I’m nervous of surviving one and ending up in some wild Mad Max type post-nuclear hell. If there is going to be one, I hope Mad Vlad drops it right on my head! Get it done with quickly.

But honestly people, it’s all about Project 2030, get the populace scared. The next thing in line is food shortages. Then by 2030 you’ll own nothing but never been happier. It’s all going to plan ..

Not so sure about that, anything less than the total defeat of Ukraine and the installation of a puppet government will be a defeat now. Putin has gone all in.

He is also on record as saying any world that doesn't include Russia is not worth saving and should be destroyed.

I’m not sure he’ll use a Nuclear weapon, but if he does, it’ll be a tactical Nuke on Ukraine. He won’t risk a massive response.

If he goes full on Mad Vlad, I’m sure the Russian Military Command will intervene. Even they don’t want their kids vaporised in an unnecessary zero sum lose/lose endgame at the whim of a crackpot.

He will need to look over his shoulders, as the real enemy is the people he's killed at home, with his handling over the Kursk submarine disaster, that took place 4 months into his dictatorship.

I think we focus on what we can do ourselves, if anything. In the article she suggests cutting ties with Russian financial interests, like with South Africa and apartheid. I've seen suggestions to buy digital products from Ukrainian sellers (like on Etsy) and Tim Snyder on Substack has lists of resources to help Ukraine.

And if you spot a Russian bot on social media, just block them.

The most worrying and potentially apocalyptic scenario is if a missile or thermobaric bomb were to hit the new dome over the crumbling Chernobyl sarcophagus and release the remainder of the dead core into the atmosphere.

That is more likely to happen than a tactical nuclear missile war, at l_ast at present.

MAD, mutually assured destruction is probably closer now than at any time since the Cuban missile crisis, sixty years ago; that was so decisively ended by JFK.

And parking their toys there within spitting distance of that elephant's foot, will be more valuble a shield than any human shield strategy.

Just think Goldeneye, the Black Knight, a certain missile that wouldn't self destruct and the quick thinking that saves they day.

The longer this goes on, the more damage Putin can do.

It’s a concern, I think he’s mad enough but I’m not worried at the moment. His attack on Ukraine hasn’t gone to plan, he expected to be able to roll his armour through the streets and have no resistance. He likely expected the Govt to flee. He’s trying to avoid humiliation. This looks like posturing.

His language to put them in high alert or a “special mode of combat duty” isn’t in the Russian military manuals. There’s no such “special mode”, regular, heightened, threat of war and full are the nuclear armaments readiness levels, according to a former Russian military officer.

"I doubt it will come to nuclear war, not even Putin is that dumb...I hope."

I wouldn't count your chickens..

He is a Russian mafia leader, not a president of a democratic Country, he has little respect for human life other than those close to him. I like many hope it won't come to it.

He murders people who cross him, poisoned and irradiated his enemies abroad.

Should it come, nothing on Earth could stop it, but until then, carry on, respect others and let's hope someone in Russia will do what Russians do best - revolt by force.

I would not be surprised if Nukes are tactically used, whether as warning shots over the sea or in lower population areas to show he's willing to use them.

A normal rational person would not go that far, but Putin is not rational. He isn't dumb but has held deep hatred for what happen to USSR in 1991 and the West's part in it.

Maybe it's the plan, all or nothing with the West. Murder-Suicide could be his final act. It happens.

He would need the military to be equally as crackpot to succeed. He alone can’t make it happen.

If he hovers his finger over that red button without any credible military threat to his country then I can’t for the life me see the military letting him literally destroy humanity based on a madman’s delusions.

Anyway, who fancies a fuck?

And to think, the USA planned to build nuclear engines for aircraft in the 60s.

Seems Putin thought they were a good idea as he has nuclear engined nuclear cruise missles. It won't be in your book but most of his top nuclear weapon scientists were killed during an accident with them

The Nyonoksa radiation accident, Arkhangelsk explosion or Nyonoksa explosion occurred on 8 August 2019 near Nyonoksa. The were testing an unlimited range missle.

Definitely not gonna happen. Putin is just saying it in an attempt to unnerve and scare the west, he wouldnt risk total annihilation of his own country.

Even if it got to the point where he actually considered using nukes for real his own party would turn on him. All those russian oligarchs with all their global investments would lose everything, not to mention the rest of his countrymen would rather stay alive than join the west in complete annihilation

Haha, do you still believe in such a thing as a Demcratic country whose leaders care about human lives? No one other than so called "Democratic countries who fight for human rights, women's rights ect" who have caused and still counting the biggest refugee crisis in human history and the death of 10's of millions of innocent children and women in the MENA since the fall of the USSR. The human tragedy of the past 32 year war on a certain faith followers disguised under the name of war on terror is no less than the WW2.

Oh yes he is. Putin said 2 years ago that he would rather see the world obliterated than Russia defeated. And interesting article on Sunday in the Times which suggested that he has been on a paranoid diet of anti-covid steroids the last 2 years which may be having effects on his mental disposition.

