US Sends Over 100 US Tanks, Armor To Latvia As Nuland "Confirms" Russia Delivering Weapons

Tyler Durden's picture




 

No lesser trustworthy character than Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland explained this morning that the US can "confirm" new Russian weapons delivery to Ukraine and that they "can tell" when Russia sends in new weapons (though offering no explanation of this statement). This comment to the Senate Committee comes a day after the US delivered 'lethal aid' to Latvia - 120 armored units (including tanks) - with US Army General John O’Conner who witnessed the tanks arriving on Latvian soil said, "Freedom must be fought for, freedom must be defended." And finally, one more shot in the eye of the germans, deputy under-secretary of Defense Brian McKeon said the US is "actively considering more weapons for Ukraine," seemingly implying they alreadt sent some?

The rhetoric is heating up

  • *ASSISTANT SEC. OF STATE NULAND SPEAKS BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE
  • *U.S. CAN CONFIRM NEW RUSSIAN WEAPONS DELIVERY TO UKRAINE:NULAND
  • *NULAND SAYS U.S. CAN TELL IF RUSSIA SENDS IN NEW WEAPONS
  • *NULAND SAYS UKRAINE LEADERS KNOW IN RACE TO REFORM GOVERNMENT
  • *DEPUTY UNDER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE BRIAN MCKEON SPEAKS TO SENATE
  • *U.S. 'ACTIVELY' CONSIDERING MORE WEAPONS FOR UKRAINE: MCKEON

And this comes a day after the US delivered lethal aid to Latvia...

As RT reports,

Latvia has confirmed more than 120 armored units, including tanks, have been delivered by the US. According to the Latvian Ministry of Defense, these include M1A2 Abrams tanks and M2A3 Bradley armored vehicles.

 

The move to deploy yet more tanks and armored vehicles was welcomed by Latvian Minister of Defense Raymond Vejonis."The presence of our allies (US and NATO) in Latvia is a confirmation of solidarity and security in the region," Vejonis said in a statement on Twitter.

 

The tanks were delivered to Latvia via Riga Freeport after being offloaded from the carrier ship Liberty Promise on Monday. US Army General John O’Conner who witnessed the tanks arriving on Latvian soil said, “Freedom must be fought for, freedom must be defended," as reported by the US Embassy Riga Twitter feed.

 

...

 

He also added their delivery would "demonstrate resolve to President Putin and Russia that collectively we can come together," while General O’Connor also mentioned, they would stay "for as long as required to deter Russian aggression,” as reported by AFP.

Leaving the situation ever more dangerous...

But Nuland wasn't done yet. As Sputnik news reports,

The United States government is applying pressure to European countries that oppose sanctions against Russia, US Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs Victoria Nuland said at a US Senate hearing on Tuesday.

 

“We continue to talk to them bilaterally about these issues,” Nuland said of Hungary, Greece, and Cyprus, whose leaders have opposed anti-Russian sanctions. “I will make another trip out to some of those countries in the coming days and weeks.”

 

Nuland noted that “despite some publically stated concerns, those countries have supported sanctions” in the European Union Council.

Reports are flooding in that Victoria Nuland has been busy planning another coup... this time in Georgia. (No not that Georgia...)

Tie-eating Saakashvili to be re-instated as the new Victorian Empire marches towards an all-out war with Russia

"Former Georgian president Mikheil Saakashvili has been saying for six months that he will be back in six months! No elections are due to be held and he can’t run for president again. Now, unfortunately, we might know what he meant."

The past ten years or so has made me question everything I was "taught" about the past hundred years. As a kid, it was pretty much hammered into my head — via parents, school, media, and popular culture — that America was a good country. A nation, not an empire.

It's become clear that much of what I was taught was a complete fabrication, and part of me wishes I'd come to that conclusion in my 80s instead of my 30s. Every day brings some new bit of information that turns everything we learned as children on its head. What a mind-fuck.

