Double Deception: Russia is Tricking Us in Two Ways

Russia ended the Cold War,  
And to "prove" its sincerity
It also gave up Eastern Europe.  
Plus,the Soviet Union split up!  
 
The Kremlin did all that  
Just to get us to disarm,  
"Now that the Soviet threat is gone."  
(That's the first of two deceptions.)  
 
And we have done just that - disarm!
Just as the Kremlin hoped we would.  
For we have  given up 2/3 of our "Boomer" submarines.
(We had 39 under Ronald Reagan,
Now we are down to just 12 Boomer subs!)  

Our subs were the only part of our Triad,  
Our retaliatory nuclear arsenal,  
That is invulnerable to a Russian "First Strike."  
 
Our retaliatory arsenal is made up of 3 parts:  
(1)ICBMs, (2)Bombers, (3)Submarines.  
But #1 and #2 can be destroyed  
Before we can launch them.  
So, all we can really count on,  
All we can actually retaliate with,  
Is the missiles on our submarines.  
 
So when we gave up 2/3 of our subs  
We were actually surrendering 2/3  
of ALL of our retaliatory arsenal!  
 
THE SECOND DECEPTION is this:  
Russia has built a nation-wide ABM system.  
ABMs are Anti-Ballistic Missiles.  
Our spy satellites witnessed  
The testing of those ABMs.  
Russia would send a warhead across Siberia,  
Then an ABM was fired to shoot it down.  
Each time the ABM failed - failed -  
To intercept the targeted warhead.  
 
So our CIA has concluded that  
Russia's ABMs are no good, worthless.  
THAT IS THE DECEPTION I am talking about.  
For the tests were rigged, DESIGNED TO FAIL,  
to make it look like the ABMs are no good!  
 
This way Russia gets to build 2600 ABMs,  
enough to intercept 1300 incoming warheads,  
Without America recognizing that capability!  
So when we reduce the number of warheads  
we have to just 1,100  
(anything FEWER than 1,300,)  
We will, in effect, have ZERO warheads,  
No retaliatory arsenal at all!  
For our birdbrain government  
Doesn't take into consideration  
The ability of Russia's ABM system  
To intercept 1,300 warheads!
 
Right now we still have 8 subs at sea,  
with 167 warheads per sub,
For a total of 1,336 warheads.
But due to the SEQUESTRATION,
Or just to counter emergency spending  
on conventional weapons,
We will cut back to just 6 subs at sea!
That will mean 2 X 167 fewer warheads!
We will fall BELOW 1,300 warheads  
on the missiles on our subs
FOR THE FIRST TIME!
 
At that point Russia  
can hit us with impunity,
For we will retaliate  
with fewer warheads than  
Russia can shoot down!
 
If you are not sickened
By what i have just said,
you don't grasp the gravity
Of the situation.  
 
Just think about this:
The Bible says Judgment Day will be by fire.
And nuclear war would be just that:FIRE!
