Russia Prepares For Nuclear War With US

Russian state-owned television is urging the country’s residents to stock their bunkers with water and basic foodstuffs because Moscow could go to war with Washington.

Warning that the potential conflict between the two superpowers would be “catastrophic,” an anchor for Russia’s Vesti 24 showed off shelves of food, recommending that people buy salt, oatmeal and other products that can last a long time on the shelves. Powdered milk lasts five years while sugar and rice can last up to eight years, the newscaster explained before showing videos of pasta cooking in a bomb shelter.

The channel's newscasters also displayed charts explaining how much water people need to store for drinking, washing their face and hands, and preparing food every day—and how that amount changes depending on the temperature of a person’s bomb shelter. The program also recommended that people stock up on gas masks and read guides on how to survive nuclear war.

And we prepare for nuclear war with them.

Who knew?

Dang these folks are dense/devious.

[Enlightened1]

If we attack first, and Russia retaliates by sinking Navy Ships full of sailors.

Most war game scenarios with Russian show us going to thermonuclear war within hours of this starting.

I know I feel better...

If Trump can get them to go crazy this easy, he should do so on at least a monthly basis.

I remember that from the movie “Threads”, just that ending music creeped the Hell out of me.

[shelterguy]

Well this sucks. I was gonna go to an auction this weekend but if we are gonna get nuked I better stay in the basement.

And iodine tabs, don’t forget those.

Their news media is just as whacked as ours. Who knew?

[dfwgator]

Maybe it will come just in time for Christmas...

Nothing but propaganda intended for our enemedia to spread.

Russians know the slightest increase in demand will empty the shelves and they won’t get restocked any time soon.

[DoughtyOne]

Actually, the same for me... (creeped me out)

I suppose that information would be good for outlier communities. Homes under the blast would be vaporized > IMO.

Should I start stuffing my face with chocolate now or wait?

Basmati rice can last 25 years if stored completely dry.

Sugar lasts indefinitely.

how to survive nuclear war

1) accept Jesus as your Savior
2) go to heaven when the missiles explode
3) since the second half of 2) is highly unlikely, prepare for a Christian life until the first half of 2) occurs

He’s got the Uranium.

Absolutely.

I’m not worried. There’s a nice fat target in town.

The blast will get me.

Not the ones I’ve seen. In general, two nuclear powers, each of which has a second strike capability, will not start a nuclear war because the other side will obviously retaliate with nukes. In other words, the initiator of a nuclear war is literally committing suicide, because the second strike will target command and control, i.e. the people who gave the order. That is why even at the height of the Cold War, when Americans and Russians killed hundreds of their opposite numbers, with Russians tallying up bigger numbers because of their manning of SAM sites and US air superiority, nothing even close to nuclear war materialized. National leaders all have a finely-honed sense of self-preservation.
