Can We Prevent Nuclear War With Russia?

Dear Antiwar.com Reader,

Today, Russia holds the largest nuclear arsenal in the world. Yet our U.S. Congress has approved over $112 billion to fund its proxy war against Russia in Ukraine. There is no end in sight to this disastrous conflict. No peace talks are on the horizon, thanks to the covert and not-so-covert operations of the War Party.

Every day the Biden administration escalates US involvement. Recent reports suggesting that the US is helping Ukraine strike deep inside Russia, hitting air bases that house Russian strategic bombers.

For us at Antiwar.com, this is the nightmare scenario we have warned against for decades. The War Party’s incessant meddling in Ukraine, as well as in other sovereign nations worldwide, has escalated tensions with Moscow to a fever pitch.

And things can get even worse as the Pentagon mulls sending extra troops to Ukraine in the name of "oversight." Readers of Antiwar.com will surely remember the "military advisors" sent to Southeast Asia, who coincidentally were the first US troops involved in the shamefully long war in Vietnam. As US defense contractors sign off on multi-year deals, supplying Ukraine with high tech military equipment continuously, for a possible 10 years or more into the future, we at Antiwar.com and you, our diligent Reader, know we have heard this one before. But now, the stakes are much higher, as this conflict could mean nuclear annihilation.

Today, the threat of war with Russia has never been so dire. Some nuclear weapons experts warn that the risk of nuclear war is higher now than at any time during the Cold War.

Many feel helpless as we careen toward World War III, but our only hope for real change is the continued timely, clear, and accurate revelation of true information to the public. This is the only way we have any hope of winning against the War Machine’s reckless policies and ceaseless propaganda.

Antiwar.com continues to be one of the most essential and widely-read foreign policy sites online.
