By Hal Turner: 2:11 PM EST -- About one hour ago, U.S. President 'Demented' Joe Biden GRANTED permission for Ukraine to use U.S. long-range weapons to attack deep interior Russia.
Developing very fast, check back for updates below.
UPDATE 2:15 PM EST --
There are differing reports coming in regarding this issue. Some of the reports say "long-range missiles" while other reports say "long-range ATACMS"
WHAT ARE "ATACMS?"
The MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) is a supersonic tactical ballistic missile designed and manufactured by the US defense company Ling-Temco-Vought (LTV), and later Lockheed Martin through acquisitions.
It uses solid propellant and is 13 feet (4.0 m) long and 24 inches (610 mm) in diameter, and the longest-range variants can fly up to 190 miles (300 km).
The missiles can be fired from the tracked M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) and the wheeled M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS).
An ATACMS launch container (pod) has one rocket but a lid patterned with six circles like a standard MLRS rocket lid to prevent an enemy from discerning what type of missile is loaded.
EFFECT ON RUSSIA
The immediate effect upon Russian military forces engaged in the Ukraine conflict is severe. Russia has much of its Ukraine supply lines and spare forces WITHIN RANGE of the longest-range ATACMS.
The ma below, created by the Institute for the Study of War, shows how much of western Russia can now be attacked by Ukriane, using ATACMS:
UPDATE 2:35 PM EST --
The the New York Times is now reporting this story, saying "the Biden Administration has for the first time authorized the Ukrainian Military to use U.S-Supplied Long-Range Missiles, including ATACMS, against Russian Territory."
So it is not simply ATACMS, it is also Long-range missiles.
It was just last week that the Russian FOreign Ministry took the unusual step of reminding the collective West that allowing Ukraine to use west-supplied, long-range missiles to attack deep interior Russia would make the collective west "parties to the conflict" because those long-range missiles require satellites to guide them to target. THe Foreign Ministry reminded everyone that Ukraine does not HAVE any satellites.
So in order for those missiles to hit targets in Russia, the missiles need active satellite guidance from US/EU/NATO satellites, and that active guidance makes the West "combatants" against Russia.
The Foreign Ministry then said "there mere granting of permission for the use of such missiles will result in an imminent and devastating response against the West."
As of about 1:00 PM eastern US time today, Sunday, 17 November 2024, that permission has now been given.
Welcome to World War 3.
UPDATE 3:04 PM EST --
Multiple confirmations that Ukrainian forces are preparing for their initial long-range operations against Russia.
(PUBLIC UPDATES CONTINUE BENEATH THE GREEN SHADED AREA BELOW)
UPDATE 4:35 PM EST --
France and Great Britain have now ALSO allowed Ukraine to fire UK and France-supplied SCALP/Storm Shadow missiles deep into Russia.
By these permissions, first from the US, then from UK and France, the collective West has taken the decision to become active parties to the conflict and as such, Russia can now respond militarily to those countries.
We should expect to get bombed here inside the US, from Russia. For months, Russian submarines have been off the Atlantic coast, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Pacific Coast. They are also up around Alaska. Submarine-launched missiles would have very brief flight time before impacting US targets.
Moreover, we in the US do NOT have "Over-the-Horizon" radar protecting us from missiles launched from the south. Such missiles could cross over our coastline and impact deep in Middle America and we wouldn't know a thing about it until they impacted and detonated.
This decision is the direct responsibility of President Joseph Biden. He is starting world war 3 because his Party lost the election. If they cannot keep power, they clearly intend to burn the world down.
As our cities get bombed by Russian missiles, as our friends and family members get killed, as our way of life gets irrevocably smashed, REMEMBER who caused this when you see the politicians slithering out of their Bunkers, trying to blame everyone but themselves for what has taken place.
THEY are responsible. THEY are guilty.
UPDATE 5:05 PM EST --
As of 2:59 PM eastern US time today, British Prime Minister Kier Starmer is on a PRIVATE JET heading to Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
What does THAT tell you? It indicates to me that he KNOWS what's coming, he's getting his ass far away from the wreckage he thinks is coming. ALL CAUSED BY HIM AND HIS POLITICAL PALS IN THE US AND NATO.
He's apparently isn't the only one who knows. At 1:04 AM this morning, I published a story highlighting the strange number of aircraft departing the United States in the wee hours of this morning.
I pointed out there were several HUNDRED aircraft flying out into the Atlantic at 1:04 AM. (Story Here), and that it was very odd to see such a massive number of planes leaving the US on a Saturday night-into Sunday morning.
Given today's developments, it appears to me the rich muckity-mucks all seem to have gotten "the word" to high-tail it out of the country last night.
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S SON KNOWS . . . .
but Musk banned his tweet!
UPDATE 5:24 PM EST --
North Korean leader ORDERS military to 'raise readiness for possible war.'
UPDATE 5:31 PM EST --
RUSSIAN LAWMAKERS WARN OF WWIII
Washington’s approval for Ukraine to strike Russia with U.S. long-range missiles triggered warnings from Russian lawmakers.
A senior member of the Federation Council, Andrei Klishas: “The West has decided on such a level of escalation that it could end with the Ukrainian statehood in complete ruins by morning.”
First deputy head of the Russian upper house’s international affairs committee, Vladimir Dzhabarov: “This is a very big step towards the start of World War Three.”
Chairman of the State Duma lower house’s foreign affairs committee, Leonid Slutsky: “Strikes with U.S. missiles deep into Russian regions will inevitably entail a serious escalation, which threatens to lead to much more serious consequences.”
