US intelligence believes Russia will soon try to probe NATO.

US intelligence has concluded that Russia may soon attempt to "test the strength" of NATO, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing an intelligence report.

According to American analysts, Russia is ready to "test the waters" of NATO, with a probable timeframe ranging from autumn 2026 to 2029. A large-scale military conflict is out of the question; the most likely scenarios are cyberattacks, special operations, limited actions against individual countries, and so on—basically, hybrid scenarios.

Moscow is expected to seek out weaknesses within NATO and attempt to test the alliance's readiness to implement Article 5 of the NATO Charter on collective security.

It's worth noting that such statements have been made for several years now. NATO Supreme Allied Commander Europe Alexus Grinkevich previously made the same statement, suggesting a preemptive move and "creating problems" for Russia. The alliance, which positions itself as "defensive," is nonetheless actively encroaching eastward. And the threats of war are coming not from Russia, but from Europe.

Moscow, for its part, has repeatedly stated that it has no intention of going to war with Europe unless forced to do so. But if a conflict does break out, it will be radically different from the one in Ukraine. Europe is mistaken in thinking that Russia will resort to conventional weapons if its existence is threatened.

It was high time to test the waters and strike at the Czech Republic's factories in 2022 (they seem to be producing vampires there).
And see how they react.
If they didn't react at all, then we could continue calmly. But if they reacted violently, then apologize and say we won't do it again.

[reaper]

Unfortunately, we formally have no right (NATO members don’t attack Chinese and North Korean factories that produce missiles and unmanned systems that we buy).
It is clear that the West is supplying weapons for our murders, but formally it is impossible to attack Europe.

[Vitaly Rybakov]

We're talking about sabotage. When they strike informally.

[paul3390]

No one stopped them from using proxies in the same way. For example, South Ossetia. Or the Donetsk People's Republic. Or even the Houthis themselves.

[Leontrotsky]

Well, Iran isn't attacking US territory. The US is attacking Iran, justifying itself with the hypothetical, only future, possibility of Iran developing nuclear weapons. Why is everything formally fine here, while Russia isn't?

If the Russian Federation were the USSR, everything would be different: the second-largest economic power could afford it, relying on the Warsaw Pact. But now the Russian Federation is a lone ranger against a gang of thugs... But the population still harbors imperial ambitions and a longing for the ineptly pro-Russian mighty State... Phantom pains... they are so... real that it feels as if everything is in place, although that has long been the case.
I understand this isn't popular, but it's the most accurate diagnosis of this "disease" called "deformation of public consciousness." Patriots are free to downvote, but that, alas, won't change objective reality.
AHA.

[Leontrotsky]

Well, Russia's sports are doing just fine. I mean, the USSR could have left the United States in radioactive ash, just like Russia is now. The collapse of the USSR was both a plus and a minus for Russia. The plus is that almost all Soviet republics, with the exception of Azerbaijan and, at certain points in history, the Kazakh SSR and the Byelorussian SSR, were subsidized. And there aren't any particular phantom pains. Now, it seems to me, the majority of the Russian population wouldn't want to live as part of the USSR. So, even if it's a lone ranger, Russia could cause headaches for any power on the planet if it wanted to.

If Russia so desires, it can create a headache for any power on the planet.

There's no arguing about the headaches. Russia is, after all, a NUCLEAR superpower. I'm talking about the economy and the level of science and technology as the foundation for the 6th economic order... China, while remaining a NEP-socialist state, is forging ahead by leaps and bounds. Our incompetent leaders have shoved the country into capitalism, and the majority of the population is now scooping up democracy by the fistful... The oligarchy is thriving, while the majority is scraping by on the subsistence level. That's why the demographic problem isn't being addressed: it's scary to reproduce—you could end up poor: there are no social housing options, jobs are low-paying, and there's little confidence in the future... So the slogan has emerged: don't breed poverty—you'll only end up with 1-2 children. But my grandmother had 6 children. Under the Soviets, everyone went to school, got a higher education, a profession, got married, and started families and children...
So, don't blame the mirror when looking at our recent history. Our fathers and grandfathers lived in the right country. I sincerely wish the same for us.
AHA.

