Putin will say anything to get his way, even the absurd. Sounds like Trump saying only violence in our capitol will save us.
A Russian naval base is defended by dolphins. It's not as unusual as it sounds I had no idea this was a thing. Sad they don't have lasers attached to their heads, though.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/putin-inching-towards-nukes-threatening-152000734.html Putin makes threat to nuke the world if he loses in Ukraine through his lap dog Lavrov the top diplomat if the Russian Federation. Lavrov admits Russia is losing in Ukraine and is being backed into a corner, of which there is only one recourse, thermonuclear war.
I honestly don’t think so? I think it would take too many people to agree with him to actually launch a nuclear weapon.
US Secretary of Defense Admits the Real Strategic Goal in Ukraine: Quagmire for Russia The strategic goal of "weakening Russia" is playing with fire—even nuclear fire—and to allow the war to go on indefinitely, or to escalate, at the expense of the Ukrainian people is cruel, dangerous, and unacceptable. The Sec. of Defense Just Admitted It!
I kinda feel like I need to have half of my brain removed so I could understand this rambling nonsensical word salad.
Supporting Ukraine via hardware and finances is far less of a danger (nuclear, or otherwise) than any other option. The only other option would be forcing Ukraine to give in to Russia and hoping they stop. Which they will not. The US is doing the right thing here, as long as Ukraine is willing to fight. This is the least risky action for the near term as well as the long term. This will cost Russian leadership the most support as well.
Given our nation’s history, I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re fighting Ukraine in ten or so years. Isn’t that America’s playbook? We get into conflicts with whoever we were funding 10 years prior so their insurgents can use our own weapons against us? If someone was into perpetual warfare with enriching military contractors as the outcome, this play would work nicely…
This is much more important right now than Roe vs Wade IMO. Hoping we don’t just move on to the next story.
Russia has transitioned to just demolishing the whole country. They aren't going to try and hold anything. They are going to carpet bomb every city until nobody wants to live there anymore. This is going to be tough... Russia is very good at this tactic...
Wouldn't be surprised if Putin gets to his last nerve and starts dropping nukes on Ukraine. He would rather no one have it, if he can't.
