Watch: This Is Why Russia Can’t Attack America: New Weapon Has “Near-Instantaneous Lethality”

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Over the last several weeks we have witnessed a complete collapse of the Russian economy, stock markets and monetary system. It is a result of Western sanctions for Russia’s refusal to retreat from its newly annexed territory of Crimea. And though Russia has pounded its chest with military protrusions into Western airspace, including the west coast of the United States, there is a distinct reason for why Vladimir Putin can’t pull the trigger on any sort of military engagement, at least not yet.

In his Strategic Relocation documentary World Affairs analyst Joel Skousen suggested that, while a World War III scenario is an event that is likely to take place in the foreseeable future, Russia and China are hesitant about any sort of military conflict with the United States because of the West’s top secret, advanced military technologies.

One such technology that’s not so secret any more but was recently released to the public is the LaWS (Laser Weapon System). It’s a system so advanced that the military says it can lock on to and engage targets with near-instantaneous lethality.

“Laser weapons are powerful, affordable and will play a vital role in the future of naval combat operations,” Rear Adm. Matthew L. Klunder, chief of naval research, said in a statement Wednesday. “We ran this particular weapon, a prototype, through some extremely tough paces, and it locked on and destroyed the targets we designated with near-instantaneous lethality.” (Yahoo)

As you’ll see in the video below, the system is capable of tracking moving targets, including aircraft, and literally blowing them out of the sky at the speed of light.

Granted, both Russia and China are familiar with this particular technology, the U.S. has spent trillions of dollars on military research over the last two decades. What’s most curious is that not only do the Russians and Chinese not know what all this money was spent on, but neither do 99.999% of Americans, as evidenced by a Congressional hearing held on September 10th, 2001.

Yes, Defense Secretary  Donald Rumsfeld gave that statement just one day before the terrorist attacks of 2001, and according to some researchers the accounting records for that $2.3 trillion were destroyed when the Pentagon was hit (officially, of course, Rumsfeld misspoke and the missing money was the result of an accounting error of some sort).

We can be fairly certain that Putin is well aware of these massive military investments, and as Joel Skousen suggested, the Russians (and Chinese) have no idea what kind of technology we may have cooked up with that kind of money.

The Laser Weapon Systems mentioned above are just the tip of the iceberg and the video was obviously released as a propaganda tool in response to Russia’s own propaganda that included airspace incursions and threats of nuclear war. But the United States, despite its shortcomings, still has the most advanced military systems in the world.

In fact, just a couple of weeks ago, after the Russians had poked and prodded the west with veiled threats of war, residents in London and New York reported hearing loud booms and/or rumblings in the middle of the night. No official story for this has been released, but some researchers suggest the mysterious sounds were the work of the top secret supersonic Aurora project, which is capable of traveling at over six times the speed of sound. The fact that people on both sides of the U.S. military’s Atlantic testing areas heard the sounds suggests that it could have been Aurora, and that it was yet another show of military force to warn Russia that, despite their economic malaise, they have no possibility of winning a military engagement.

The Russians and the Chinese probably know this and this is why both countries are spending more money on military technology than anything else. That and they are hacking U.S. military networks and military industrial complex servers in an effort to steal as much information as they can to fast track their own military programs.

Overall, the U.S. is hemorrhaging economic espionage to the tune of $250 billion.

“This is a national, long-term strategic threat to the United States of America.”

War is coming to the world. Russia will not stand idly by as their entire way of life is destroyed through economic means. But they are not ready for a widespread conflagration right now.

Joel Skousen has suggested that by around 2020 – 2023 they will be.

It is then that we will see what Uncle Sam has been up twenty floors below the surface at remote military installations like Area 51.

        Amazing how wonderful we (and other nations on Earth) are at building things to destroy stuff… we can only imagine what we might be accomplishing if all that $$$ was put into HUMANITY and CREATIVITY…. We can only imagine that one day this will all come back and blow up in our faces, instantly lethal…will ‘instant karma’ one day soon come to Amerikkka and all the other warmongering nations of our planet Earth?

        • Ret. Marine

          Although I understand your concerns, it is the very fact that we have achieved this amount of military technology to the point that we are still the freest of all nations, just think of what the world would look like if we did not invest in these technologies to protect our selves and the Nation against the worlds aggressors. The world as a whole is under and ruled mainly by despots who would, if they had the brain power to do so, would have already also spend this kind of money to destroys us if they thought they’d get away with it, Yeah think about that for a moment, and suddenly your concerns, although good in nature, don’t seem to warrant any priorities at this point in time or our history. As an after thought, I suspect if these types of technologies were to be applied to and for the good of civilizations, the world over, think of the good we, as a free people can bring to the world in the near future, if applied justly.

