The Atlantic Council: The Marketing Arm of the Military/Security Complex

• Paul Craig Roberts

The sales pitch was written by arms salesmen Richard Shirreff, a partner at Strategia Worldwide Ltd., and Maciej Olex-Szczytowski, a "business adviser specializing in defense."

The sales pitch is titled "Arming For Deterrence." The Kremlin is unpredictable, say the arms salesmen, and could at any moment decide to attack Poland. However the Russian regime "respects a show of force" and would back down if Poland has a sufficient inventory of US weapons.

The sales pitch encourages Poland to take many aggressive and dangerous steps toward Russia, such as targeting Russia cities and facilities including RT. But before provoking the Bear like this, Poland needs "to join the tactical nuclear capability scheme within NATO, so enabling its F-16s to be carriers of tactical nuclear ordnance."
