WORLD WAR III WATCH: NATO Drawing Up Plans to Deploy American Soldiers to the Front Line to Potentially Fight Russia in An All-Out War
Gateway Pundit ^ | Jun. 4, 2024 | By Cullen Linebarger

he globalists in charge are interested in potentially expanding the already devastating Ukraine-Russia war beyond the borders of the respective two nations.

The Daily Mail reported Tuesday that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is preparing plans to deploy American forces to the frontlines on the European continent to potentially fight a war with Russia.

Such a dangerous move has the potential to put our men and women in direct harm’s way against a nation with the most nuclear weapons on Earth.

From the Daily Mail Mail:

NATO is drawing up plans to send American troops to the frontlines of Europe in the event of an all-out conflict with Russia, it has been revealed

New ‘land corridors’ are being carved out to quickly funnel soldiers through central Europe without local bureaucratic impediments, allowing NATO forces to pounce in an instant should Putin’s devastating war in Ukraine move further west.

The plans are said to include contingencies in case of Russian bombardment, letting troops sweep into the Balkans via corridors in Italy, Greece and Turkey, or towards Russia’s northern border via Scandinavia.

The plans under development show that American soldiers would land at one of five ports across the European continent. Four would allow access to Ukraine’s western border, while a fifth would reach Russia’s border via Finland.

Reports from last year have indicated that the alliance could provide “300,000 troops at high readiness” in the event of a war with Russia. Since the United States bears up to 70% of the total defense spending of all the countries in the NATO alliance, one can be sure they will provide a majority of these forces.

The ultimate goal of this developing scheme is to ensure that NATO forces can push through Europe without any unnecessary delays caused by local bureaucratic red tape and checkpoints, according to the Mail.

It is a safe bet French President Emmanuel Macron is on board with these plans. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Macron refused to rule out sending European troops to fight Russian soldiers in Ukraine, a move Russian President Vladimir Putin’s foreign intelligence chief called “extremely dangerous and irresponsible.”

I have a vast library on WWII. And a few dozen volumes on WWI.

Currently reading “Forgotten Victory”, Gary Sheffield. Get it on Amazon Kindle.

I used to be one of those who made those crossings while preparing for war against Russia, it would have been even harder before most of the Russian empire became part of our side.

An experienced military analyst has stated that one of the reasons that Russia hasn't attempted a major offensive against Ukraine is the fear that massing troops in one place could be devastating if Ukraine launched a swarm of drones at them.

I guess NATO has figured this out and realizes they don't want to suffer such a fate if they take too long to mass troops that can be attacked by Russian drones and missiles.

But then this means that it will be relatively cheap and easy for Russia to prep for even five entry points which can all be simultaneously attacked with swarms of drones and missiles.

The only other option is for the US to attempt to repeat in Russia what they did in Iraq: bomb the hell out of multiple power, telecommunication, and radar installations throughout Russia in an attempt to blind Russia to the assaults.

Russia will respond with nukes and that's all she wrote.

What about the new weapons factories being built and the ones being refurbished?

There is a vast international merchant marine that can be appropriated for transatlantic cargo. The ships are there, they just aren’t flying the American flag. They can be chartered and crewed, as they have been in large numbers in 1991 and 2003.

In WW2 most of the merchant ships used weren’t flying the American flag either. They were ostensibly British, Norwegian, Dutch, Panamanian(even then), Greek, etc. The vast majority of their crews weren’t American, even if they were Liberty ships. Who thinks of the Indian/Ceylon Lascars these days? But they crewed the Atlantic convoys in vast numbers.

There is this American tendency to myopia on these matters. WW2 was a huge international effort, involving the whole global economy on the Allied side.

Those crossings in 1991 and 2003 were unopposed.

This will be different.

Since you were posting they were all closed and sounding as authoritative as when you told me I wouldn’t know anything about having to cross the Atlantic as part of American forces facing the Russian threat, it sounded like this was stuff that you kept up on.

The Russian Navy is in no condition to close the Atlantic, or even seriously attempt it.

I count about 12 active SSN’s in the Russian Northern Fleet. How many of those are fit to sortie, who knows.

Against this is the US and all of NATOs ASW assets.

So if Russia is as evil as you portray, beware using American munitions against them. Remember, they have nukes, lots of nukes.

The more it looks like Uk3!n is going to lose, Trump is going to win and B!@en is booted out the more likely those warmongers in the District of Corruption will get us involved in WW III as democrat have no intentions of giving up their recent gains, as they know quite well should Trump make it this time there will be a ferocious house cleaning. Better get ready for some accelerated home brew global warming, Rv$$i@ may not come out on top, but neither will the US.

WW3 with Russia will include a civil war 2 within this country.

Nuclear war with Russia and 'Schlicter's Scenario' within the borders of our country on the horizon.

Why worry? The USN knows the location of every Russian sub. They will all be sunk 30 minutes after was is pronounced by President Biden. All our soldiers will be flown in by Air. Only the tanks and cannons will go by ship and they will be put on container ships with foreign flags. Land in France and taken by trains to the front. What could go wrong? One or two victories using our f-35s and F-18 to rule the skys and Russia will fold up like a house of cards for the march on Moscow with brave Germans, Poles and Brits—all headed by the French. At the gates of Moscow Putin will be deposed by Victory! The will come the occupation of Russia and reparations for starting the war, hanging of Russian war criminals, and imposed democratic rule. It will be a wonderful victory and only cost a few thousand American lives. China will do nothing out of fear of our vast power. Victory for NATO-USA and Zelenskyy.

This is just a hint and it is taking place among our European and Pacific allies as well, some military budgets like Poland and Japan are off the charts.

> The factories are gone. <

Yep. I grew up relatively close to two huge steel mills. They made ship and tank armor for WW2. Both mills are gone now, torn down. On one site there’s a strip mall. On the other there’s an office complex. Plus lots of empty space.

No way could we ramp up production like we did in WW2.

Russia is a piece of cake. Our boys will will line up for miles to enlist just to get a chance to get them Ruzzians. They'll make it D-Day 2 with minimal resistance from the Ruzzians according to our new woke military intelligence!

.

Feeble Russian hyperbaric salvo don't scare our boys!

Other new, relevant facilities are coming online. And unlike in WW2 there are lots of places to outsource production, like South Korea and Japan, or even Vietnam (Hyundai shipyard).

Building ship hulls isnt the bottleneck anyway, but electronics and aerospace systems.

A new war won’t be won by building USS Massachussets copies with 18” of armor plate.

#1: You could get shot DEAD
#2: You could get blown up DEAD
#3: You could get run over by a tank DEAD
#4: You could get frozen in the Russian winter DEAD
#5: You could get burned alive to make you DEAD
#6: You could step on a land mine and it will make you DEAD
#7: You could catch some disease on the front line that will make you DEAD
#8 You could be gassed DEAD
#9: You could get gangrene from a wound and be DEAD
#10 You could try to escape and be shot by your own side DEAD

I am sure there are lots more things that could go wrong, these are just off the top of my head.