There is a preconception that this speech of Kennedy's is about secret societies (and by extension, Jews), but that is misleading. There is only a phrase in passing that mentions secret societies while admitting that secrecy is inimical to democratic values, whereas the whole thrust of the speech is to declare it necessary in his present case -- that of the Cold War, which he expressly mentions.

Various descriptions of the speech on YouTube claim that this was a speech for which Kennedy was killed. That is nonsense. There is a solid case for Jewish involvement in Kennedy's assassination, along with the whole CIA. This speech had nothing to do with it.

Medicine can be frozen to increase shelf life, ammo can be sealed for corrosion resistance, same with food, etc. along with multi route plans in the event the shit goes south and you need to get out of town. In fact the biggest error most survival sites or people advocate is to hole up in your house or bunker... nothing could be further from the truth - mobility = survival... and your right about the bankers.

I agree--this country started off as good until the warmongers wormed into power. The 20th century will be remembered as a tyrannical free-for-all. Ever since the 1898 false flag attack in Havana Harbor that started the Spanish American War and seizure of the Philippines to aid in the Japanese military buildup to WW1, we have been in a downward spiral with the most violently insane white collar criminals steering our country into one war after another with their disgusting lies.

At least we have the benefit of uncovering and exposing the rot. The generations before us had no idea what hateful misfits infested every corner of governance, and went to their deaths never suspecting the truth.

If you look at most Americans, though, you'll notice they're still acting like the mask is there. They know what Uncle Sam's true face looks like, but it's more comforting to pretend they never saw it.

I think it goes further back than 1898. The US war against Mexico was almost certainly sparked by false flag machinations. The desired outcome of course was the acquisition of territory, by illegal means and force if necessary.

Here is what I don't get -- all of you who on every other day complain that Obozo is weak, has no dick, has no balls, and is a weak dickless fag, are getting what you want, right?  Men with dicks send weapons and start wars.  That is plank 1 of the Republican Party platform, and seems to get general approval around ZH.  Every Republican contender for the white house except Rand Paul is promising more war.  So aren't you glad you don't have to wait until January 20, 2017?

Last year, the nearly unanimous opinion at ZH was that Vladimir Putin (he whose dick practically drags on the sidewalk) was playing chess in Ukraine while the dickless fag in the whitehouse was playing checkers.  Banzai even did an image of Putin as king with naked Obozo sitting on a checker.  In other words, Obozo was not being sufficiently confrontational with Russia over Ukraine.  OK, y'all got what you wanted.  Obozo is now being more confrontational with Russia, even to the point of risking a pointless war.  Hooray, right?  Why is everyone complaining?  If Obozo were more of a man, the war would start tomorrow.

JLee is right, the country has changed.  When I was young, the general public had much better instincts, was much more humane, much more Christian.  Moral and philosophical bearings of the country have vanished.  Hate is now an end in itself, including among those self-styled seers of the truth.  Just one example, it's no longer possible to argue for restraint, or peace, or walking away from useless fights without being accused of having no dick.  You don't need to look elsewhere to see it.  You can see it right here at ZH.

In a perfect world..to control opposition,  NOTHING could be greater than 'alternative media' websites. .born on internet..to give (what cld appear to be whacky) theories of alternative'truth'. Theres so many theories about everything now ..that it almost makes the official 911 story appear true. (Okay..not that bad...but you get my point.)

Its at a point where its too cluttered. .tooo much info..too much truth..too many lies. And where the the bad guys get the upper hand is..the truth is stranger than fiction.  So the majority will NEVER FIND IT. NEVER.  NEVER. 

 

good luck my friend. We cant fight it anymore. Its their game. Rigged from the start. For them to win. If it was 1785,..or 1850...or even 1911..maybe we coulda fixed it. But not today.  Ya really gotta smile and give a nod to them. Cause it was VERY well played/executed. Im sure the backroom meetings they point and laugh bout how its all out in the open..and were too stupid to notice. But some are not. Sadly..we 'some' are not enough.

Agreed, but....

When Nuland states they "can tell" when Russia sends in new weapons, she is spot on.

The U.S. has wide variety of space-based observation capabilities that would blow most away.

