I dont know what the name of it is.

Search Black Hole Russian Sub and you will get the info on it.

The US Navy calls it the black hole. NATO Naval ships lost contact with it several times in the Med and it scared the livin hell out of them.

He’s a dangerous lunatic.

Like sauntering into a McDonald's and telling the order-taker, "If my McFlurry isn't cold enough, I'm going to shoot up this place!"

Disproportionate threat. The sign of an unhinged mind.

[...] allows them to use the advanced weaponry of multiple nations, causing Putin to fight multiple countries at once, at the same time sneering he’s weak because he didn’t defeat the Ukraine swiftly as thought, back when he believed he was only fighting the Ukraine.

Well, he did stupidly attack Ukraine. His massive tank columns on their way 90 km to Kyiv did fall apart and get stuck in a quagmire within three days. He has lost more than 100,000 troops since the invasion began. He did lose a capital ship, the "Moskva," the pride of the Black Sea Fleet, with almost all hands on board. He did fail to anticipate that Ukraine would receive support from the collective West. And he is being pushed back on all fronts.

In that case, I'd say that the "sneering" was justified.

The man is incompetent.

I often wondered what happning would be serious enough for Russia to garner other nations along side of them against US and Europe.

Easy: Putin finds a new malignant mole on his butt!

The real question is: What nation would be stupid enough to side with a loser like Putin at this point?

What nation would want to join the "Russia-Belarus-N. Korea-Iran" Club?

They said last summer that long range weapons were a “red line,” and that if the west provided them, then they would hit the, “decision centers.”

Yeah, the neighborhood bully gets to make the rule of the game! Sure!

"I get to rocket-bomb any target (incl. kindergartens, rest homes, shopping centers) in Ukraine that I want - but the Ukrainians aren't allowed to attack anything in Russia! That would be crossing the red line!"

Ri-ight!

History shows us that, despite appearances, no war of the past has ever had a single cause for its outbreak.

Quite true!

And in the case of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there were, indeed, multiple causes:

1. Putin thought that attacking Ukraine would be an easy win and would bolster his image.

2. Putin thought invading Ukraine would distract from problems on the domestic front.

3. Putin is an incompetent military strategist and grossly miscalculated.

4. Putin...

Well if you’re acquainted with Scripture you would understand my finding that interesting...’that’ alignment of nations joining with Russia WILL happen sooner or later so it’s interesting hearing one of Russia’s top men mentioning it openly.

Yes, I am familiar with Scripture - though not with your own, peculiar, and probably warped interpretation of it.

They’ve threatened global catastrophe for about 2 dozen times now.

We ought to tell them “hey, you guys are losing to the Ukrainians. If you want to keep some dignity, it may be best for you to retreat to 20th February 2022 borders”

It may be a face saving measure - the Russians retreat to Donbas and Crimea and tell their brainwashed public “we would have won, but there were NATO and Polish troops using drug-empowered genetically enhanced zombies and that’s why we lost. By the way, here’s a washing machine as replacement for your son who died”

Iran has also been distancing itself from Russia - they said that they categorically do not recognize Russia’s assimilation of Crimea and the 4 Ukrainian Donbas provinces.

Business :)

Just like India and China are happy enough to buy Russian oil and gas at 40% or more discounts, but won’t supply the Russians with any ammunition or recognition for their aggression

Wow, the Globalists just GOTTA have their "New World Order"

Revelation 17:13-17
King James Version

13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

...2015, the school-bus sized torpedo is a strategic weapon that is designed to slip under the U.S. ballistic missile defense network.

It might slip under the U.S. ballistic missile defense network because it is not a ballistic missile. But suppose they do launch one or more of the torpedoes. There is little question as to who the culprit would be. Do you think they would not be thoroughly destroyed in retaliation?

“Russia’s politicians have been saying for months that if they are facing an existential threat to the country, Russia may go nuclear.

That’s not suicidal — because if they faced an existential threat, and did nothing, they’d be guaranteed to die.”

If Pooftin launches nukes, without being assassinated and overthrown, think ahead and surmise the viability of Russia once all is over. What do you think will be the livability of Russia? What spoils remain for the victor? The lifespan of whomever gives the order to launch, should be extremely short to prevent the total loss of the Muthaland!
