Comment: All of what is quoted below could be highlighted for emphasis, bearing in mind that this ominous warning is coming from the former President of Russia, and so, rather than do that, the reader is instead encouraged to read it in full.


Western "half-wits" from "stupid think tanks" are leading their countries down the road of nuclear armageddon with their hybrid war against Moscow, former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev wrote on his Telegram channel on Tuesday. Endlessly funneling weapons and support to Ukraine while pretending not to be directly involved in the conflict will not work, added the deputy chair of the Russian Security Council.

The "security guarantees" proposal unveiled by Kiev on Tuesday was "really a prologue to the Third World War," said Medvedev, calling it a "hysterical appeal" to Western countries engaged in a proxy war against Russia.

If the West continues its "unrestrained pumping of the Kiev regime with the most dangerous types of weapons," Russia's military campaign will move to the next level, where "visible boundaries and potential predictability of actions by the parties to the conflict" will be erased and the conflict will take on a life of its own, as wars always do, Medvedev argued.

"And then the Western nations will not be able to sit in their clean homes, laughing at how they carefully weaken Russia by proxy. Everything will be on fire around them. Their people will harvest their grief in full. The land will be on fire and the concrete will melt," Medvedev wrote, before citing a Bible verse from Revelations 9:18.


Comment: Here's a snippet from Revelations 9:18:
18 A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths. 19 The power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails were like snakes, having heads with which they inflict injury.

20 The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood โ€” idols that cannot see or hear or walk. 21 Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.
Sounds like a close enough description of the West with their election of the incompetent and outright pathological; their worship of fame, wealth, scientism, and materialism; the decades of needless and endless death and destruction wrought by their imperialist wars; the depravity promoted by the entertainment industry; and children's lives increasingly being destroyed by groomer teachers, doctors, and even, in some cases, with the blessing of their parents.


"Yet still the narrow-minded politicians and their stupid think tanks, thoughtfully twirling a glass of wine in their hands, talk about how they can deal with us without entering into a direct war. Dull idiots with a classical education," Medvedev wrote.

His comments were prompted by Kiev's publication of a "security treaty" proposal, developed under the tutelage of former NATO secretary-general Anders Fogh Rasmussen. The draft envisions the US and its allies guaranteeing Ukraine's pre-2014 borders with weapons, ammunition, financial assistance and training, as well as committing to maintain sanctions against Russia for as long as Kiev wants, and handing over any confiscated Russian property to Ukraine.
