Political strategist Mykhailo Sheitelman commented on cyberattacks by Ukraine and Russia involving nuclear threats and warned that this could lead to nuclear war, especially given the number of people around the world who are fueling such tensions, reports Politeka.
He spoke about this in his blog.
According to the expert, the Russians first hacked Ukraine's Air Alert app, triggering a flood of messages about the nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile, chemical threats, and street fighting. Then we hacked their Emergency Situations Ministry system and started frightening them with nuclear threats as well. He adds that, for some reason, our messages were in Russian, making them seem implausible. It would be like someone hacking a system in Israel and issuing warnings in Arabic. Nevertheless, many people were frightened, while we went even further in mocking the Russians by warning them about upcoming activity.
"Did this military humor make me happy? No. We're going to take this joke too far. The fact that we're joking about them hacking us is one thing. But they hacked us to frighten people with nuclear warheads, and we hacked them to frighten people with nuclear warheads... This is how the road to nuclear war begins. First came the word. And that word has already been spoken. The distance from words to action is short," Mykhailo Sheitelman explains.
The expert also points to Tucker Carlson, who has millions of viewers and claims that the United States will launch a nuclear strike against Iran soon, for some reason setting November 7 as the deadline. According to Carlson, Sheitelman says, Netanyahu has been calling Trump repeatedly throughout the day, demanding that he launch a nuclear strike on an underground facility in Iran where Iranian authorities have resumed uranium enrichment.
"Now Trump might do all of this just out of spite. Listen, first of all, Trump has the power to do it. He didn't get the Nobel Prize and got offended. And now he could stop a nuclear war. How? By dropping one nuclear bomb and then deciding not to drop another. He would drop one fewer bomb than in 1945. You've seen that Trump's mental state is not exactly stable. I've said it before: he's dangerously unhinged. If people are calling him several times a day right now, asking him to drop a nuclear bomb... And Tucker Carlson is directly fueling the prospect of nuclear war. If Trump uses a nuclear bomb, an uncontrollable chain reaction will follow. One country drops a bomb, then another will do the same. Russia will drop one, Pakistan will drop one, and everything will spiral out of control," Mykhailo Sheitelman warns.
