Biden Approves New Nuclear Strategy Against Coordinated Attacks from Russia, China, And Best Korea

So, I guess we’re going to have a nuclear war to save democracy in the Ukraine?

Makes sense.

The Guardian:

Joe Biden has approved a new US nuclear strategy to prepare for possible coordinated nuclear confrontations with Russia, China and North Korea, according to a New York Times report published on Tuesday.

The deterrent policy takes into account a rapid build-up of China’s nuclear arsenal, which will rival the size and diversity of the US and Russian stockpiles over the next decade, and comes as Russian president Vladimir Putin of Russia has threatened to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine.

Biden approved the revised strategy – called the Nuclear Employment Guidance – in March, according to the Times, but an unclassified notification of the policy change has not yet been presented to Congress.

After years of nuclear arms reduction efforts, the administration has been signaling willingness to expand the US arsenal to counter China and Russia’s nuclear strategies more recently. In February, the US warned allies that Russia could be planning to put a nuclear weapon into space.

This isn’t really about the Ukraine though.

It’s about the US attempting to maintain global hegemony in the face of a rising China.

There is no timeline in which China does not become the most powerful country in the world, except the timeline in which the US rushes into a nuclear war. Even on such a timeline, China would still almost certainly win, because China is a huge country that cannot be conquered.

The thinking of the people in power in the US however is that because US industry and culture have failed so miserably, the only place where the US has any chance at combatting China is in the military realm.
