make nuclear threats against key U.S. and European capital cities. "Against Kyiv, Berlin, London, Washington. Against all other beautiful historical places that have been long ago included in the flight targets of our nuclear triad," he wrote according to Gerashchenko.

If we take these threats seriously the USA should launch a preemptive nuclear strike on Russia. I do not.

““Putin Ally” = Russian nut job dug-up by leftist media to make Putin seem menacing.”

Actually he’s basically the Vice President of Russia, but I agree with you that he’s being used to convey messages so that there are not any misunderstandings, should election polling force the Neocons to try attacking Russia itself.

Any diplomacy attempts in the Putin administration trying to end these wars?

Russia started a massive war by illegally trespassing another nation’s border, invading its sovereign territory with 400.000 troops and annexing by force 17% of it’s entire territory. All that while allying itself with the world’s communist countries and synchronizing its anti-Israel policies with the world’s most extreme Islamic nation : The Islamic State of Iran and Hamas / Hezbollah.

The deep-state in Russia will have to stop this madness. Sooner or later, it will have to anyway.

I have made this point often.

Putin is a moderate. His political opposition are largely more extreme.

They won’t nuke DC. when your enemy is committing an error, stand aside. DC is more dangerous to Americans than any Nuke.
If they were stupid enough to destroy those capitol cities they would surely lose Moscow and St, Petersberg.
Unlike most countries who would cease to exist without their capitols, the USA would do just fine, in fact better if DC were utterly destroyed.
Then saner minds could prevail.

“’Putin Ally’ = Russian nut job dug-up by leftist media to make Putin seem menacing.”

Are you claiming that Medvedev is a creation of “leftist media?” He is a longtime Russian political figure: Current Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation (second only to Putin); Former Russian president; former Russian Prime Minister; et als. He is hardly a construct of the “leftist media,” unless they groomed him and put him in power. Is that your claim?

Why in the Wide World of Sports would Putin do any favors for regular Americans?

The Russians might not Nuke the Rural, Mountainous and Forrest Areas, which are predominately populated by Regular Americans.

Unfortunately, those areas would probably soon be overrun by Homosexuals who glow in the dark.

Exactly, America is being destroyed by homegrown commies, no need for Moscow to supply any outward help, plausible deniability.

Why wouldn't the US just leave Russia the eff alone instead?

Are Western neo-liberals incapable of restraint?

Deep state won’t like that.
————
Ukies running away leaving western arms intact at fallen Avidivka, again….how long before Vlad “ returns” them to the US? Kadyrov already promised that with his haul of western weapons taken at Marioupol.

Geo- located video of abandoned western arms….

“Everything suggests that the Ukrainian Armed Forces did not leave Avdeevka, but ran away.
A sufficient amount of ammunition and ammunition was thrown. They didn’t have time to clear anything and even the documents of military units, etc., were thrown away.

The Russians are already publishing their findings.
For example, boxes with cartridges, grenades, or the remaining intact Swedish Carl-Gustaf grenade launchers and ammunition for them.

No one prepared a planned departure, but were forced to leave due to the failures of the command.

https://t.me/legitimniy/17278
Our source reports that Commander-in-Chief Syrsky gave the order last night to withdraw from Avdeevka for only one reason.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces units began to leave on their own. But, first of all, the third assault itself decided to leave the positions of the “coking plant”, since being there was fatal, as if in a trap.

For the General Staff and Bankova it was a shock that no one remained to fight to the last, as was the case at Azovstal. The soldiers chose life over death for the sake of the political interests of Zelensky and his entourage.

This was a forced measure by Syrsky to show that there was no rebellion or split in the army, that everything was “planned.” That is why some units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces remained blocked at the coke plant and did not have time to leave, like many in Avdiivka. Nobody warned them about leaving. They learned about this fact from the Internet.

Avdiivka is significant in that it showed what we warned about. The morale of the army fell very low, and the illusion created by the propaganda of the OP that everything was fine led to such consequences.

If no conclusions are drawn. There will be more and more Avdeevkas.

…a footnote: the new miracle Ukie General Srysky gave the order to abandon Avidiivka, they abandoned everything.

The major problem with this scenario is that warning would be given and the DC rats would scatter all over the place.

We'd never hear about any from the US Deep Swamp, MSM or you.

You won't even tell us about your Nazi Frog Government destroying Yellow Vest Protestors, French Farmers, and your Paris Muslim Terrorist No-Go Zones for French Cops and French Christians.

PS, Your car is on fire.

The deep-state Kremlinists in Moscow are our traditional enemies.
Thats why we must side with the “deplorable” Russian people instead. And also Ukraine and Israel - both are our strong allies fighting for us against Sovietism and Islamism.

The Kremlin is now threatening to nuke America...
It’s time for the hippie peace-doves in America to wake up.
Freedom doesn’t come for free. If you dont fight for it you end up being invaded and then become a slave.
