UPDATED: May 20, 2018
In
one stunning speech to the Russian Federal Assembly on March 1st,
2018, Vladimir Putin revealed Russia’s new advanced weapons systems that, in a
nutshell, checkmates the entire US Military position and ends their threat of a
first strike policy. The US government, its Pentagon and Intelligence agencies
were indeed served notice that “The Russians are Back” and they are stronger
than ever. In
short, it was a very calm but firm “Say hello to my little friends!” moment.
Yes
indeed, the Russians are back bringing a balance of power and a little sanity
to a world that has been brutally bullied by a belligerent unipolar American super
power for far too long.
In
Vladimir Putin’s address, he unveiled new weapons with advanced technology such
as miniature nuclear powered engines that are not only a game changer, they are
a wake up call to an arrogant war mongering American
government.
Hopefully
Putin’s words were carefully listened to and not shrugged off by a bad case
of American hubris. Maybe, just maybe Putin’s words will let in a little light and allow
some of the saner voices and opinions to be heard inside the US Pentagon and Capital
Hill.
New
Weapons:
Vladimir
Putin confirmed that the “Sarmat ICBM” would replace the older but formidable
SS-18 “Satan” still considered one of the most powerful weapons in the world.
Then
he turned to new weapon systems such as:
-
A
nuclear powered cruise missile with unlimited range!
-
A
new missile with a Mach 20 capability named: Avangard
Russia’s
new hypersonic gliding warhead called ‘Avangard’ can reach the speed of Mach-20
and has high maneuvering capabilities that make it immune to all anti-missile
weapons existing today. The video showing the new weapon was computer-generated
to keep its actual appearance secret.

- A
silent high speed nuclear powered drone with intercontinental range, capable
of moving at great depths. The underwater drone has great endurance and stealth
capabilities, with a nuclear reactor smaller and more powerful than earlier
models. The drone can counter enemy aircraft carrier groups and attack
shoreline defenses.

- A
Mach 10 hypersonic missile (2,000 kilometer range) named: Kinzhal
The
missile is launched from an aircraft and reaches a speed of Mach-10 while
maneuvering to pierce through anti-aircraft systems. The weapon can be fit with
a conventional or nuclear warhead.

Aftermath
of this stunning announcement:
Even though the American’s do not have
anything close to this technology, we could say that there is once again in the world a balance of power. Russia clearly has the upper hand but at the
same time Russia offers the hand of peace and cooperation which the USA does not. Will the US
government accept Russia or anyone else as an equal partner, or will they keep shouting that the Russian's have started an arms race?
Russian
President Vladimir Putin has denied accusations he revived an arms race by
unveiling Russia’s new nuclear deterrent. In actual fact, the start of an arms race was done by US
President George W. Bush who killed the 30-year-old ABM missile treaty in 2002.
Russia merely responded to the constant NATO encroachment and blatant US military
threats to protect the Russian people from a proven war monger.

Overall,
the annual message to the Federal Assembly (and the world) was one of peace and
an invitation for antagonistic countries such as the USA to negotiate. The hand
of peace and friendship has always been offered by Vladimir Putin but never accepted by the US
Pentagon because they need a villain to justify their huge defence budget.
The
Western mainstream media only aired little snipits to make Vladimir Putin’s
speech sound menacing, ie: they endorse the US governments defence spending
position by helping to create the artificial threat which is why they never
broadcast Vladimir Putin’s entire speech. This proves, once again, that the western
media are not information news outlets but propaganda mouthpieces for the US
Pentagon, corporate interests and US secret services. In doing so, the US
mainstream media undermines US democracy by not keeping their citizens
truthfully informed.
On
March 2nd, Vladimir Putin was in the Kaliningrad region speaking to a forum of
journalists. Then on March 3rd, he was back in Moscow at Luzhniki stadium, with
thousands of voters gathered for an election campaign event. (Russians go to
the polls on March 18th.)

Will
Saner Voices Prevail?
Will
the saner voices of reason prevail within the US Government and Pentagon? Or
will rabid US military mad dogs continue to press forward with their aggressive
militaristic behavior towards Russia or any country for that matter that
desires to express its economic independence from the US dollar?
I
guess we are going to find out sooner rather than later. But one thing is for
sure, the US economic position is now in a quicksand of its own making; more-so
now as US President Donald Trump launches an economic trade war which
historically leads to real wars. The question is, will Vladimir Putin’s warning
be enough for the American’s to finally focus their attention on their own
domestic economy or will they continue their suicidal race for global economic domination?
Here
is Vladimir Putin’s full speech which is his annual presidential address to the
Federal Assembly in Moscow. Members of the government, both houses of the
Russian Parliament, other officials and public figures gathered at the
Kremlin’s St. George Hall for the event.