"Definitely not gonna happen. Putin is just saying it in an attempt to unnerve and scare the west, he wouldnt risk total annihilation of his own country.

Even if it got to the point where he actually considered using nukes for real his own party would turn on him. All those russian oligarchs with all their global investments would lose everything, not to mention the rest of his countrymen would rather stay alive than join the west in complete annihilation"

Exactly this. Notwithstanding the fact that it needs more than one finger on buttons to launch a nuclear missile, we'd have been in much more danger of the balloon going up when that clueless, megalomaniacal, twat Trump was pretending to be a president.

Maybe that's why Putin has kept his powder dry till now, who knows?

Putin doesn't want a nuclear war because he knows no one wins. Plus, as has been said, this isn't Soviet Russia. The oligarchy have their money and investments scattered all around the world and Putin has to take account of that.

Nervous, yes, but I don't think it will come to that. I don't know to what extent Putin has actually lost his marbles and how much individual power he has to launch. I can't rule out that he would do it but I think he principally wants power and money, and he knows he would lose both if he tried it.

Anonymous are hacking Russian websites. People are leaving 'reviews' on TripAdvisor etc for restaurants/ shops in Russia, but the reviews are statements to let Russians know what is really happening in Ukraine. Gives me some hope.

When I was at school - not far from a Ground Zero target near Manchester. We regularly did drills for a 3 minute warning. After watching Threads, rather than tipping the tables, taping the windows to stop shattering and white sheets over to block the flash, we refused to partake in the drills and instead went to sit in the open fields we played football on. It wasn't worth trying to survive and if hit by the light, it would be over before your brain even registered it.

We even got sanctioned for not complying!!

I grew up from the age of 8 until leaving school in fear of oblivion. Then you leave school with topic if conversations being what if Russia Nukes us.

I wrongly, thought all that shit was behind us in 1991 when the Wall came down and the USSR was dissolved.

Little did I know at the time that a paranoid prick who was in Berlin that night working for the KGB, would come back to haunt me again today.

According to an online paper called DAWN, dated 10 September 2004...

"Chechens put $20m bounty on Putin's head

MOSCOW, Sept 9: Chechen rebels placed a 20 million dollar bounty on Thursday on the head of President Vladimir Putin in a tit-for-tat response to Moscow's decision to place a 10 million dollar price tag on two top guerrilla commanders.

The rebel Internet site Kavkazcenter accused Putin of waging a "criminal war" and "murdering hundreds of thousands of peaceful civilians on the territory of Chechnya, including tens of thousands of children."

It also accused Putin of overseeing a military that kidnäps civilians, and of ruining dozens of Chechen cities. On Wednesday, Russia offered 10 million dollars to anyone who can lead them to Shamil Basayev and Aslan Maskhadov, rebel commanders whom Moscow accuses of organizing the Beslan school hostage crisis that killed at l_ast 336 people, half of them children.

No one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack. Russia views all rebels as terrorists and refuses to hold negotiations with the more moderate Chechens, relying instead on its own government that it installed in controversial elections that were condemned by the west as flawed. -AFP"

If he get holds of Ukraine, he will not be satisfied, the other ex Soviet states will be his next target.

The damage they did to Chechnya, they may as well had nuked it, as there was nothing left of the cities they'd flattened..

I personally believe it ain't stopping at Ukraine, it will go onto every region of Eastern Europe where ethnic Russia speakers demand reunification of the USSR.

The whole of Europe is infested with Separatist ideology and Putin is encouraging them to rise up in order for his 'peacekeepers' can move in.

It will not end here and just like with Hitler, there will come a time, we can longer stand back with all the risks that entails.

Only two weeks ago, there were people here claiming hysteria and fake news, all which has since shown to be inaccurate.

As for not nuking anyone in his way and his own children and peoples, it's time to wake up and realise that if Putin wants, Putin gets at whatever cost.

And no, I certainly don't want it, but the reality is thar we are on the edge of no return.

Served in 1 BR Corps in the mid 70s and our role alongside other NATO allies was to try and hold up the 3rd USSR shock army, estimates were about 1 million of them who if they went offensive would pretty much in 48 hours either have destroyed us before the reserves from USA, Canada etc got into theatre..

The only way we would have slowed them was theatre nuclear weapons, Lance missile etc..

Which we knew would get a similar response, then we would react then they would which would mean total annihilation..

Both sides knew what the potential was which kept the status quo so that's what kept the peace and history led to the fall of the Berlin wall and the end of the USSR..

We're now in a sort of opposite scenario where NATO outnumbers the Russian federation by 9 or 10 to 1 in forces and Putin knows what the response will be if he triggers article 5, the people who prop him up also know it and won't in my opinion let it get to that..

