited quantities of America’s highest tech conventional weapons. When the Russians do begin to escalate they will still use conventional missiles but they will escalate the war into the weapons staging areas in Poland with a promise to do likewise again if NATO continues its escalation. There are a couple more rungs on the escalatory ladder short of theater nukes but NATO is forcing the conflict there.

I remember when the blowhard Xiden was in the obama regime and stated that he/they would chase ISIS to the gates of hell when they refused to cross the Syrian border. This guy is nothing but bullshit and Russia, China (his owner), and everyone else knows this.

I was wondering if your response would be to my post, and it wasn’t, it had nothing to do with my answer to your post #2.

Absolutely nothing to do with my actual post.

the next GOP nominee needs to campaign on leaving NATO

NATO has been nothing but a massive burden since the Berlin Wall fell and all they do is cost insane amounts of money and shift the risks of war to US citizens.

Trump discussed it but was ultimately dissuaded by deep state, military industrial complex, NEOCON tools...

Biden appears in media when he needs the media to do his bidding. The media is the long arm of the RAT party. They work with each other and you can notice they often use the exact identical words in their talking points.

The media never “plagues” a democrat unless he does a Manchin and the RATs tell the media to launch an attack.

the one time NATO actually had a defense obligation to fulfill to a member

it took the commie-Kurds’ side against Turkey

the entire thing is one big defense contractor looting operation and has no connection whatsoever with defending anything

at some point people will figure out that Trump was never anything other that just another Deep State actor

I hope the damage done by the illusion is not unrecoverable by that time

Interesting that you brought up Turkey, who has the largest standing NATO military in Europe (Ukraine being 2nd and a NATO lite).

The BidenIdiot Regime is contemplating or looking to impose sanctions on Turkey’s banking system. Yeah, that going to fly well with Erdogan and his country’s raging inflation problem. Those sanctions could theoretically madden Erdogan enough to pull Turkey out of NATO. More BidenIdiot Regime idiocy.

The media was smearing Trump, Trump was strengthening NATO.

Obama was weakening NATO.

Personally don’t care.

Get the UN out of the US.

The US needs to get out of NATO - it’s antiquated having served its purpose.

Immediately cease all US indirect and direct involvement in Ukraine and elsewhere.

Immediately cease sending US taxpayer money to Ukraine. Period.

Immediately cease sending military equipment to Ukraine. Period.

And work on our problems here at home. Period.

Exactly. NATO, with US’s willing complicity had strung Ukraine along for YEARS about even being a NATO aspirant, let alone a full member.

He can bluster and bloviate all his demented old self wants but he won’t have the legitimacy of a NATO treaty to back him up. It is crazy rhetoric like this that eggs on a nuclear exchange.

Then it is a NATO-lite without benefit of treaty in any way whatsoever.
