Chapter 839: Tough Bush

The CIA's discovery poured cold water on everyone, and brought them a deep sense of fear and powerlessness.

The Soviets announced the Star Wars plan in a high-profile manner last year. Originally, the United States attached great importance to this plan. However, with the economic downturn in the United States, this plan has almost been shelved indefinitely. After all, the United States needs money for too many things. Shale oil extraction requires investment, economic revitalization requires investment, and fighting wars also requires money!

But now, watching the progress of the Soviet Union, the United States knows that it has fallen far behind in the space competition! The Soviets announced in a high-profile manner that they would not use nuclear weapons first, but it turns out that they did not need to use them at all! The huge nuclear arsenals of the United States and the Soviet Union were to ensure that once a nuclear bomb exploded, they would destroy each other. Now, the Soviets no longer need to launch nuclear bombs from the surface of the earth, they can destroy American nuclear bombs in the air!

The United States has fallen seriously behind, and this backwardness even threatens the strategic security of the United States!

"In other words, the Soviet Union is now intimidating us. If we dare to launch a nuclear bomb at Argentina, the Soviet Union will intercept us from space?" At this time, there was a ferocious look on Bush Sr.'s face.

"Yes, Mr. President," Casey said, "the Soviets are confident."

"If that's the case, then what are we waiting for!" Bush Sr.'s face was extremely gloomy: "Why don't we just launch a nuclear bomb now to destroy Argentina and see if Argentina's newly recognized father, the Soviet Union, can protect them!"

The new Soviet father! This sentence came out of Bush's mouth with great hatred. In the past, Argentina was a traditional ally of the United States, but now? Argentina did not listen to the United States, fought a war with the United States, and even defected to the Soviet Union!

Argentina has reached an agreement with the Soviet Union to give the port on the Falkland Islands to the Soviet Navy as their base! This is a thorn, a thorn that the United States absolutely cannot tolerate!

At the same time, the United States has no other choice now. The United States originally deployed six aircraft carriers aggressively. Now, although these aircraft carriers are gathering towards the war zone in the Falkland Islands, they are blocked by Congress, have funding problems, and are threatened by Soviet anti-ship ballistic missiles. These aircraft carriers can no longer achieve their original goals.

What else can the United States do? Engage in a war of words with the Soviet Union, condemning the Soviet Union for exporting ballistic missiles to Argentina? This will not work at all. Even if the United States knows that the Soviets are operating these ballistic missiles, even if the United States knows that Soviet satellites are cooperating to search for the location of anti-ship ballistic missiles, what can the United States do? Declare war on the Soviet Union? Start World War III?

Judging from this trend, I'm afraid there are many countries in Western Europe that have second thoughts! This war can't be fought at all! In particular, Congress will never agree to the United States doing this.

War! As a veteran of World War II, Bush Sr. is not afraid of war at all. Moreover, although he is very angry now, he has not lost his mind.

The current situation in the United States is unsolvable.

If the United States' national strength is strengthened, its military strength will be greatly increased. Why would the congressmen have to discuss for a long time just to put together a few aircraft carrier formations? The weakening of the US military strength has made it impossible for the US to fight for its own national interests, first in the Far East, then in the Middle East. If these places were still firmly in the hands of the United States, why would the United States fall to the current state?

Now, what should the United States choose? In Bush's view, it must be tough and must go to war! Only through a war can the United States win respect! And this war must be a nuclear war!

The United States' huge nuclear arsenal is used to serve American interests. Now, American interests have suffered great losses, and only nuclear weapons can turn the situation around!

As for the Soviet Union's awesome weapons, are they really that amazing? We will know after the war! Anyway, we are only fighting Argentina now, not directly confronting the Soviet Union, so how can it trigger a world war?

Even if it is triggered, so what? Through war, the United States may be able to stand up again, but if there is no war, the decline of the United States is inevitable!

Now, if they can’t even beat Argentina, how can Europe be convinced?

Moreover, all the crises facing the country now can be resolved through a war! Isn't there an example just now? Galtieri's military government has made the domestic situation chaotic and the economy a mess. As a result, a war has established Galtieri's image in the hearts of the Argentine people. He has become a hero of Argentina!

The United States can still unify the people through a war! Only in this way can the current crisis be resolved!

This is what the tough old Bush thought in his heart, but not everyone supported his idea.

For example, after hearing what Bush said, Secretary of State George immediately expressed his opposition: "No, although we are politicians, we must not hijack our country, initiate a war, and let our country, or even the world, fall into chaos. All of us will become sinners in history! Even if we temporarily survive the crisis now, we will be nailed to the shame of future generations!"

Kidnapping our country! George's words were too much, but they were in line with the reality. Now, if the United States really launched a nuclear attack, if the Soviets really had the technology of this space laser weapon, then the nuclear radiation would cover the entire United States! This is simply betting on the United States itself! Bush Sr. is simply a madman, a warmongerer! I absolutely cannot agree with such an idea!

"If we don't do this, we will be even more sinners of the United States!" Bush Sr.'s voice also began to roar: "If we compromise, then the decline of the United States will be inevitable!"

Seeing that his staff were about to quarrel, Reagan said nothing and helplessly lit a cigar. He knew that the United States had really come to the most difficult decision this time, and no matter what choice it made, it would be wrong!

Time passed little by little, and the sky soon became bright.

The state of the country has nothing to do with ordinary people. Those are the politicians' business, and life must go on. When the morning sun covers the earth, the American people also start their day's work, and the streets are full of people in a hurry.