          Dear Ret, you need to get that cranium of yours removed from your back passage,that’s the biggest load of manure I have seen written here in a while, and that is saying something mr.marine !

    • Paul Rowlandson

      Russia has shown that it can jam the most sophisticated systems the US has to put out. Remember the ship in the Baltic Sea. Russia doesn’t want war because Putin and his government are sane while the US is run by sociopaths/psychopaths.

    • Anonymous

      This is a great weapon but if you have to have someone with a joy stick to take control of the weapon and aim it and push a button to fire it then it is as useless as our president… what or how would they react under intense pressure ? if the ship they are on was getting attacked from multiple sources do you really think the guy with the joystick is really going to be focused on what his job is especially if the ship is getting hit with bullets or worse , I think not.. Russia has some sophisticated weapons that we have not seen , Putin does not strike me as a president that is going to show his hand to early in the card game…

    • DTS & Associates

      Lasers are only good for ‘line of sight’ skirmishes. Can’t shoot over the curvature of the Earth.
      On the other hand, Russia’s Topel ‘nap of the earth’ missiles which travel at mach 15 are unstoppable.

      Have a nice day. :)

      • DOOMSDAY!

        COUNTER!

        RAIL GUN!

        I am sorry oh so NOT SMART PERSON!

        The rail gun can defeat them. It’s the ultimate solution against this threat!

        Seems someone FAILED at getting its info!

        HINT! HINT! Russia is also competing in making one! Guess why?

        • neanderthal

          You have been playing tanki online to long LOL. Railgun love it

        • DOOMSDAY!

          EUH WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

          The rail-gun is a real weapon that will be unveiled soon enough!

    • Mark

      You are very much mistaken, is not a short range weapon with joystick that will save or not an awkward position … like I said several times, Vladimir Putin is really a smart guy … He’s taking away to kick the ball to the goal indefensible. You will see… soon! : lol:

      Russia will attack U.S and invade Europe. Pray and repent of your sins. It is close. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az4dzdS79jU

      Remember the disabling of the USS Donald Cook by the Russians several months ago as reported by Veterans Today?

    • desertspeaks

      You must have missed the story of a russian plane fly over of one of the US state of the art ships and the ship shut down.. they couldn’t do a damn thing!

      that article, video and advertisements are so cleverly written and produced than can FOOL any body, the 2.3 trillion dollar missing from the Pentagon Budge, were used secretly for the construction of the DUMBs(Deep Under Ground Military Bases)for the protection of the ELITE from the POLE SHIFT Armageddon.

    • Anonymous

      I guess you didn’t here about what the Russians did to the USS Donald Cook on April12 2014. It shook the crew up so bad they all put in letters of resignations. All by one unarmed Su-24 fighter.

    • Pink Slime

      Yes, it seems a decade or more is needed, but SURPRISE ME!

    • kletus_ledbetter

      Your nutz, that toy will be of no use against an ICBM.

    • FromDeath 2Life

      Barry will let it happen.

    • Laser Guided Loogie

      I don’t know what sort of scary weapons the US may be hiding out at Area 51 (probably nothing) but the LWS isn’t going to scare anyone.

      It is a short range, underpowered system that is primarily suited for attacking slow, small, vulnerable targets like small boats or drones.

      Atmospheric scattering and water vapor keeps lasers from being effective in the atmosphere. Also, the power requirements for doing real damage are way higher than these systems can muster.

    • Danishsaxonblood

      Glad to $ee lars coming out to play😀

    • EyesWideOpen

      Could it be that US used this weapon on the Mylasian plane that vanished in thin air? It does appear that the plane just vaporized.

    • BeforeIN

      What the video shows it is kind of a Mickey Mouse toy. The laser cannot work on missiles bodies nor on the aircrafts, even less navy. As one can see the target is a petty little structure. It will take a long, long way to become a reliable weapon. Not to mention that on a foggy day, a rusted AK47 is far superior to it.
      Point nr 2: Russians started developing the laser weapons three decades before Americans even knew about. Russians do not brag about their military gadgets as once they are in the open, everybody would replicate them.
      Finally, there is a simple, easy and trivial way to counter any laser weapon. It is so simple that I wonder if those “designers” are not actually a bunch twits. I am a scientist and have the know how. I am not going to say it here; let them get drunk with water.

    • Johnson

      As ever we have the US interfering where they are not wanted but manoeuvring for solely their own grubby and greedy ends…no wonder they`re hated across the globe.

    • Anonymous

      What kind of morons would put that weapon right out in the open with all those unprotected cables? It looks very vulnerable to me and all it takes is a severed cable to render this thing a huge paperweight.

