British Army chief warns '5 years' to prepare for WW3 with world facing 'new Axis power'

The outgoing head of the British Army General Sir Patrick Sanders has warned that NATO may only have five years to prepare for war.

General Sir Patrick warned that the world was facing one of its most dangerous moments since 1945 when the world was last at war and that the alliance may have until the end of this decade to be ready.

Sir Patrick also highlighted that despite performing well in some areas, the UK’s armed forces were also underfunded and overstretched.

His warnings come at a time of rising global tensions over Russia’s war in Ukraine, China’s warnings of Taiwan, and the continuing conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Middle East.

The new Lefty commies in Britain and France are going to say NO to that, especially in a coalition with the far Right.

I appreciate your perspective. But you keep grinding on with the personal insults. Not only are those personal insults not helpful, they are against the express wishes of FR’s boss, JimRob.

They don’t have 5 years to prepare for war, they need to prepare NOW!

I think they’ll strike while Brandon or Kam La La is still POTUS. China’s got the capacity and the man-power. North Korea has the starving people yearning to be cannon fodder if it means eating regularly. Iran has the fanaticism. Russia’s been badly battered, but they and Iran both have the oil. So why not hit now while America’s on its back.

A lot of the UK’s trade passes through the SCS so it does affect the UK.

That is a very significant graphic - pretty amazing what has changed in just 40 years. However, I would think that showing it as GDP per capita would be important too.

In looking at the countries that are in white it brings to mind China’s huge efforts in developing industries, mining, relationships in Africa. A lot of potential there for them.

“...talking about shutting down the use of fossil fuels over the next 10 years.”

Ever considered they’re gaming the markets? Didn’t their retarded girl spokesmoron give you a clue? They laugh at ppl who believe them.

Imagine putting profit over public image and reputation. It’s what whores do. Same-same for the mic grabbers. The fact the media is pimping AGW and anti-oil is all I needed to know at Biden’s inauguration to switch my entire portfolio to Oil.

I’m up over 100% in 3 years.

Well, maybe. I hope President Trump can bring some adult thought to foreign relations.

I don’t think they will wait for Trump to get elected.

Smart move to have planted them when you planted them.
Shallow-rooted and fast-growing, just watch any ‘leaning’ toward the house.

The UK should surrender to Russia now and save a lot of lives.

They have nothing left to save.

Seems obvious the western ruling cabal wants WW3. War is truly a racket, and I feel like a sucker for having played along for so many years.

“I feel like a sucker for having played along for so many years.”

The reason they do massive 24/7 propaganda is because it works.

Congrats on breaking free from it—it is a wonderful feeling.

Once you know everything they say is a lie you can start fresh and discover what has been really going on....

I wouldn’t put it past the Dems to start a war to stay in power.
