Russian analyst urges nuclear attack on Yellowstone National Park and San Andreas Fault line to destroy U.S.
April 2015 – YELLOWSTONE - Russian
geopolitical analyst says the best way to attack the United States is
to detonate nuclear weapons to trigger a supervolcano at Yellowstone
National Park or along the San Andreas fault-line on California’s coast.
The president of the Academy of Geopolitical Problems based in Moscow,
Konstantin Sivkov said in an article for a Russian trade newspaper on
Wednesday, VPK News, that Russia needed to increase its military weapons
and strategies against the “West’ which was “moving to the borders or
Russia.” He has a conspiracy theory that NATO – a political and military
alliance which counts the US, UK, Canada and many countries in western
Europe as members – was amassing strength against Russia and the only
way to combat that problem was to attack America’s vulnerabilities to
ensure a “complete destruction of the enemy.”
“Geologists believe that the
Yellowstone supervolcano could explode at any moment. There are signs of
growing activity there. Therefore it suffices to push the relatively
small, for example the impact of the munition megaton class to initiate
an eruption. The consequences will be catastrophic for the United States
– a country just disappears,’ he said. “Another vulnerable area of
the United States from the geophysical point of view, is the San
Andreas fault – 1300 kilometers between the Pacific and North American
plates … a detonation of a nuclear weapon there can trigger catastrophic
events like a coast-scale tsunami which can completely destroy the
infrastructure of the United States.” He said the Russian geography on
the other hand would protect it from a tsunami or a volcano attack. Few
people live on the coast in Russia and Siberia which rests on basalt
would withstand similar attacks. Mr. Sivkov, who spoke at the 2013
Moscow Economic Forum, said by 2020 to 2025 Russia would have amassed
“asymmetric weapons” in its arsenal for the attack. “The situation for
us today is comparably worse than half a century ago,” he said.
“The weakened economic potential in
Russia, the loss of the ‘spiritual core of what was the communist idea,’
and the lack of large-scale community allies in Europe such as the
Warsaw Pact, Russia simply cannot compete against the NATO and its
allies.” In December last year, the vocal military strategist told
Russian newspaper, Pravda.ru that there is a “developing standoff
between Russia and the West” and the US’s ultimate goal was to “destroy
Russia.” Mr. Sivkov accused American politicians of committing several
crimes including causing the deaths of 1,200,000 people in Iraq. He
believed the only way for the “American elite” to be held accountable
was for its military forces to be destroyed. “American politicians have
committed a variety of crimes. Will anyone be held accountable for those
crimes? What about the international law, the UN and other
organizations? Are they doing anything?” he asked. Mr. Sivkov told
Pravda that the idea of the US preparing for a serious war against
Russia using cruise missiles was plausible given that it had already
launched a thousand missiles in Yugoslavia and Iraq. –Sydney Morning Herald
