UKRAINE WAR - A DE-FACTO STATE OF WAR EXISTS BETWEEN THE U.S., U.K., NATO, & RUSSIA
Due to the fact that U.S. and NATO countries are very heavily supporting and suppling Ukrainian military forces, it would be foolish not to acknowledge that the U.S. & NATO countries are in a 'de-facto' state-of-war with Russia. This is often called a "Cold War."
Without Electricity... Can You Live Like It's 1880!?
THE MOST SERIOUS THREAT WE FACE IS...
The Power Grid being hacked/disabled if at war.
“If the grid went down for a long enough time…
90 percent of the U.S. population would die from starvation, lack of water, and social disruption. We are talking about total devastation.”
-- Ambassador Henry Cooper, Former Director of U.S. Strategic Defense
NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) a Defense Alliance, Member Countries of NATO
ON A KNIFE'S EDGE (meaning)
Tensions are so very high between the U.S., NATO, and Russian military, any close proximity of our militaries could easily break out into shooting, which could also lead to a direct hot war.
In the Black Sea, the Russian military has already been caught significantly threatening U.S. military sea and air operations in international sea and air space - including the downing a U.S. drone. Russian missiles have also struck several NATO countries that border Ukraine.
