There Is No Choice Left: Russia Will Have To Launch A Nuclear Strike On Europe
RIA Novosti Russia ^ | 6/25/2023 | Sergey Karaganov

Posted on 06/25/2023 11:06:35 PM PDT by Nextrush

For seventy-five years of mutual deterrence, nuclear weapons have saved the world, and people just got used to it. Now we see with our own eyes that nuclear weapons no longer stop, because the unthinkable is happening: the West has unleashed a big war in the underbelly of a great nucler power...

At some point, we also calmed down, went in line with Western theories and recklessly raised the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons, which the West is now using for a reason. There all the time, semi-officials emphasize: no, the Russians will never use nuclear weapons. They want us not to even raise this question under any circumstances, as if clearing the way for them for an endless war in Ukraine. But given that their military-industrial potential is higher than ours, they just want to wear us out...

I want to believe that our opponents will come to their senses. Because if not, then the military-political leadership of Russia will face a terrible moral choice and the need to make a difficult decision. But I believe that our president must at some point project his determination to use nuclear weapons...

the use of nuclear weapons is a monstrous step, it should be avoided if possible. But, as the vector of the West, its elites and society, their movement towards anti-human and post-human values shows, all this indicates and objective approach to a big thermonuclear war. We must interrupt this process and thus save the world- if possible, of course, avoiding super-tough actions...

Your President Putin’s Russia is imperialistic, violating national sovereignty

We would never do that. That dumb Putin. He should have come up with a slogan like manifest destiny and all would be right with the world.

They could pass something like the Indian Removal Act, call it the Ukrainian Removal Act, have their high court bless it, and in a few years all the uncivilized tribes would be moved out to some remote location the size of eastern Olahoma. Problem solved and it would all be voluntary, some more voluntary than others.

Putin forgot to say it was God's will. He is stubborn and has not yet conformed to the American way.

In modern times, the United States foments the overthrow of governments in Europe. Agents Jake and Elwood, under the guidance of Sister Mary Stigmata, are on a mission from God.

Going back to the "purchase" of Manhattan island, we stole it fair and square, and that makes all the difference.

MAD. We’ll nuke them back. Putin is not going to do it unless he predicts he’ll get overthrown in a minute.

MAD. Now imagine if Putin sends a cluster of nuclear missiles aimed at the Yellowstone Caldera volcanic hotspots, and the super volcano blows. The ensuing blast would destroy much of the U.S.A. Just one MIRV missile getting through our defenses would do it. And Putin has thousands of nukes at his disposal.

They can destroy us, despite us nuking them back. Not a fun scenario. Question is, will he be insane enough to pull the trigger?

Oddly, as with Napoleon and numerous lesser figures, the West is likely to be scrupulous about sanctuary for Putin, especially if in relatively friendly venues like Spain, Switzerland, and Serbia and has the gloss of approval by the UN.

The next ruler of Russia will be weaker than Putin, not just as a ruler but weaker in that Russia is in decline and will be weaker. A first strike on the US and Europe is plausible in concept but extremely unlikely in fact because the US retaliatory strike on Russia would be utterly devastating. The more worrisome danger is that one or more nukes could get loose on the international black market if Russia falls into disorder.

Yes, because Putin invaded Ukraine due to "trannies".

The He-man Putin lovers need to stop thinking with their genitals. They are just becoming the mirror image of the left.

The Ukrainians don’t think it was coup. Why do you?

They could even call it the “Тропа слез” or “Стежка сліз” for extra authenticity.

Maybe, or maybe more powerful and dangerous. The "decision makers" currently in the US govt. are very stupid.

The more worrisome danger is that one or more nukes could get loose on the international black market if Russia falls into disorder.

That is worrisome, but our current "leaders" are more concerned with making the phony public image of Biden "the war hero who punished Putin."
