Russia has practiced delivering a retaliatory nuclear strike

[Blaine91555]

 Russia, according to the new military concept adopted by the parliament and approved by the president, can launch a nuclear strike on those countries whose weapons were used against Russian territory. This is a conceptual decision. That is, if a missile made in Germany, France, Britain or the USA flies to Russian territory, Russia can respond with a nuclear strike on the territory of these countries. This is the new Russian law.

The same was true during the Cold War, and that possibility has been true even after the Cold War until now. It's nothing new.

As always "MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) is what keeps it from happening. Russia lets the nukes fly, and Russia gets flattened. Do you think Putin is suicidal?

What's the use of having a weapon if you can't play with it and imagine using it for real? In fact, perhaps it would be irresponsible not to. Everyone needs to keep in practice, and make sure their equipment is ready at a moments notice.

...

It is posturing, yes, but it is also part of international relations, these "military games" and preparedness exercises. It evokes opportunity to frame a response. What would Putin like to hear?

It was a global policy of containment that worked until the Deep State went haywire. It immediately became reality((((

MAD

Mutually Assured Destruction

No one will get to use their highly irradiated mansion in Sochi, Martha’s Vineyard or anywhere else, and all the people who have no dog in this fight are straight up fucked.

Nuclear winter and irradiated wastelands. No drinkable water and nothing growing. It would be pretty much over everywhere.

Now what moron thinks they will come out ahead?

I shake my head at their stupidity and ignorance.

Привет! Я не питаю иллюзий насчет президентства Тампа. Он уже был президентом, и напряжение против России со стороны Украины только нарастало. Но ожидания есть. Но Россия готова к любому сценарию.

Si.

Donald Trump es un hombre que sabe como hacer las cosas. Hace saber que puede manejar perfectamente a Vladamir Putin. Incluso afirma haber dicho que derribaria el colorido edificio con todas las torres de cebolla. No se si todo eso es cierto, porque parece mas bien que realmente quiere montar a caballo sin camisa con su mejor amigo Vlad.

Parece que en su cabeza esta intentando jugar a seguir el ritmo. Como comparar activos. Tamaños de yates. Desde Mar-a-Lago hasta el castillo de Putin en el Mar Negro... Todo esta muy relacionado con el ego. Muy malo.

El planeta puede estar jodido.

Me gustaria poder simplemente hablar en espanol, pero tenemos aqui un requisito de usar el ingles.  No es prejuicio, por favor usen ingles de aqui en adelante.

I appreciate a good polyglot, but we need to post in English... 

Besides, it's important for all of us to understand the conversation... 

Thanks

I saw something about onions! And horses!

Hey, and since when did we start trusting the media? Or politicians?

[IdeomotorPrisoner]

Lol.

I will only post in English. I just felt making me translate Russian to English should be responded to by making them translate from Spanish, because it's the only other language I know.

Patriotic Translation:

Yes.

Donald Trump is a man who knows how to get things done. He makes it known that he can handle Vladamir Putin perfectly. He even claims to have said he would take down the colorful building with all the onion towers. I don't know if all that is true, because it seems more like he really wants to ride a horse shirtless with his best friend Vlad.

It seems that in his head he is trying to play keep up. How to compare assets. Yacht sizes. From Mar-a-Lago to Putin's castle on the Black Sea... Everything is very related to the ego. Very bad.

The planet may be screwed.

Do you really thing Mr Trump will change anything, if elected? It seems obvious that Russia will eventually get to keep the eastern territories it already has, and UKUSA will continue to pump the meat-grinder until the inevitable civil war in what's left of Ukraine (which hasn't actually existed since 2014) falls into the proper configuration for our "European friends" best advantage.

Right? What's Don going to do? Posture and take credit? Well, sure, but anything else?

At this point I don’t think that it’s in any “politician’s” hands. Including DJT.

This between whoever TPTB here and TPTB there. You and I don’t mean a pinch of raccoon shit to them. Perhaps DJT can make a difference in the lives of US citizens, costs of food, fuel and living, but I believe the die is cast, and we the people of earth are going to pay the piper.

I’m sorry that I’m being such a bummer, but this conflict has been coming for a long time.

The Soviet had a plan to take down the west. It seems to be working. The Chinese communists have been playing a long game as well. Anyone who thinks that DJT (and I like him) is going to be some sort of savior, imho , are wrong. Just as wrong as voting for Harris.

Or, like my friend Maxmars says, “there really won’t be any observable change”, forgive me Max if I misrepresented you.

The East/West thing has been happening forever.
Religion, culture, skin colour, all of it.

Be prepared, stay close, treat each other with kindness, ( until you can’t), and move forward. Learn some outdoor skills and what you can eat from Mother Nature.

Idk anymore than the rest of you, I’m as worried as the next, but… I have hope, and I have faith in you all that we as a human race can get through this.

Hello, my friend. Of course, no one wants to use nuclear weapons. But the new Russian nuclear concept allows for their use in response to NATO using missiles against Russia by Ukraine. This already exists and is ready for use. This is reality. As soon as Ukraine launches missiles on Russian territory, there will be a nuclear response against the countries that produce these missiles. No one wants this. But if this happens, NATO countries must know about the response.
This is war, it happens....

So then the US can also do so since the russians were supplying weapons to our adversaries correct?
