Experts Say War With Russia Was Imminent “66 Times in Last 18 Months”

For many, the Cold War tensions with Russia had become a distant memory… until, of course, NATO and Russia squared off over the Ukraine issue.

Now, American-backed NATO forces have been brought back to the brink of World War III — an astounding 66 TIMES — just in the last year and a half.

WAR between Russia and Nato forces has been imminent a terrifying 66 times over the last 18 months, according to experts.

As Americans face the potential of WW3, President Obama, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, has done relatively little to address the issue, or to calm the flames threatening to engulf the planet. Instead, action from the West has been proxied through NATO and through the puppet leader in Kiev.
