A ‘sure’ thing: more proof US nukes are coming to Britain -
CndukAug 30, 2023
The US Air Force (USAF) has reportedly received $50M in funding for the construction of a project in Suffolk, England, that experts have claimed could lead to the return of US nuclear weapons in the UK for the first time in over 15 years.
According to documents, a 144 bunk dormitory is to be built between June 2024 and February 2026, stated as necessary due to an increase in personnel "as the result of a potential surety mission."
It's clear that Lakenheath is secretly once again becoming a tool in the US' nuclear war machine. The decision by the UK to allow this to happen is both dangerous and irresponsible, and the government should officially refuse to host America's potentially world-ending weapons. This move will senselessly increase tensions in Europe and heighten the prospects of a nuclear confrontation.
The US and the UK are rebuilding their alliance, which was damaged by the UK's decision to leave the European Union in 2016. Despite this, its practical military relationship has remained unchanged. However, even closer cooperation will be required in the future, and both Washington and London must increase resource commitments to defense and security in light of the looming shadow of rising international threats.
There's a 32% chance that a nuclear weapon will be detonated as an act of war by 2050, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
