The U.S. Government now clearly does intend a blitz all-out nuclear attack simultaneously against Russia China, and possibly also North Korea, despite the scientific analyses showing that the consequence of such a WW3 will be at least a 50% die-off of the entire planet’s human population within just the first two years after the explosions.

On August 29th, MIT’s Dr. Theodore Postol, America’s leading nuclear-war scientist, headlined at The Quincy Institute, which is the leading think tank about nuclear war, “Biden’s ‘new’ nuclear strategy and the super-fuse that sets it off: Biden’s ‘new’ nuclear strategy and the super-fuse that sets it off: The military is already upgrading warheads capable of fighting a war with both China and Russia simultaneously.”
Dr. Postol reports:
Although any technically accurate assessment of the physical consequences of the large-scale use of nuclear weapons instantly shows that “winning” a nuclear war has no meaning, the United States has strenuously emphasized the development of nuclear weapons technologies that could make sense only if their intended purpose is for fighting and winning nuclear wars.
The super-fuze is exactly that kind of technology.
It is now possible, at least according to nuclear war-fighting strategies, for the U.S. to attack the more than 300 ICBM silo-based ICBMs that China has been building since about 2020 with the copious numbers of available 100kt W-76 Trident II warheads. The rapid expansion in “hard-target kill capability” of the 100 kt W-76 warhead also makes it simultaneously possible for the U.S. to attack the roughly 300 silo-based Russian ICBMs.
Couching the development and deployment of these kinds of preemptive strike technologies in misleading terms like “enhancing deterrence,” does not fool the military and political leadership of Russia and China. It instead leaves them no choice but to consider ways of deterring a dangerous U.S. preemption-oriented nuclear-weaponized nation that is constantly striving for better ways to “disarm” large parts of their nuclear forces.