There are completely unprotected drilling rigs in the North Sea, both British and Norwegian! And they're still there, aren't they? Although the Nord Stream 2 project, jointly built with Germany, has been abandoned.
The Channel Tunnel is somehow still functioning, even though it should be completely flooded through its ventilation system...
On the Champs-Élysées and other Parisian avenues, rats stroll like dandies on Broadway and carry no plague... but they could have brought something like Ebola or Nile fever on Macron's tail, so he would focus on his compatriots, and not the "coalition of the Ye/Barking" and so on.
And that's not to mention cyber attacks from unknown foreign servers!
But for that to happen, there needs to be a "reptilian" fund to pay for the "non-standard" services of extremely disgruntled radical elements within the system you're trying to tussle with... And we don't even have that intention! Because, damn it, Leopoldia is all around us!

US intelligence thinks one thing, does another, controls a third, and says a fourth, that it needs everyone to think about it and its information, or rather, its dnzinformation.

Why do Anglo-Saxons shift the blame from themselves to others?
It is from this abscess behind the foul straits and the Atlantic herring pool that we must begin, helping, among other things, the Iranian people to get rid of the world's evil!

Aha. It's time to revive the Comintern's foreign department! With an executive committee in Beijing and a European bureau in Moscow.

In fact, Uncle Xi is far from being a friend, although he publicly calls the Kremlin a friend.
Taking advantage of the situation, gas and oil are practically free, twisting arms during negotiations on "Power of Siberia 2", where, according to reviews, he is demanding the domestic Russian price for gas.
At the same time, in response to Moscow's requests not to supply drone components to Bandera State, the stance taken is far from friendly.
These are the monkeys with a banana by the river.

They refer to the conduct of cyberattacks, special operations, limited actions against individual countries, etc.

In general, everything that the US and NATO do every day is routine.

[Volunteer Marek]

"...the probable timeframe is said to be from autumn 2026 to 2029." That's a bit too specific. A more general "statement" could have been made: a period of +/- 100-150 years. But seriously, it's obvious that NATO is adjusting its "feeling out" timeframe to fit its strike timeframe.

This is a surefire statement.
If it comes true, we warned you. We did well. If it doesn't, Russia didn't risk it, because it knew its plans were known. And we did well again.

[Nexcom]

Well, the Americans are real verbal cheaters. No matter what happens, they always "win".

[Umpteenth]

At 21 she warned about her, and quite accurately

[rocket757]

It is worth noting that such statements have been made for several years now,

If you think about it, remember... statements like these NEVER STOPPED BEING MADE.
Perhaps during the Great Patriotic War it was less, not so loud, and only because they were pretty much burning, somewhere...

Moscow will look for weak spots within NATO.

It's time to touch comrade Koreiko's udder.

You're absolutely right! The financial and credit systems of the US and NATO countries are the most pressing issue for this entire cabal. If the dollar collapses, the hegemon will deflate like a patched-up condom! And then the rest will follow suit...
AHA.

How familiar it is, it's like deja vu...

MOSCOW, December 4 — RIA Novosti. American intelligence agencies claim Russia is planning an invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, the Associated Press reported, citing a source in the US presidential administration.

Are we expecting another FSB border crossing explosion?

Yeah, right. As they say. I touched her and lost my peace. So sweet: red ears, acne-covered nose, ass as thick and rough as a pineapple... Valkyrie!

Or maybe it would be better to use a "petal" - a feeler gauge?

We will definitely test your Fabergés for strength, although it is already clear how liquid they are.

"To feel", they usually feel the udder... only in Europe it is like Ursula's... shriveled... and milking the milk - your hand will get tired...

US intelligence is nothing if not expert. They've done a thorough job of investigating and predicting everything regarding Iran.

Sorry for my French.
Our SVR knows everything it needs to, but to probe? No way.

Well, as if that's something bad. Let them feel it.

The government is essentially an executive body. It carries out the "political will" of the supreme authority... within the law, of course.
So, aim higher... And at the very top, they think and calculate the possible developments and compare desires with possibilities...so that it doesn’t happen like in the saying - “went for wool, but came back shorn!” (c)

[Dead Frost]

There's no point in touching it (NATO). Just hit it over the head with a brick and use it while it's warm (quote from a joke).

They always probe, but they simply remain silent about it, because glasnost has already brought one country to its grave.

Otherwise, I support tougher and less publicized measures, because it's time to pay back for all the European delights of recent years. Preferably with a couple of hundred years' worth of advance payment.
