We may be faced with the choice of accepting a terrifying precedent: That nuclear armed powers can use nuclear weapons on their neighbors so long as they threaten to escalate the conflict and endanger European and American cities.

If Nuclear weapons are deployed and used, it's of NATO's own making. The U.S. nearly had a nuclear war with Russia when Russia placed missile in Cuba. How do you think Russia will feel if NATO missiles were placed in Ukraine aimed at Russia? No different. If Nukes are used now, it's because NATO WANTS them to be used. So much for peace through strength. More like War through stupidity and arrogance.

If the leaders who take us to wmd use, their gravestones should be urinals…and if I survive their failure, I will gladly “visit” their graves and express my “admiration”

Gingrich is just another governmental warmonger. Putin said ... if we (Russia) are attacked with nuclear weapons, we will retaliate with nuclear weapons. I fear much more that NATO/US will use them because their combined hardware is being used up in Ukraine.

This Administration and the Neocon Nazis set the stage for this and have done everything to prod Russia into using Nukes or at the very least giving Nato the excuse to attack Russia directly. Progressive Democrats/Democrats/Neocons and WEF acolytes are the manifestation of pure Evil.

"Certainly, the Biden administration has failed to set the stage for nuclear deterrence — having already failed catastrophically in Afghanistan and completely misread the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Remember: Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Mark Milley said publicly that the Russians would be in Kiev in three days. As proof of how wrong American intelligence was, the United States offered to fly President Zelenskyy to safety if he agreed the fight was hopeless."
We all should be very scared.
Biden does not think for himself, and no doubt, there are people around Biden telling him to never use nukes. The greenies are anti-nuke. The people that hate a strong America would never use nukes. These are the people advising Biden and running the government in his name. All they will do is send out a 'feisty' Biden who will act like he is talking to Corn Pop, and nobody will believe that act. Also, in an act of desperation, watch Biden over-react and somehow make matters worse.

This is the sort of tiresome argument that has been de riguer for a long time. Not only is America (and/or NATO) responsible for its own actions, but it also assumes responsibilty for Russia/ISIS/Al Qaeda/Iran/China actions as well.
It is stupid because it removes all human agency from those actors. They are just single-celled organisms responding to stimuli in a predictable way. They cannot respond to that stimuli in any other way.
Do you suppose that in Russia or China there are writers that are saying, "Of course America responded in that way. What choice did they have after we did __________?"
I assure you there are NO "intellectuals" making that argument in other countries.

Russia is threatening nuclear weapons because we are over there. Democrats, Republicans, and NGO's have been busy in Ukraine, Russia's back yard, for a long time, and they are responsible for this war.

Joining in the foolish hysteria about this is unbecoming, Newt. I thought you were smarter than this.

I don’t believe Newt is being hysterical. We are in a serious situation and it only is compounded by this administration. There has been no real effort to sit down and have any discussion. Surely, there is an option other than war. Unfortunately, I do believe there are individuals in and outside of government who want war, but this is the last thing we need. I pray that clear thinking will prevail but with this administration when have they ever improved a situation. It’s always a disaster with these folks.

#10, Gingrich is trying to play both sides ... he wants to be above the fray. Comments like his DO inflame hysteria.... and when people are afraid, they'll do anything they're told to do. We went through this with the Covid19 epidemic. People have always died when there are epidemics. It's our fate. But the fear the governments create over disease is unwarranted except to make people compliant.
When we recognize that the threat of nuclear war is created governmental leaders, we need to ask why! We need to make them accountable for their statements! We need to refuse to be afraid of them or their threats!

We'll know by election day if Newt is right or is blowing smoke. Putie holds his cards close whereas biden the cheater lacks the cognitive ability to play cards. One guy is dying of cancer and the other guy has advancing dementia. What could possibly go wrong.

Putin calculations of the resources he would need for his incursion overlooked a crucial detail: he did not expect the extent to which the US would become involved. At this point the conflict is a proxy war, and all recent gains claimed the Ukraine attributable to the massive infusion of US technology and, I expect, personnel.
Biden's mouth-whoever controls it- has promised US aid for years to come. Only a new congress can end this.

Mark Levin, on his afternoon radio talk show, is beside himself because Biden, at a Democrat fundraiser, warned of a nuclear Armageddon. Welcome to the club, Mark. Those of us who wanted this war nipped in the bud as soon as possible, even if it meant that Russia annexed the eastern part of Ukraine, were referred to as Putinoids by Levin who madly cheered every escalation into the fray by the United States. Levin and other warm mongers such as Lindsay Graham allowed their hatred of Putin to cloud their judgment. Why would any rational individual want an escalating conflict with Russia under the leadership of Joe Biden and the incompetents who pull his strings.
On the radio today Levin suggested that Putin should be taken out. Our fingerprints, of course, would not be on that assassination or purge. Considering how taking out Fidel Castro proved impossible for this country to do I find Levin's exhortation to be frankly insane.
My hope is that the feckless Europeans, who are most affected by this war, tell Biden and the Putin-hating war mongers to jump in a lake. End this war. Give Putin an off ramp. No NATO for Ukraine.

The web of alliances that essentially brought on WW1 is today called NATO, and it has one purpose: Contain Russia in Europe. It has expanded to Russia's borders and continues to expand, even making Ukraine's dispute with Russia its own cause - so far only aided by materiel transfers. The Russians have proven themselves a second-rate land power, at best. Its command structure, tactics and equipment can hardly stand up to the West's obsolete stuff sent to Ukraine. Unless, or until the US (de facto NATO) inserts itself diplomatically to shut this war down, it can only slide further toward the day when Putin feels compelled to act with his nuclear arsenal. As Newt points out, this is like July 1914. One wonders what NATO's end game is...or planned to be. And what is Russia's facing defeat?
