Ex-Spy & Researcher EXPOSE NATO's Sick Plans To Sacrifice Europe | R. Rupp & O. Tunander

Description

The "Nuclear Umbrella" always was a sick joke in which the umbrella itself would do the dirty work of exterminating the place it was supposed to "keep clean" of enemy forces. Today I speak with Ola Tunander, professor emeritus at the Peace Research Institute Oslo, and Rainer Rupp, former NATO analyst and East German spy, about the real meaning of the US nuclear umbrella. We discuss deterrence, tactical nuclear plans in Germany and Norway, Sweden’s old bomb debate, Pershing missiles, Able Archer, and the risk that Europe could again become the main nuclear battlefield.
