Simonyan’s calm imagining of nuclear holocaust is just the latest threat issued from the top levels of the Russian state, after fellow propagandist Vladimir Solovyov, foreign minister Sergei Lavrov, and Putin himself issued threats in the last 48 hours.
The US and UK have dismissed such rhetoric as bluster but the increasing frequency of the threats coupled with the failures of Russia’s military will raise fears that a Cold War-style standoff is now a realistic possibility before the war in Ukraine ends.
It comes after Russia successfully test-launched its latest nuclear missile - Sarmat 2 - last week, with Putin boasting it can strike targets anywhere on earth and cannot be stopped by any current missile defences.
Bad Vlad’s children are doing their best imitation of Muslim suicide bombers.
Break out the marshmallows.
Margarita Simonyan told Russian state TV last night that the idea of nuclear war is 'more probable' than the idea that Putin will allow Russia to be defeated in Ukraine
Russia has steppe up its nuclear threats to the West ever since testing its new Sarmat 2 missile last week (pictured), which Putin boasted is unstoppable by any current defences
Putin is the only one pushing war. This is all on him.
Daily Mail propaganda is always good for a laugh!
Can’t you find any better trash to litter FR with than some ruskie Rachel Maddow BS?
They’re right, but IMO it won’t happen for a few decades and not until immediately after Jesus takes his saints out of this world along with the Holy Spirit.
If this were imminent his own bodyguards would club him to death. I don’t think they share his grandiose vision. I don’t think anyone in the Kremlin or his oligarchs share his grandiose vision of glory from dying.
Yeah well at every stage Russia had said what they were going to do and they have turned around and done it so I would be more inclined to believe Putin then I would these naysayers who say it’s just bluster
How in the Hell did Russia become so pathetic that it cannot beat Ukraine?
Propaganda....
Russia’s state TV = US’s State TV ,LOL
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin talks to rock stars Bono and Bob Geldof during the G8 summit in Genoa, 2001.Vlad, Bonokskksk........ Bono is listed as 5'5" to 5'6" tall. Vlad looks the same height. What a big smile on Vlad. These days he's a grumpy old sourpuss. His alter ego is "Mad Bomber"I thought little vladdie-girl is winning??? That’s what all her bootlickers are telling me! They wouldn’t lie, now would they?
Then why is the little girl having nuclear temper tantrums?
Oh, because nations friendly to Ukraine are replenishing its military supplies? So the INVADED country is supposed to fight with one arm tied behind its back while the INVADING savages can rape, murder, and pillage through a country where less than a hundred years ago, they murdered 10 million actual human beings by starving them to death?
Little vladdie-girl needs to learn something about human psychology. The pig sty russia is an existential threat to Ukraine and all Ukrainians. In natural justice, there is an absolute right to self-defense against barbarians who threaten one’s very existence. A people in this situation will fight you to the last man, woman, and child. They’re gonna die anyway, they figure, if they were to surrender, so why not take as many of you bastards with them?
What we learn from this is little vladdie-girl is NOT winning this war as long as friendly nations give Ukrainians the arms they need to defend themselves against this INVASION, and little vladdie-girl is a cowardly bully who threatens to kill everyone in the world if her victims don’t just lay down and take it.
Eff little vladdie-girl. She should return to the father who spawned her, Satan.
Does anyone seriously think if they had mass suicide planned everyone would be in agreement, from tv newscasters to Kremlin officials ? This is organized messaging.
So the lead that was buried was Russia is likely to lose the war in Ukraine?
That’s interesting if the Russians are starting to believe that.
I think there is something uniquely and fundamentally wrong with the Russian character. Their history of oppressive wars, their adoption of communism and from that when they had a chance for freedom they choose Kleptocracy.
Writers from the old days have spoke about their penchant for doom and suffering (Checkhov is an example). Some say it’s a genetic “gift” from the Mongols.
Do not think for one second that this is the same kind of posturing we get from Iran and North Korea.
Russia has a massive nuclear arsenal that is capable of hitting major US cities. It does not have the same safeguards that we have to prevent their use.
I do believe there are forces seeking to provoke a limited nuclear exchange. I’m not sure why.
If I had to guess I would say China is hoping to weaken the US and Russia in order to dominate the world militarily and economically. I think what is more likely is that the US will get to showcase more sophisticated weaponry than has been seen before, but not without a cost.
Regardless, I strongly recommend being prepared for the the possibility of surviving a limited nuclear war. This means knowing what to do in the first few seconds, minutes, hours, days. And prepping with at least minimal supplies for survival for months.
It sounds like they are trying to scare US. Then again maybe Putin really is crazy.
