Russian officials routinely make saber-rattling remarks about Moscow’s nuclear posture. Sergei Shoigu, a former defense minister who now heads Russia’s powerful national security council, made his comments on April 24 in an interview with the TASS state news agency.

Any state level talk of nuclear threat is always done from a position of weakness and in open admission of the poverty of your conventional force. It also shows a lack of understanding and inhumanity.

I’d say bring it on!

I hope they don’t.

But if they do, it has to absolutely guarantee the 100% complete and utter extinction of the Russian race.

Because we have to set a precedent.

Ah yes, genocide is always the answer.

After all, we killed all the Germans Right?

As much as the rhetoric of Russia is weak and bordering tragic comedy, they should really really not “bring it on”

Uh-huh. Anyone keeping track of how many times they’ve threatened with nukes? I think this is at least 3-4 that I remember.

But they really mean it this time, really.

SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de on 24 Apr 14:00 next collapse

Yawn

We’re so far past the last “final red line” that it’s now just a red dot on the horizon in the rearview mirror.

Just nuke us already, it wouldn’t do a fraction of the damage trump is doing anyway.
