Global Research Wants to Hear From You!
***
There is now in the US a vast industry funded with $1.3 trillion developing “usable” nuclear weapons. All sorts of private contractors, scientific laboratories, the Pentagon are involved. In other words, the vast sum is widely spread resulting in a massive influential institutionalized interest that prevents nuclear disarmament.
Professor Chossudovsky points out that the politicians funding this doomsday exercise have no conception of the consequences of using nuclear weapons (some of which have been declared “peace weapons”) and that there is neglect of the risks introduced by artificial intelligence.
It is frightening that 80 years ago when the US had a monopoly on nuclear weapons, the US developed a war plan to commit genocide on the Soviet population using 200 nuclear bombs on 66 cities.
This, the senseless and immoral destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and present day reckless provocations, such as attacks on Russia’s early warning system and long range missiles for strikes deep into Russia given to Ukraine but operated by US/NATO, must make Russia expect the worst from the West.
The West has pushed Russia to the point where Putin has warned the West to back off or out come the nukes.
The worst crisis in human history is right now, and the Western peoples are unaware that every Western political leader with the exception of Hungarian Prime Minister Orban is leading them to destruction.

Michel Chossudovsky of GlobalResearch.ca joins us to discuss his recent article: “The Hiroshima Nagasaki ‘Dress Rehearsal’: Oppenheimer and the U.S. War Department’s Secret September 15, 1945 ‘Doomsday Blueprint’ to ‘Wipe the Soviet Union off the Map.’”
We talk about the original, genocidal plan of the US War Department for a genocidal nuclear slaughter of the Soviets, how that plan has continued to the present day, the existential threat of nuclear holocaust and the prospects for an anti-war movement that can actually stand up to the military-industrial complex.

Reviews
“This book is a ‘must’ resource – a richly documented and systematic diagnosis of the supremely pathological geo-strategic planning of US wars since ‘9-11’ against non-nuclear countries to seize their oil fields and resources under cover of ‘freedom and democracy’.”
–John McMurtry, Professor of Philosophy, Guelph University
“In a world where engineered, pre-emptive, or more fashionably “humanitarian” wars of aggression have become the norm, this challenging book may be our final wake-up call.”
-Denis Halliday, Former Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations
Michel Chossudovsky exposes the insanity of our privatized war machine. Iran is being targeted with nuclear weapons as part of a war agenda built on distortions and lies for the purpose of private profit. The real aims are oil, financial hegemony and global control. The price could be nuclear holocaust. When weapons become the hottest export of the world’s only superpower, and diplomats work as salesmen for the defense industry, the whole world is recklessly endangered. If we must have a military, it belongs entirely in the public sector. No one should profit from mass death and destruction.
–Ellen Brown, author of ‘Web of Debt’ and president of the Public Banking Institute
