The Biden-Harris Administration loudly warned about the possibility that their dangerous war games in Ukraine with Putin’s Russia could lead to World War 3 just two years ago in 2022, indicating that sending U.S. tanks and trains in via Ukraine to attack Russia is “called World War III.”
Now, as POLITICO reports, the Biden-Harris White House is finalizing plans to expand the list of possible targets within Russia Ukraine will have the ability to strike.
According to POLITICO, “discussions between Washington and Kyiv about loosening the Biden administration’s policy on Ukraine [striking high value targets inside of Russia] come after Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov visited Washington on Aug. 30. During that visit, he presented U.S. officials with a list of high-value targets his military could hit inside Russia if the U.S. were to ease restrictions.”
In what is being called a major reversal by POLITICO, the Biden administration quietly gave Ukraine permission to strike inside Russia using U.S.-provided weapons in May of this year.
Putin has long indicated that NATO and U.S. saber rattling near Russia’s western border to Ukraine’s east would represent an act of war.
Putin says that if Ukraine uses long-range missiles on Russia it will mean ‘nothing less than the direct participation of NATO,’ according to SKY News.
“‘If this decision is made, it will mean nothing less than the direct participation of Nato countries, the United States, and European countries in the war in Ukraine.’ That would mean they were ‘fighting Russia’, he added.
“So this is not a question of allowing the Ukrainian regime to strike Russia with these weapons or not. It is a question of deciding whether or not NATO countries are directly involved in a military conflict,” Putin told Russian state TV.
Russia would be forced to take what Putin called “appropriate decisions” based on the potential for Ukraine and NATO to strike deep inside of Russia.
Russian President Vladimir Putin warned the West in March that a direct conflict between Russia and the U.S.–led NATO military alliance would mean the planet was one step away from World War Three. He also said hardly anyone wanted such a scenario.
NATO has for decades tried to sell the idea that they don’t want war.
The NATO-Russia Founding Act of 1997 stipulated that NATO would not permanently base combat forces in Eastern Europe or put nuclear weapons in eastern Europe.
NATO then violated that pledge by establishing multinational battlegroups in Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania and Slovakia.
Some are tiring of constant U.S. meddling and war mongering. One member of Polish parliament has flatly demanded that Anthony Blinken, Biden’s boy over at the State Department, “go home.”
Even the United Nations is opposed to NATO, Blinken, and the west opening up long range strikes within Russia out of Ukraine.
Stephane Dujarric, a spokesman for the UN Secretary General, went on record with her statement after the U.S. and U.K. approved Western-made weapons to strike deep into Russia from inside Ukraine.
Dujarric said the “rhetoric that we’re hearing is yet another indication that we are not moving towards the end of this conflict.”
And Deep State rag The Economist complains publicly that America is forcing Ukraine to fight with its hands tied, even while they celebrate that the war in Ukraine is boosting Israel’s arms export business. Money Grubbing really is what it’s all about, isn’t it?
Newsweek reported that Israel did in fact provide an aid package for Ukraine in the NATO effort to expand eastward into Russia.
Biden’s Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said allowing deep strikes inside Russia with Western weapons would not be a game-changer, according to Reuters.
The news outlet most directly responsible for bringing us this news, POLITICO, represents, reports on, and is funded by the worst of the worst corporations involved with both the killing of human beings with weapons, and the killing of the reporting about the killing of those human beings.
POLITICO is heavily funded by Raytheon, Northrup Grumman, Nikki Haley’s favorite plane manufacturer Boeing, and of course Lockheed Martin — the world’s largest weapons manufacturer. POLITICO even tried to scrub, any evidence of ties to Lockheed, according to Responsible Statecraft.
Biden said: “The idea that we’re going to send in offensive equipment and have planes and tanks and trains going in with American pilots and American crews, just understand, that’s called World War III, okay? Let’s get it right.”
Biden made the bellicose comments recently, in March of 2022 at the House Democratic Caucus Issues Conference meeting in Philadelphia.

Commentators are responding.
David Sacks warned via X that “The White House is ready to green-light use of American missiles to strike targets deep inside of Russia. The Russians have many ways to retaliate. Why are we taking this risk? Ukraine is neither a treaty ally nor a vital interest. Biden himself once warned this could cause WW3.”

Fact checkers tried their hardest to say Biden didn’t say what he said. They’re clearly lying.
THE CLAIM: Biden said sending tanks to Ukraine would be the start of World War III
USA TODAY RATING: False
National File gives USA TODAY 10 Bloody O.J. Gloves for this dishonest fact check.
So-called “Fact Checks” like the USA TODAY one above have led to a breakdown in trust in the media.
Even the far-left Poynter Institute, which is heavily funded by the same industry players who fund the media, reports that only about 7% of adults trust the media.
The mainstream media has descended into what many online commentators now regularly refer to as an extended gaslighting campaign.
THE HILL, true to form, resembled that characterization in the summer of 2023 when it tried to blame Donald Trump for escalating the nuclear threat before he left office, over two-and-a-half years earlier.
Not to be outdone, Newsweek ran a headline reading, “Donald Trump’s Nuclear War Remarks Raise Eyebrows.”
Readers of National File will not be surprised to learn that the Council on Foreign Relations’ flagship rag called “Foreign Policy” is the progenitor of such fear mongering.
“There’s Nothing Between an Unstable President and the Nuclear Button,” blares the CFR headline.
“As Trump consolidates the Republican Party nomination, it is past time to ensure that no president can authorize an unnecessary or illegal nuclear attack,” Adam Mount writes.
But the POLITICO report flies in the face of this projection and gaslighting.
Indeed, Biden and Harris have been working on means to expand weapon usage inside Russia for months, according to the POLITICO report.
“In May, the Biden administration decided to let Ukraine use certain weapons to hit inside Russia,”
Indeed, “Secretary of State Antony Blinken and his British counterpart David Lammy were in Kyiv on Wednesday to huddle with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to discuss the weapons issue,” as POLITICO reports.
Hawkish groups like the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) blame Joe Biden for not pursuing enough nuclear confrontation, and are calling on NATO to arm up.
Biden has thus far refused to dignify reporters questions about the impending nuclear threat he seems to have caused, and even scolded a reporter who asked a question about it.
Kamala Harris has said that “the United States will continue to strongly support Ukraine… for as long as it takes” while speaking at the 2023 Munich Security Conference.
