U.S. Will Station New Nuclear Weapons in Germany Against Russia

By Eric Zuesse | Aletho News | September 22, 2015

Germany’s ZDF public television network headlines on Tuesday September 22nd, “New U.S. Atomic Weapons to Be Stationed in Germany,” and reports that the U.S. will bring into Germany 20 new nuclear bombs, each being four times the destructive power of the one that was used on Hiroshima. Hans Kristensen, the Director of the Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists, says, “With the new bombs the boundaries blur between tactical and strategic nuclear weapons.”

A former Parliamentary State Secretary in Germany’s Defense Ministry, Willy Wimmer, of Chancellor Merkel’s own conservative party, the Christian Democratic Union, warns that these “new attack options against Russia” constitute “a conscious provocation of our Russian neighbors.”

German Economic News also reports on Chancellor Merkel’s decision to allow these terror-weapons against Russia: “The Bundestag decided in 2009, expressing the will of most Germans, that the US should withdraw its nuclear weapons from Germany. But German Chancellor Angela Merkel did nothing.” And now she okays the U.S. to increase America’s German-based nuclear arsenal against Russia.

Maria Zakharova, of the Russian Foreign Ministry, says: “This is an infringement of Articles 1 and 2 of the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons,” which is the treaty that provides non-nuclear states the assurance that the existing nuclear powers will not try to use their nuclear status so as to take over the world.

German Economic News says: “The federal government had demanded the exact opposite: The Bundestag decided in March 2010 by a large majority, that the federal government should ‘press for the withdrawal of US nuclear weapons from Germany.’ Even the coalition agreement between the CDU and FDP, the German government in 2009 had promised the withdrawal of nuclear weapons from Büchel. But instead there will be these new bombs.”

  1. This is an act of military aggression, in a premeditated conspiracy to demand complete and total surrender of Russia into the fascist imperialist thugs of the USA and it’s European accomplices, overtly and covertly.

    Obama is a war criminal, and under the US War Crime Act of 1996, could and should, be prosecuted as such, along with his co-conspirators nationally and internationally.

    There has NEVER been a greater threat to “national security” than this totally unjustified wanton act of madness military aggression! which by extension, portends bring to reality the nightmares depicted in science fiction films of decades gone-bye, as ‘On The Beach’ and ‘Dr. Strangelove’ for prime examples. But, this will be no accident, but wanton acts of aggression worse than anything that has ever happened before, and never again for that matter, for civilization will not survive and thrive World War III.

    All nuclear plants are targeted. Meaning our planet will be radiated beyond recovery for millions of years, and perhaps evolution can somehow manifest something that might be able to find a trice of what planet Earth was like before it became hell, and burned beyond recognition and never walked or crawled upon by any form of life, and just await being absorbed into the Sun when it enters its phase of exhaustion, into a red giant that will be obliterated completed with the Sun itself in a few billion years.
