Worthless propaganda rag publishes obviously fake news. Lmao

Lathe time: NATO will carry out a false-flag attack against one of its member states (maybe Poland?) and say it was a false-flag attack carried out by the Russians.

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

seen-this-one a false flag in Poland to justify attacking Russia?

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wouldn't that just be a true flag? So it'd have to be a false-false-false flag.

[–] sleeplessone@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 week ago

More like they use US/NATO equipment without trying to make it look like the enemy's, then loudly proclaim that it was a false flag performed by Russian saboteurs. Maybe even have a fallguy in place to make a forced or fabricated confession that they did it on behalf of Russia.

I would personally guess some mossad/cia/mi6 guy flies a stolen Russian drone into Finland and explodes a power station.

The Scandinavian countries are completely brainwashed with russophobic propaganda and will gladly annihilate what's left of their welfare states for their american overlords if the ensuing anger and despair got directed towards Russia.

Poland is already all in with the NATOids, but there is still a lot of juice to squeeze out of the Scandinavian countries. It would also make it easier for the US to grab Greenland.

US to grab Greenland.

which would be lauded by the same ~~us~~ eu war hawks.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

Something more central in a large population area. They will want it to be big and flashy and caught on a lot of cameras for maximum news and social media impact.

[–] StillNoLeftLeft@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's this. There was an article on Finnish national news on how "Russian full scale mobilization is imminent" just days ago. They are ramping this bs up again.

My boomer dad unironically expects a Russian invasion daily, has for years. There's a lot of rabid unserious fucks like him here.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Very impressive of Russia to be able to do a full scale invasion of Finland while also having their entire army busy with their full scale invasion of Ukraine. I guess they just have a secret second army that no one knows about.

[–] WittyProfileName2@hexbear.net 2 points 6 days ago

They recruited another Russia from a paralel universe to the cause. There are theoretically infinite Russias each one more ravaged by oligarchs than the last.

[–] moss_icon@hexbear.net 27 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They’ve been “weeks away from attacking NATO” for about five years now

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago (3 children)

like how iran has been "weeks away from building nukes" since before i was born

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And China is about to collapse.

Also it's funny that they qarn that Russia is about to attack NATO while also claiming they are suffering devastating losses against Ukraine...

[–] orlando@hexbear.net 2 points 6 days ago

it collapses all the time. the 3 gorges dam burst on a repeating 48 schedule

Oh boy, we 'bout to do something stupid ain't we?

[–] Sword_of_Eos@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week ago

On one hand, they like to just say this shit from time to time. On the other hand, this is exactly what they'd say if they were about to escalate the Ukraine war or Iran war in some insane way that could provoke Russia.

The only ones to gain from an open war between nato and Russia is Ukraine. The west has a „good thing“ going, weakening Russia by bleeding Ukraine dry. Russia is still gaining terrain despite the recent Ukraine hype, an open war with NATO would turn a winnable war into an utter disaster for them.

Or is there something in there for Trump/US to decide to blow up Europe, that I‘m missing?

[–] Satanic_Mills@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

jagoff

Nato rolls worst consent manufacturing campaign of the century, asked to leave Ukraine.

[–] Gorillatactics@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

theyve been saying that for 5 years.

[–] Speaker@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

Because of how missiles work, I think technically they could attack NATO within hours. If we're doing dire hypotheticals, why half-ass it? Hell, give the little Eichmanns in Kiev the NATO membership carrot and then all will agree that Russia has retroactively been attacking NATO for years!

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

If Russia DID want to do this, wouldn't it make more sense to wait a bit longer after the missiles are depleted?

[–] Renin@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I'm sure the plan has been to get Europe to be able to handle itself, so that USA can handle the other regions, however...

They didn't consider that USA won't be able to handle the other regions. le-monke

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

I don't think this would happen because nukes.

But lets ignore nukes for a moment and pretend they don't exist. In that case, this would be the right time to do it. US has expended everything good that it has, lost their middle east foothold, is stretched beyond capacity, will take literally years to replenish stocks.

They don't even have to actually do it, they can just move some stuff around in a way that threatens to do it and their response would expose just how stretched the US is.

[–] Salah@hexbear.net 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don’t think we should treat it as an impossibility. Ukraine has been attacking Russian infrastructure and killing civilians in Russia with NATO support, that is asking for escalation from Russia’s side. A red flag attack is also possible though, we’ll see.

[–] Cricket@lemmy.zip 5 points 6 days ago

I think Putin would be too smart to do this. I can't see how openly attacking NATO countries militarily would benefit Russia in any way.
