Ukraine is readying evacuation centers in its capital city of Kyiv in preparation for a potential nuclear attack following warnings from Russian President Vladimir Putin that his country would take every necessary action to claim victory.
Putin recently threatened that Russia would not hesitate to deploy nuclear weapons against what he called “a threat to the territorial integrity of our country.”
The preparations come following Russia’s escalatory move in the war to annex parts of occupied Ukraine following referenda in each of the areas. The votes were viewed by a large swath of the international community as illegitimate and Ukraine’s allies, including the U.S., condemned Russian annexation.
The City Council of Kyiv says evacuation centers are being equipped with potassium iodine pills, which can help against radiation absorption, in the event of a nuclear strike on the capital.

America always gets the criminal refugees. Like the Tsarnaev brothers.
It is my understanding that, the nuclear submarine that carries the Poseidon bomb has gone “missing.”
Russian nuclear submarine armed with ‘doomsday’ weapon disappears from Arctic harbor: report

I wasn’t a better red than dead guy during the cold war; and, I’m not going to be a better Putin and dead guy now.
About miscalculating with Hitler, no need to say “if.” We miscalculated and we wound up in a war. By “we,” I mean France and England. You agree with this, correct? We miscalculated by appeasing Hitler and wound up in a war? We should have stood up to Hitler?
Is Putin a scarier bastard that Hitler? Let me put it this way: what if Osama bin Laden had a nuke? What if Kim jung-un? O.K., that bastard has some. What if he had more? What if Hitler hadn’t scared John von Neumann and a half dozen other geniuses to the U.S. and he, and not us, developed the atomic bomb?
I’ll give you the God’s honest answer: we fight AND WIN.
I will now quote from Hail Britannia:
Hail Britannia, Britannia rule the waves.
We will never, never, never be slaves.
As for panty-waists who wish they were living in Switzerland and not in a country that has the awesome responsibility we have: you better hope we win because they’ll be nobody for you to get behind if we fail.
Have you ever been to Switzerland?
Putin threatens to use nukes
Putin nukes Ukraine.
Ukraine: Putin nuked us.
Putin: I nuked Ukraine
US: We saw Russian nuke Ukraine
Putinistas: Ukraine did it to themselves
yes I have
I’m sorry if I sounded like I was critical of Switzerland. It is a special place in many ways. Even unique. And, it serves the world well as a neutral country.
It didn't have a fallout shelter. It had a blast shelter capable of surviving a Hiroshima-sized blast 300m away.
It is like the Sudetenland. Only everyone has it backwards. A nazi army from Ukraine was moving into eastern Ukraine. They were stopped by patriots who opted out of the Kiev coup. Now Russia called their bluff like the Euros should have with Hitler.
The Switz have a “honeycomb” defense. Every man of military is a member of the militia. There are uniformed men with their FNs or some other fine individual weapon always going about. Every home has these weapons and their ammunition. There is nobody with the authority to surrender. You’d have to defeat every valley of Switzerland. Neat and orderly. Electric fences are placed on yards so one or two sheep can graze for a day, or a cow. On a rail excursion - just gorgeous - I only saw one wall with graffiti. I was embarrassed as, I thought, that could have been done by an American. Something like this militia approach is being adopted by Poland and other front line countries based on the success of the Territorial Defense Force in Ukraine. Let us, the people, take ownership and responsibility for our country.
Yup! The plant manager was a Major, we got a pretty good tour. Especially after I made note of dragon’s teeth at the choke points of every valley floor, and observed that the charming little chalet directly in front of us after rounding a blind turn on a mountain road looked like a pillbox with fancy faux windows...
“It is my understanding that, the nuclear submarine that carries the Poseidon bomb has gone “missing.””
Or maybe we have it dead to rights and an attack sub waiting the order to zap it. When my Granddad was a submariner during WWII, Congressman Andrew Jackson May (D-Kentucky) told the papers after a classified Pentagon briefing that the Japanese were setting their depth charges too shallow, and not to worry about our boys in the submarine service. Well, the Japanese read the papers too, and at least 10 US submarines with all their crew died because of Congressman May’s big, fat mouth. My Granddad was almost one of them. The less I know about submarine ops, the better.
Oh yes, almost forgot. Congressman Andrew Jackson May (D-Kentucky) did Federal time after the war, for bribery related to war contracts. He never did one f***ing second of time for the murder of over 800 American sailors.
