De VS
op nucleair oorlogspad: B52 nucleaire bommenwerpers, voor 't eerst in 26
jaar, klok rond inzetbaar..........
Om de
wereld nog eens te laten zien, dat de VS schijt heeft aan vrede en alle
ontwapeningsverdragen, vooral die voor nucleaire wapens*, heeft
het Pentagon na 26 jaar, met instemming van het 666 beest Trump, besloten met
atoomwapens geladen B52 bommenwerpers weer de klokrond 'gemobiliseerd' te houden........
Als
reden geeft het Pentagon onder meer aan dat het nu eenmaal een
gevaarlijke wereld is...... ha! ha! ha! ha!ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! Inderdaad
het is een gevaarlijke wereld en daar is maar een 'land'
verantwoordelijk voor, de grootste terreurentiteit die de aarde ooit
zag: de VS!!!
De wapenindustrie en de aandeelhouders kunnen feestvieren met deze beslissing van het Pentagon en Trumps junta (gedomineerd door militairen...)..................

For The First Time In 26 Years, US To Put Nuclear Bombers On 24 Hour Alert

The
unexpected decision by President Trump to amend
an emergency Sept 11 order signed by
George W Bush, allowing the Air Force to recall up to 1,000 retired
air force pilots to address what the Pentagon has decribed as "an
acute shortage of pilots" caught us by surprise. After all, this
was the first time we have heard of this particular labor shortage -
perhaps there was more to this executive order than meets the eye.
Indeed, a just released report may help explain the reasoning behind
this presidential decision.
According
to Defense
One, the
US Air Force is preparing to put nuclear-armed bombers back on
24-hour ready alert, a status not seen since the Cold War ended in
1991.
That
means the long-dormant concrete pads at the ends of Barksdale Air
Force Base's 11,000-foot runway — dubbed the “Christmas tree”
for their angular markings — could once again find several B-52s
parked on them, laden with nuclear weapons and set to take off at a
moment’s notice.
“This
is yet one more step in ensuring that we’re prepared,” Gen.
David Goldfein, Air Force chief of staff, told the publication in an
interview during his six-day tour of Barksdale and other U.S. Air
Force bases that support the nuclear mission. “I
look at it more as not planning for any specific event, but more for
the reality of the global situation we find ourselves in and how we
ensure we’re prepared going forward.”
Quoted
by Defense One, Goldfein and other senior defense officials stressed
that the alert order had not been given, but that preparations were
under way in anticipation that it might come. That decision would be
made by Gen. John Hyten, the commander of U.S. Strategic Command, or
Gen. Lori Robinson, the head of U.S. Northern Command. STRATCOM is in
charge of the military’s nuclear forces and NORTHCOM is in charge
of defending North America.
Putting
the B-52s back on alert is just one of many decisions facing the Air
Force as the U.S. military responds to a changing geopolitical
environment that includes North Korea’s rapidly advancing nuclear
arsenal, President Trump’s confrontational approach to Pyongyang,
and Russia’s increasingly potent and active armed forces.
Goldfein,
who is the Air Force’s top officer and a member of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff, is
asking his force to think about new ways that nuclear weapons could
be used for deterrence, or even combat.
Quoted
by Def One, he said that “the world is a dangerous place and we’ve
got folks that are talking openly about use of nuclear weapons. It’s
no longer a bipolar world where it’s just us and the Soviet
Union. We’ve
got other players out there who have nuclear capability. It’s never
been more important to make sure that we get this mission
right.” During
his trip across the country last week, Goldfein encouraged airmen to
think beyond Cold War uses for ICBMs, bombers and nuclear cruise
missiles.
“I’ve
challenged…Air Force Global Strike Command to help lead the dialog,
help with this discussion about ‘What does conventional conflict
look like with a nuclear element?’ and ‘Do we respond as a global
force if that were to occur?’ and ‘What are the options?’” he
said. “How do we think about it — how do we think about
deterrence in that environment?”
Asked if placing B-52s back on alert — as they were for decades — would help with deterrence, Goldfein said it’s hard to say.
“Really
it depends on who, what kind of behavior are we talking about, and
whether they’re paying attention to our readiness status,” he
said.
Meanwhile,
various improvements have already been made to prepare Barksdale —
home to the 2d Bomb Wing and Air Force Global Strike Command, which
oversees the service’s nuclear forces — to
return B-52s to an alert posture. Near
the alert pads, an old concrete building — where B-52 crews during
the Cold War would sleep, ready to run to their aircraft and take off
at a moment’s notice — is being renovated.
Inside,
beds are being installed for more than 100 crew members, more than
enough room for the crews that would man bombers positioned on the
nine alert pads outside. There’s a recreation room, with a pool
table, TVs and a shuffleboard table. Large paintings of the patches
for each squadron at Barksdale adorn the walls of a large stairway.
One
painting — a symbol of the Cold War — depicts a silhouette of a
B-52 with the words “Peace The Old Fashioned Way,” written
underneath. At the bottom of the stairwell, there is a Strategic Air
Command logo, yet another reminder of the Cold War days when American
B-52s sat at the ready on the runway outside.
Those
long-empty B-52 parking spaces will soon get visits by two nuclear
command planes, the E-4B Nightwatch and E-6B Mercury, both which will
occasionally sit alert there. During a nuclear war, the planes would
become the flying command posts of the defense secretary and STRATCOM
commander, respectively. If a strike order is given by the president,
the planes would be used to transmit launch codes to bombers, ICBMs
and submarines. At least one of the four nuclear-hardened E-4Bs —
formally called the National Airborne Operations Center, but commonly
known as the Doomsday Plane — is always on 24-hour alert.
Barksdale
and other bases with nuclear bombers are preparing to build storage
facilities for a new nuclear cruise missile that is under
development. During his trip, Goldfein received updates on the
preliminary work for a proposed replacement for the 400-plus
Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missiles, and the new
long-range cruise missile.
And
now that the US is preparing for immediate nuclear war readiness, all
it needs is a provocation, one which a world which has never been
more on edge over a stray tweet, may have little difficulty in
finding...
