Nuke War In Ukraine? No Big Deal, Says Biden Ally
Breitbart ^ | 16 Oct 20221 | NEIL MUNRO

Posted on 10/17/2022 11:11:04 PM PDT by NeverCheney

Liberal guests on Bill Maher’s comedy show downplayed the risk of nuclear escalation in the Ukraine vs. Russia war for control of the Donbas region.

“They’re tactical nukes — they’re just bigger versions of what a conventional attack would be,” said Neil deGrasse Tyson, a Harvard-trained science and “science communicator.” He said on the October 15 show:

“Modern nukes don’t have the radiation problem … it’s a different kind of weapon than Hiroshima and Nagasaki … in the way that we used to have to worry about with fallout and all the rest of that. What you really have to worry about is being vaporized and after that, if you’re not vaporized, blown to bits by the shock wave. That’s a way bigger problem that you’re going to have.”

From Breitbart:

These days, deGrasse Tyson is an emotional supporter of President Joe Biden and a reliable progressive. For example, he supports much of the transgender ideology that is being pushed by Biden. He is now backing Biden’s policy of providing unconditional support to Ukraine — and many billions of dollars in weapons.

FOOL! The Border between Ukraine and Russia is not worth ONE American or European life. Trump needs to end this travesty before the death toll goes from thousands to Millions.

He’s a retard and just a TV star. This foolish man actually thinks someone can use tactical nukes and it won’t escalate?
Also, Russia has not threatened to use tactical nukes in Ukraine at all. That came out of the DC fever swamp where they dreamed it up all by themselves.

We know that. But try to convince the members of the Worship George Soros chuch or the members of the Worship Joe Biden Brigade of that. Especially after both their masters said.”We must defend Ukraine.” Or words to that effect. It is like counting the grains of sand upon the beaches and aligning them in perfect lines. It can’t be done.

Crazy and tragic. Our neocons have spread so much misery to cover up their own crimes.

I believe what we have been seeing the last few days can be best capsulated in the General who has just been put in charge of this war effort.

Military correspondent Rudenko has published the first public statement by General Sergei “Armageddon” Surovikin:

“I am no longer willing to sacrifice Russian soldiers in a guerrilla war against hordes of fanatics armed by NATO. We have enough forces and technical means to lead Ukraine to complete surrender”.

A tactical nuke is 50KT. Thats 5X Hiroshima. I dont believe this story one bit because no scientist is going to say something so careless as to suggest its ok in any way to use nukes in any capacity. Its like the story is suggesting that a nuke is a surgical strike weapon only a tad bigger. Nahhh....this story is complete bs.

How reassuring./s

He managed to be a black guy, in physics, right when Big Bang theory became popular, and Carl Sagan was too old and boring… that’s it.

Bringing new meaning to bend over and simply kiss your behind goodbye.

If the below links don’t wake some folks up, nothing will.

The nuclear rhetoric echo chamber needs to be either toned down or cease.

“Nuclear War with Russia? ‘A Wall of Fire that Encompasses Everything Around Us at the Temperature of the Center of the Sun.’”

Russians do not need nukes to put Ukraine out of the terrorism and proxy-war business. The little bomb-drones are doing the job nicely.
