APOCALYPSE NOW Nuclear World War 3 is now a ‘REAL DANGER’ and Britain and Nato would be a ‘legitimate’ target, warns Putin chief

A NUCLEAR world war is now a "real" danger and Britain and Nato would be a "legitimate" target, Russia's foreign minister has warned.

In a chilling message, Sergei Lavrov said the risk of World War Three is now "considerable" and must not be "underestimated".

Lavrov accused Nato forces of "pouring oil on the fire" by supplying arms to Ukrainian troops - and claimed Russia wanted to prevent a nuclear war at all costs.

In an interview with Russian news agencies, he said: "This is our key position on which we base everything. The risks now are considerable.

"I would not want to elevate those risks artificially. Many would like that. The danger is serious, real, And we must not underestimate it."

And the war hawk said Britain and other Nato countries "would be a legitimate target" after "pumping weapons into Ukraine".

We would suffer huge losses. And Russia would be turned into a sheet of glass.

It is funny that you believe we would retaliate with nuclear weapons.

Did you forget that it was Obama who said we could absorb a nuclear attack?

When they cheat and nobody will look at the evidence then it’s
Impossible. More and more evidence comes out. The judges don’t want to see it and the media won’t cover it or report it.

In addition to the tactical calculations, Russia would have immediately collapsed if we took lend-lease away.

They recovered, sort of, following WWII, giving them funds to develop a strategic missiles, a space program, start to build a blue ocean navy, as well as modernize their ground forces. In those days, money came in mostly from arms sales to client states. Keynesian economists greatly over-estimated the growth of the economy of the Soviet Union, in part because they envied central-planning and in part because they accepted the fake statistics of communist countries as real. It turns out, the communist countries were all third world nations, in terms of economics.

Then we had the naive belief that elections are all you need for democracy. No. Democracy is a subtle thing. It’s good to have a Constitution that ordinary people can understand (like the Ten Commandments). But, for that to be real, it has to be written on the hearts and minds of the people. All democracies have problems, some worse than others. And, besides, we really don’t want a democracy. We want a republic.

So, Russia having one or two elections did not guarantee that country would have a successful future. We need to offer the people of Russia the possibility of a successful future, while dealing with the kleptocrats who are in charge right now. This requires a combination of long-term vision and short-term realism that is woefully lacking in our country.

thank you. When my son took the oath, I thought about getting back in, to you know make sure he would be safe. I’m sorry. I was already too old. I kind knew that already because when I saw him and his fellow soldiers, they all looked so handsome and so beautiful.

The Capitol Police will be on you in a hot second.

You have freedom here.

Not so much anymore - Patriot Act relieved us of some freedom to travel, and with each unnatural act passed by congress, each dictate by whomever controls dopey Joe, and by black robed legislators Liberty gets another chunk taken out of it. Hell, they're still pushing for a social credit ID, and they will succeed. Elections are rigged, so forget that as your argument that we are free. The gloves will come off in 2023.

Russia not so much. You would be hauled away.

Yeah, russia sucks pretty badly, but I don't live there, I have to deal with what I have in here America with all of the woketards on the left hand and globalonanists for forever war on the other left hand.

And you side with Russia...pathetic

Nope. I'm MAGA.
zelcheney fanbois tend to be overly emotional whenever you don't praise their newfound clown-god sufficiently.

Putin may be ill. If he has little time left he may want to go out like some sort of Peter the Great, in which case he could be extremely dangerous, and since he has started this failure of a military operation, he has painted himself into a corner where failure could end his career abruptly from the inside of Russia with great humiliation for him.

Stated nuclear policy of Russia includes any existential threat to the Russia(n government), and Putin has created that situation of potential failure in Ukraine.

They are being tried by jury of peers Some are being found guilty, some are not.

An all rat jury is not a jury of one’s peers.

The Dementia Puppet and his handlers are doing everything in their power to escalate this war... just like they did everything in their power to make it a hot war in the first place.

If you wanted this war to expand, you would be doing exactly what they have been doing...

Fools.

Wag that dog.

One of the biggest dangers is that we have a person as President who has been up to wrongdoing for years in Ukraine. Biden may be easily be blackmailed by a person like Zelensky to keep pumping money and weapons into Ukraine. Biden needs to be removed from office as soon as possible and charges need to be brought against any that conducted unlawful deals in foreign countries for Sloppy Joe that have led us to this point.

What was the saying about evil thriving when good people do nothing about bad things?

When we reach, say, 80,000 dead Russians, we can slow down/stop sending arms.

THat will be payback for Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War I, GWOT, etc.

Hell, make it an even 100,000 to send a message.

“Why take the chance. We don’t have a dog 🐩 n this fight.”
Assuming you are asking a serious question I’ll give you my honest opinion.
Putin has been trying to expand Russia’s sphere of influence back to its more easily defendable USSR Cold War boundaries. Those boundaries require Russia to take back several NATO countries. While no one can know for sure Putin’s plans (nor especially what plans he had prior to his Ukrainian debacle), many people believe he intended to expand at least to the Polish border. The US has treaty obligations to defend NATO countries east of that Polish border. If the west stops Putin in Ukraine then a world war on less favorable terms over Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia can be avoided.

Just curious if anyone has brought up the possibility of an EMP strike on the US rather than destroying cities with nukes?