    • Safffff

      This is why I find beforeitsnews 90% bull, but that they warn you of to use your own logic. This person just likes to see his stuff published somewhere.
      This low powered laser would have little effect on a ceramic insulated rotating hypersonic missile. It would be useless against any water torpedo especially a super cavitational one. And only appears to blow up munitions in plain view but what if there stored in water barrels?

      Everything you hear in the Media is fabricated. Everything we know of this planet is lies. Until you understand the spiritual forces at work, you can never understand what’s really happening on this planet and it is imperative that we learn and show others. /awakening-start-here/2014/07/the-shocking-answer-to-everything-can-be-found-in-three-books-and-i-will-explain-why-138.html

    • Mymy

      So just attack when it rains or paint the missiles with aluminiumpaint

    • Louis

      According to researchers at Stanford University, one burp from the sun is able to create an EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) that could easily plunge the entire world into darkness by frying all of its electrical grids.

      Mother Nature trumps all man-made technologies, and she answers to the will of God.

      abolish the party system.

      Someone needs to google Russian scalar weapons! lmao

    • kuergun

      well what ever Tell me how a Russian plane flew over an American destroyer big blue flash and the destroyer was disabled in seconds and half the crew mentally affected any answers ?,, one small plane one very big ship ..!!
      The ship and mentally affected crew are in a dock in South Africa ….who ever wrote this is about American power is just an American old boy who thinks the USA is the best …!!

      Super as long as it isn’t raining and area 51 means close to nothing unless they have already mass produced this advanced stuff.
      Remember Germany was far far ahead of others at the start of WWII.
      In the words of Vietnam, stupid is as stupid does.

    • truthlovingsoul

    • Techy

      What a load of crap, Russia has not collapsed financially and with China as their comrades now they aren’t likely to follow the USA into financial ruin. The fact the USA has taken their demo-laser system out of the closet now, was done to try and scare off a Russian attack. If Russia was to release 50% of it’s nuclear weapons on the USA their laser would be of very little use. Russia would not likely use it’s bombers to deliver a initial strike, because their nuclear subs are closer to targets giving the USA too little time to sight in their lasers at low, fast missals. If planet-X don’t get you all first, there will be little left to fight with after it passes by. Even the USA has the resulting maps expected to show what remains after this break up due to plate shifts on our planet. All this war garbage is simply something to keep us worrying about war, instead of the real danger coming at earth from the south.

    • Den of the Chaldez

      Sorry, your story is bunk.

      This particular laser (your photo) was only recently tested and it was a prototype bolted to a dock for targeting system testing… On one boat and one drone uav. Only.

      The navy is fixin’ t bolt it to a ship for sea trials. It is not in service yt, and certainly not in numbers sufficiant to smoke 1700 or so icbms incomming from Vlad, not to mention the cruise missiles or anything that China could launch.

    • gourmet monster

      A giant laser, which Russia and China probably already have.

    • HIDDENTEXTOR

      whatever “weapons” amerka has and has been using since 2003 (including the d.e.f which just left melted rubber on the ground where a bus had been) – do not fool yourself into thinking Russia “cant” do anything.
      Russia WON’T and there is the difference.

      Russia has a “tool” which simply STOPS the d.e.w. of the amerikans, and the amerikans know it.

    • VirusGuard

      Well looks to me like gas was placed on the boat to explode because a lazer bean burns and at only 10kw its not a lot of power and the drone shown in the vid did not seem to get shot down before the video ended.

      Russia will like to build one too so that it can learn how to defend against these lazers when building the worlds leading missile system.

      I don’t think this would work at night because a radar signiture would not be accurate enough to keep the beam on the same part of the object that is being shoot down.

    • FirebrandOne

      Military people dont seem to understand that these wars are orchestrated by the top of the pyramid people, they (the military) go out to fight other people who they have no quarrell with because their boss told them to.

      How about in future rather than incurring huge loss of life in wars and massive financial cost we could just let our leaders go into combat, each well armed and let that decide the winner.
      I’m serious about this

    • franklin

      This is bull, they unveiled this years ago and said it was so great in test, yet has not been proven in combat. These asses want the public to believe they can stand up to Russia so when the owners say go the people will be behind them. The people need to ask the government to do idiot things so the fault is their own, Russia spends less than a fourth on military than the states but it is not out destabilizing every country with oil, plus it only costs a dollar for a military hammer and not fifty. If you want to cut back on the war budget, let’s just send Obama in first to every country that he desires and leader to leader can duke it out.

    • Arte Vespule

      I find it fascinating that they run the billion dollar weapon system with what looks like an Xbox controller…..
