A Wake-Up Call for Devout Catholics

The article below is one of many available on the internet. I realize that there are a number of so-called U.S. civilian-military “experts” who would argue otherwise about Russia’s capabilities (God forbid, they included the PRC, N. Korea, and other nations as allies).
Catholic prophecies indicate that Russia will suddenly and effectively strike Western Europe with what Catholic prophets such as Sr. Elena Aiello call “surprise armies.” Yet, little is mentioned about the U.S.A. Devout Roman Catholics must remember that the "Consecration of Russia" by the Pope in union with the Bishops from around the world has not taken place. Catholic prophecies say it will be very late.
The Possibility of a Preemptive Strike
This causes me to wonder: Could Russia and her allies conduct a preemptive strike on North America? If so, how would our so-called European allies behave? Keep in mind that Catholic prophecies declare that a number of these countries will be in civil war. I suspect they would betray NATO and the U.S. This would open the door for Russia to suddenly attack Europe.
I hope I am wrong! Yet, with all the perverse behavior in this country and the corrupt, satanic leadership of our politicians, religious, and business elite, I am inclined to believe that the Almighty may well let Russia succeed in a preemptive strike. Such an event would align with what few Catholic prophecies that I documented (videos) occurred in this country (most are in Central and South America); particularly – The Great Fires of October 8 and 12, 1871 and particularly Our Lady of Hope’s apparition just prior to the Peshtigo Fire in Northern Wisconsin. I contend that America may experience what the holy victim of Nagasaki, Takashi Nagai, called – “Hansai” or holocaust/whole burnt offering. He said, “Only with this hansai… the Christian flock of Nagasaki was true to the Faith… Here was the one pure lamb that had to be sacrificed as hansai on His altar…”
Perhaps, with our church leadership so corrupt, it becomes our Catholic responsibility to offer ourselves as a sacrifice for the sake of humanity. Something to contemplate.

TOTAL NUCLEAR WAR: 5,580 Nukes on Standby
Russia Declares National Threat After Trump’s Latest Move Opens the Door for NATO to Flood Ukraine With U.S. Weapons.
July 20, 2025 – Oppose Zone
Russia has issued a chilling nuclear warning following President Trump’s endorsement of a NATO-backed weapons transfer plan that allows European allies to purchase billions of dollars’ worth of U.S.-made weapons systems destined for Ukraine — systems that Ukraine now has explicit permission to use against Russian territory.
With 5,580 nuclear warheads on standby, Moscow has effectively declared the West a legitimate nuclear target. The red lines are gone. We are in uncharted, catastrophic territory.
For anyone still clinging to the illusion that World War III is avoidable — let this be your wake-up call! World War III is not on the horizon. It is not a potential future. It is happening now, unfolding in real time while our leaders distract us with slogans and selfies. The Cold War is over — what lies ahead is far hotter.
The Risk of Miscalculation
We’ve entered a phase where the margin for error is zero. One glitch. One misread radar. One miscalculated move by a rogue leader. That’s all it takes. And when it happens, it won’t be a slow burn. It will be sudden, absolute, and irreversible.
Kremlin Doctrine Shifts: Every Western Move Now Risks a Thermonuclear Response
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov delivered the signal loud and clear: Russia’s nuclear doctrine is not just intact — it’s operational. The recent U.S. decision to greenlight arms sales to Ukraine via European NATO states, announced by Donald Trump, has ignited deep fears in Moscow.
What Western media won’t tell you is that Russia has redefined its doctrine. According to that doctrine, any aggression against Russia or its allies — even by non-nuclear states — can now be interpreted as a direct act of war if supported by a nuclear power. That means any NATO-backed operation inside Ukraine that targets Russian forces — or even territory Russia claims as its own — could be seen as justification for a nuclear first strike. This isn’t theory. It’s written policy.
The Size and Capability of Russia’s Nuclear Arsenal
Russia’s nuclear playbook was rewritten in 2023 to explicitly allow the use of nuclear weapons not only in response to WMDs or threats to the state’s existence, but also in the case of large-scale conventional attacks — especially those supported by NATO powers. That’s you, America. That’s Europe.
And let us be clear: Ukraine, now armed with U.S. long-range strike weapons, is openly discussing hitting Russian soil. The Kremlin no longer sees this as a distant threat. They see it as an ongoing, real-time escalation — one that justifies nuclear retaliation under their revised rules of engagement.
Nuclear Arsenal: Larger, Faster, Deadlier Than the West Can Comprehend
Russia holds the largest nuclear stockpile on Earth:
5,580 total nuclear warheads
4,300 operational, ready to launch
1,710 deployed on ICBMs, submarines, and strategic bombers
Among these are the RS-28 Sarmat (Satan II), capable of carrying up to 16 warheads and penetrating any U.S. missile defense. There’s also the RS-26 Rubezh, designed for regional decapitation strikes, and the RS-24 Yars, loaded with multiple independently targetable warheads (MIRVs), deployed both in mobile and silo-based configurations. Coming soon is the Kedr system, meant to replace the Yars and expand Russia’s mobile strike capabilities even further.
Let’s be blunt: these are not Cold War relics. These are next-gen nuclear systems, refined and tested for modern warfare.
And unlike the United States, Russia has hypersonic missiles, “black hole” submarines nearly impossible to track, and autonomous nuclear torpedo drones capable of delivering 100-megaton warheads across the globe — all equipped with super cavitating torpedoes ten times faster than anything in the U.S. Navy.
America’s Military: Hollowed Out and Unprepared
Let’s face it: America is no longer a superpower in real military terms.
We have no hypersonic weapons in full deployment.
We have no 25-megaton nuclear warheads.
We lack electronic warfare dominance — Russia doesn’t.
We have no effective missile defense — Russia does.
We can’t even mine or enrich uranium, thanks to deals signed under Hillary Clinton.
We have no stealth submarines that can vanish beneath enemy sonar — Russia does.
Even our torpedoes are slow, outdated, and loud.
Meanwhile, Russia’s Poseidon drones cruise silently beneath the sea, waiting. Let that sink in: America’s military has been gutted from within and is poised to be crushed from without. Yet we prance about our cities waving flags, funding foreign wars, policing pronouns, and worshiping technology — while the most terrifying military machine ever assembled prepares to strike. We are not ready — not spiritually, not mentally, not militarily.
Russia’s Final Warning — And Ours
Peskov’s statement was not a random comment. It was a warning — perhaps the last one we’ll get. Moscow has signaled that the next strike from the West might cross a final line. If NATO’s weapons enable Ukraine to hit deep into Russian-held territory, the Kremlin now reserves the right to strike back with nuclear weapons — even if no nukes were used against them.
They’ve redefined “sufficiency” in their arsenal. What was once a “last resort” is now a flexible option.
And make no mistake: ambiguity in Russia’s doctrine is not a bug — it’s a feature. It’s designed to make the West hesitate, to plant fear in the minds of decision-makers in Washington, Brussels, and London.
But is anyone listening?
We have poured trillions into pointless wars, broken alliances, and globalist experiments. We let ideology rot the spine of our military, politics, and society. We ignored the threat — even laughed at it.
We won’t be laughing when the sky lights up at 4:00 a.m.