The resolution of the systems is impressive. If not in geostationary orbit, there is something

sweeping over the region several times per hour watching what is going on.

 

Next time a rocket is launched from Vandenburg or Cape Canaveral with a payload owned by

the National Reconnaissance Office, you have a good idea what is on-board.

But do they have the space-based capacity to destroy every Russian ICBM that is launched against Europe and all NATO countries to pre-empt our own pre-emptive nuclear attack?

Seeking that capacity is one of the main reasons for the grab for Ukraine.  Look where the Russian ICBM's are located (primarily in the east).  Positioning anti-ballistic missile systems (oops, I mean missile defense systems) in Ukraine puts those ICBM's within range, allowing for interception in the boost-phase, which is the sine qua non of an effective ABM system (oops, I mean missile defense system).  Try that shit during the ballistic or reentry phases and you'll likely be intercepting decoys.

No they do not,  and they certainly do not if the attack is from Russia/China.

Not only that most of our nukes are in Silos which can be destroyed more easily because their locations are known.  Most of Russia/China's nukes are mobile.

Maybe, but here's the kicker: bankrupt countries have a hard time waging wars, much less winning them. This all makes for a nice dog & pony show (all that's missing is Katy Perry riding on a tank gun barrel), but at the end of the day we are still bankrupt.

The two best ways to inflate an economy—keep living beyond ones mean—is either by financial innovation (fraud/Hidden Money Creation) or rearming (taking by force).

 

So, once the financial innovation stop working, are we supposed to be surprise by what comes next?

 

And, that the average brainwashed sheeple will be able to figure it out before it is too late?

 

Prepare for war. Wonder why?

 

Our monetary system is about to collapse, leading the whole world into a Great Depression.

 

And this time there is no way to recover because the easy commodities have been extracted leaving the hardest commodities that will need to be extract facing even more so diminishing returns.

BND German intelligence has aleady referred to US NATO Gen. Breedlove as BONKERS .. German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier was so alarmed, reports the article, that he found it necessary recently to bring up Breedlove’s comments with the US General’s boss, NATO General Secretary Jens Stoltenberg   Der Spiegel ... F]or months now, many in the Chancellery simply shake their heads each time NATO, under Breedlove’s leadership, goes public with striking announcements about Russian troop or tank movements. … False claims and exaggerated accounts, warned a top German official during a recent meeting on Ukraine, have put NATO — and by extension, the entire West — in danger of losing its credibility.

Correct McMolotov! The coming war against Russia will happen in Europe, the airstrikes can reach all the way to Paris and London with no problem. Europe is ground zero for this war, the USA will sit safe and secure, shipping in arms and troops, while Europe is laid waste. Now, can we see why Europe seeks a peaceful end to a crisis in Ukraine, while the USA is throwing gas on the fire as fast as it can. It is simple Europe is destroyed, while the USA stands untouched and much of it's economic competition is leveled.

We can only hope Europes people, who will die in this war, wake up and trash their governments for following USA orders.

Not all of them. Remember the 'crappy' old Saxon APCs the Brits sold to Ukraine as non lethal aid?

Well they have turned out to be lethal, but to their operators. You really couldn't make this up. This quote is about a 20 Saxon delivery to unit convoy today.

Apparently not all the UK-provided Saxons were sold off--some of them were actually issued to the UAF, specifically the 79th Airmobile Brigade which previously operated BMD-series air-droppable infantry fighting vehicles, many of which were destroyed or captured already during the summer 2015 campaign by the Novorossia militia. So they were issued Saxons instead, vehicles with a rather high center of gravity which makes them far more sensitive to sudden turning movements than, say, Russian BTR-series wheeled APCs. Still, at the rate things are going, one wonders if any of these vehicles will be in service long enough for Novorossia to capture them! The accident, which took place on the Kiev-Kharkov highway, involved two Saxons and left one Ukrainian soldier dead and one wounded. If this is how elite UAF formations handle their equipment, what can be said about the hastily recalled reservists with hardly any refresher training?
