CIA estimated 50% chance that Russia would nuke Ukraine if it risked losing war
NY Post ^ | 3/10/24 | Ronny Reyes

The Biden administration scrambled behind the scenes to prepare for the imminent possibility that Russia would use tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine, a shocking new report revealed.

In 2022, the CIA warned President Biden of a 50% change or higher that Russia would reach for its nuclear arsenal if it found its forces were decimated and the illegally annexed territory of Crimea was at risk, according to the New York Times.

Those reports caused Biden to deliver his famous “Armageddon” speech at an Oct. 6, 2022, fundraiser in New York City, in which he warned, “We have not faced the prospect of Armageddon since Kennedy and the Cuban Missile Crisis.”

Yep - the world’s “premier intelligence gathering agency,” has narrowed it down to a coin toss.

A prediction from a government agency that believes 100% that a woman can have a penis and a man can get pregnant.

Now there’s a group, the CIA, no-one should trust.

90% actually. Target population is 500 million.

I agree completely. I view the CIA, DOJ, and FBI and wholly Deep State now.

I also agree that it is bizarre. Trump winning increases the likelihood for Russian success in Ukraine (the way the Left sees it-we don’t see where it makes a difference either way) and therefore, according to the CIA, less likelihood of a nuclear explosion somewhere in the world.

Seems like a good thing, right? But they clearly don’t want Trump to win, and they clearly want aid to Ukraine to continue regardless of the outcome, which would make a nuclear explosion in a populated city more likely...so...why?

I see your point.

The deep-state warmongering Kremlin politicians have threatened the West and America with nuclear attacks nearly non-stop every second week or so, for about two years now. They base their threats on new varying excuses every time. For God’s sake, what the F is going on in Russia?
The Kremlin has become a circus run by hens without heads in permanent panic mode.
The Russian MIC (military industrial complex) is sucking up +30% of Russia’s entire budget (!) as we speak. Russian taxpayers are paying the bill.
For how long will the Russian people accept to be treated this way?

That was what I thought as well. It could have been 45-55 or 30-70, but...50-50?

People are right to look at that and assume it was pulled out of someone’s ass.

With Macron and Duda threatening to send NATO troops, Sweden entering NATO, and Western weapons captured left and right - the Russians rightly realize they are at WAR with NATO, right on their border. And their touchstone/reference for this is "the Great Patriotic War."

So they will fight for "as long as it takes." I know you don't agree with the propaganda you spew (its just your job after all), but do not doubt it.

By the way - US just appointed John Bass as Under-secretary of State, to take over for Nuland. He oversaw the US evacuation from Kabul

I hope you have booked your helicopter flight out.

We have enough current naval assets to simultaneously build a Mulberry Harbor in Gaza, fight Houthis in Yemen, invade Crimea to start WW III and provoke China into WW IV. Our woke Navy is perfectly fine, no issues.

Everything from the CIA, FBI, and DOJ is suspect.

100% chance that the CIA would nuke Ukraine, and blame it on Russia.

“I must admit I have had fears of a catastrophically stupid NATO Inchon invasion of Crimea.”

No one is going to do an amphibious invasion of Crimea. Naval forces in the Black Sea (on any side) would support or augment land operations...just like the Russian fleet did when Crimea was seized in 2014 and the three day war started two years ago.

Give Ukraine a handful of nukes from the NATO stockpile. They proved last May that they can hit Moscow with drone attacks. Maybe they’ll get lucky and fly one through Putin’s window!

Remember, they want to cull half the world population.

The way I heard it, they want to cull the world population TO ONE-HALF BILLION. That's way more'n half!
