Is escalation and WW3 postponed until after election?

 LONG RANGE MISSILES & ATTACKS ON IRAN ON HOLD?

WILL ELECTION CHANGE U.S. FOREIGN POLICY?



With only 3 weeks until the election we may see a pause in the escalation of military action by both Ukraine and Israel. In Ukraine there has not as yet been any long range missiles fired into Russia, but we hear the usual propaganda from ex generals and Neocons that it is still on the table. Israel's promised major attack on Iran has not as yet materialized, it may be that the leadership in the U.S. has instructed both to cool their activities until after the election.

After the election, they will have 3 months in power, no matter who wins the election, and it may be their last opportunity to escalate these conflicts. If Harris wins, they will be assured of 4 more years to engage in their present policies. If Trump should win it will offer an opportunity to sow as much chaos around the world as possible to lay WW3 on his table. 

Either way, we can expect more chaos and a heightened risk of WW3 as soon as the election is concluded.

Ukraine is being decimated every day and the Ukraine project is destined to end in defeat unless the rules are changed to make Russia pay a heavier price. The problem is that Russia has seriously warned the west that Russia will respond with force against any country whose long range missiles are used against their country. This escalation will lead to war with NATO and a WW3 situation.

As for Israel, Iran has also warned that if Israel targets is nuclear or oil infrastructure they will be at all out war. Iran does have the capacity to seriously damage every inch of Israel and may actually have nuclear weapons. Israel would be tempted to use nuclear weapons if Iran should put their existence in jeopardy. Some in Israel have been itching to strike Iran's nuclear facilities and this has also been encouraged by many in the U.S.. Any such strike will not end Iran from securing nuclear weapons, but actually enhance that possibility. Iran could have produced nuclear weapons, but there are internal conflicts against doing so. A major attack by Israel will most likely end that debate in Iran.

In any event, it is likely that escalation will slow in the next 3 weeks, but after the election may be a very dangerous time. The present shapers of the U.S. foreign policy will not be overcome without a serious fight both internally and around the world. It will be a time of great danger to everyone.
