Nuclear War Remains Unlikely, But NATO-Russia Network War Escalates

* Starts 01:46 *

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer took his entire cabinet to Washington last week for a pow-wow with their American war allies to plead his case for allowing Ukraine to use long-range precision weapons to target Russian military bases and missile launch sites deep within Russia. Putin said Russia will 'respond in kind' and, although no one knows what that means, the Anglo-Americans are confident the Russian president is bluffing.

This week on NewsReal, Joe & Niall explain, again, that nuclear exchange isn't in play here; the two sides are indeed escalating, but under the threshold of M.A.D., and against the clock of Ukrainian statehood collapsing into its own footprint. Anyway, nothing major is likely to happen before the US election.

Speaking of which, what on Earth is all this post-debate nonsense between Trump and Harris supporters about Haitian immigrants sacrificing people's pets? As Joe dives into the voodoo, Niall brings up the NYT's election prediction: it's going to take 'days' to count all the votes, 'naturally', so the chances of Kamala not 'winning' are shrinking by the day...