From a famous website. Pronounced Weekeepeeddeeya

Before January 2020, the two tied-for-lowest points for the Doomsday Clock were in 1953, when the Clock was set to two minutes until midnight after the U.S. and the Soviet Union began testing hydrogen bombs, and in 2018, following the failure of world leaders to address tensions relating to nuclear weapons and climate change issues. In other years, the Clock's time has fluctuated from 17 minutes in 1991 to 2+1/2 minutes in 2017.[10][17] Discussing the change to 2+1/2 minutes in 2017, the first use of a fraction in the Clock's history, Krauss, one of the scientists from the Bulletin, warned that political leaders must make decisions based on facts, and those facts "must be taken into account if the future of humanity is to be preserved."[15] In an announcement from the Bulletin about the status of the Clock, they went as far to call for action from "wise" public officials and "wise" citizens to make an attempt to steer human life away from catastrophe while humans still can.[10]

On January 24, 2018, scientists moved the clock to two minutes to midnight, based on threats greatest in the nuclear realm. The scientists said, of recent moves by North Korea under Kim Jong-Un and the administration of Donald Trump in the US: "Hyperbolic rhetoric and provocative actions by both sides have increased the possibility of nuclear war by accident or miscalculation".[17]

The clock was left unchanged in 2019 due to the twin threats of nuclear weapons and climate change, and the problem of those threats being "exacerbated this past year by the increased use of information warfare to undermine democracy around the world, amplifying risk from these and other threats and putting the future of civilization in extraordinary danger."[4]

On January 23, 2020, the Clock was moved further, to 100 seconds (1 minute 40 seconds) before midnight, meaning that the Clock's status today is the closest to midnight since the Clock's start in 1947. The Bulletin's executive chairman, Jerry Brown, said "the dangerous rivalry and hostility among the superpowers increases the likelihood of nuclear blunder... Climate change just compounds the crisis".[5]

"I believe there only to be a satanic one ??"

Go on, enlighten us about the satanic one and all this jazz with Putin. Is he a fully paid up, card carrying cabal member or is he the one doing the exorcism?

"Has anyone on this thread heard of the CABAL??

The original CABAL? Where the word came from in the first place? Were they not the initials of the royal society members who formed "the committee to raise water by fire"? Who backed Thomas Newcomen and started the industrial revolution?

talk geeky to me"

You love it.

"The Russian threats of nuclear war are getting more explicit.

Putin has miscalculated and is acting like a cornered dog.

He might have found a horde of simps in the west who swallow his bullshit, but not so much given actual war."

I don't think it will happen due to other superpowers having nukes too.

It maybe a possibility that if Russia doesn't succeed with invading and controlling Ukraine he might use a tactical nuclear warhead which have small yields.

But if you look back over the last 20 years. Russia has successfully invaded old USSR countries. Georgia, Crimera.

It would surprise me if he went after other ussr countries

No I'm sure kicking them out of eurovision and banning the sale of Russian dolls from 2023 and calling him a very naughty boy will stop him in his tracks.

The worlds being quite tactile against him. Big companies and financial sectors are cutting ties with russia bp, shell to name afew, gas/oil is all russia really have which is mega... if you have the worlds support. However with the world cutting ties ultimately financially is the only way of cracking him. I dont think nukes will come into it but financially he will break imo.

I'm not sure sanctions will scratch the surface. Look at the market he has right on his doorstep.... China will take all the gas and oil he's got just to fuck up the west. China will be into Nepal or Taiwan next...

Well of course. And if I were lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Moldova etc I'd be more than a little anxious who will be next.

Moldova maybe. The others would have serious repercussions

This is a scary thought.

What happens if Putin sets off a tactical nuke in Russia, then blames another country to justify him launching nukes.

Bit far fetched I know, but you never know what he is going to do next.

Doesn't make any sense why China would want to fuck up the West it's how they make their money.

China has more billionaire's than any other country.

This is not due to their thrifty nature it's down to exporting low cost goods worldwide, and now they have a taste for it why would they want it to end.

Money is the king not politics and if China side's with Russia it stands too lose just as much as anyone.

Before nuclear warheads are deployed the use of dirty bombs, then chemical weapons and later lethal biological means will be used to subdue the enemy, and its citizens.

The value of life in the former soviet union is negligible; Putin is an archetypal product of a profoundly callous system.

He epitomises the Dark Triad of psychopathy, malignant narcissism and machiavellianism; a lethal combination, but one that is a sine qua non for a Russian political leader.

I don't think it's worth getting myself stressed about it unless it happens. I've spent enough of the past few years stressed.

Not pushing humanity aside but is anyone worried about the far right wing of Ukrainian society that’s been heavily reported over the past few years will flood into those taking in refugees? It’s definitely a concern amongst some at Whitechapel.

An authoritarian alliance is definitely not something to be sneezed at. I'm sure both Russia and China would want to capitalise upon destabilisation in the west and shift the global order.

Probably why they are being careful about granting refugee visas.
