1. 'Thanks.' Sleep with dogs, 'wake' with fleas.

[TheBlackAdder]

22. But I thought the Russian story is that it was an internal explosion on the ship, not an attack!

[PatSeg]

25. Ha, ha, ha!!!

[ramblin_dave]

2. The tweet from Julia Davis didn't seem that alarmist

She didn't say anything about nuclear weapons being implied...

4. The video did!

“Bomb them ONCE and that’s it!”

What do you think he meant by “once?” What kind of bomb do you only use once because one is all you need?

[H2O Man]

34. +1

[yardwork]

28. "Making it impossible for any world leaders to visit in the future..." sounds ominous.

The Russians have been bombing Kiev, including train stations, for weeks. They're urging something new.

[ecstatic]

3. Absolute madness!

Just poison putin already. The US has assassinated leaders for much less. One more time won't change anything.

[wanda4rafi]

9. So create absolute chaos in Russia and maybe someone worse takes over.

And don't tell me there is nobody worse, cause there always is.

[Buckeyeblue]

26. Yep. I think you take a known madman who has control over chaos

If we knew who would take over it might be different. But at this point it would be the first one out of the clown car. That might not be a smart risk to take.

[wanda4rafi]

33. He got advice from several of his aides to go into Ukraine.

So the chances are good the killing would continue. Until the Russian people decide on a change in government nothing will get better.

[Buckeyeblue]

38. But did they give him the advice because that is what he wanted?

And they hoped for the best. Or were they really that wrong? If they are that incompetent, it could be bad if they become in charge. Of course many of them have been replaced.

As I said before, Russia has been run into the ground under Putin's leadership.

[ribrepin]

5. Malcoln Nance is right a lot

This scares me

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. Yes. But what the hell can we do? Too late

[blue-wave]

6. The Russians who are all emotionally unhinged

about the Moskva seem to be, no they are, mentally challenged or deficient. Just start with the fact that it is the Russians who started this war and then list the terror and torture and genocide they have or are inflicting upon Ukrainians. The list goes on. The Russians wanted this war. They got it with all the consequences involved.

That said, Malcolm is correct. We should be concerned and cautious, but Russians or any other people should never be allowed to coerce the world to dominate it.

[TheBlackAdder]

23. World Leaders who verbally threatened Nuclear War like a child: Kim Jung-Un, Putin & Trump

.

Anything in common with them?

.

[yardwork]

30. Decades of Russian propaganda have them convinced that THEY are under attack.

Interviews with supposed Russians on the street indicate widespread belief that Ukraine was a threat to Russia. It's crazy but they believe it, just like the QAnon nuts in the US believe that liberals are a threat to their freedom.

Decades of propaganda, all over the world.

[Diablo del sol]

7. Was expecting this response from the small dicked POS

Issue is twofold.

They embarrassed the Russians

The big untold story seems to be the kleptocracy is about to be exposed. Spending billions on war apparatus, but due to multi layer skimming, delivering a bad product.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

17. Between rock and hard place. Ukraine can't concede & can't fight back

half ass. No help except on the edges. They can continue but so many will die. (As to your first point)

[vercetti2021]

8. He isn't gonna Nuke shit

It wouldn't surprise me if those old ass missiles from the 50s didn't work. I mean their tech is millions of years old it seems like

[Yorkie Mom]

11. Russia experts say this is not the case with their nukes.

[womanofthehills]

12. Putin has hypersonic missiles - used one a few weeks ago

They go 5 times the speed of sound so there are no anti- missile defense systems that can stop them. Hypersonic missiles can be directed to change directions while in flight.

[PortTack]

19. Prevailing winds would carry nuclear fallout over pootie's billion dollar pleasure palace complex

More than a bit of a deterrent for him to drop even a small nuclear weapon.

[ruet]

32. Russian Missile Forces are Like Their Own Branch of the Military.

I believe they receive the bulk of Russian military spending and have been continually "modernized". That being said; I agree, they aren't going to nuke shit.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

10. This is scary

[Laura PourMeADrink]

13. Unfortunately too late. Like a wise DUer posted about

a lot before the invasion... We had to stop them BEFORE. So sad.

[BannonsLiver]

37. Frankly that wise DUer sounds like many here - melodramatic

[blockquoteSo because we didn’t “stop them before”, whatever that is supposed to mean, the endgame is a full scale nuke war.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

39. Hardly. No melodrama whatsoever. The DUer made

Recommendations to STOP Putin's entry to begin with! No fly zone. Arm it up. It was very specific and I don't remember it all.

You can make fun of it all you want - if we had followed that advice, thousands and thousands of people would still be alive. I wonder how many in government feel the same way.

[Make7]

14. Wait. I thought the Russian Ministry of Defense said a fire caused the damage.

Why would an accident aboard a ship be cause for bombing anything?

The Russian Defence Ministry says the Moskva was badly damaged by a fire and sank in a storm as it was being towed to port.

It previously said that “a detonation of ammunition” triggered a fire and forced the crew to evacuate.

[wnylib]

15. So I guess this reaction on Russian state TV means

that Russia is openly admitting that the ship was sunk by Ukrainians and was not a tragic case of spontaneous combustion.

[AntiFascist]

18. I've read Ukraine was developing a game-changing missile that could reach Moscow...

maybe they can ultimately pose a counter-threat, and it won't just be the ship this time.

[NJCher]

20. From the minute the bald guy opened his mouth

I could tell he was in a state of emotional angst. I think he is an outlier.

Bomb them once means bomb ourselves, too. Nuclear radiation doesn’t respect the Ukraine/Russia border.

[Kablooie]

21. I wonder what the US plans are if Putin nukes Ukraine?

They must have a game plan ready if this happens.

Do they respond or just let Putin continue to nuke whatever he wants, as long as it's not a NATO country?

[yardwork]

31. What do you think we should do? Bomb them back with nuclear weapons?

[SoonerPride]

35. That is what would happen.

The UK and US have told Russia that if thy use chemical or nuclear weapons then we will intervene with nuclear arms and end them. Of course they could end the planet.

But if you have watched Biden when asked about it he has given indication that unconventional arms is the line in the sand.

[roamer65]

24. Nuke Kyiv for their own accidental explosion???

Seems they have painted themselves into a corner with their lies.

[Achilleaze]

27. Remember the Maine!

[Quixote1818]

29. This is nothing new. They have been talking about Nuking Poland since March

[BannonsLiver]

36. Mission accomplished for Putin if this thread is any indicator.

Lots of melodrama and fear.
