Russian Military Expert: 'We Are Quietly Seeding The U.S. Shoreline With Nuclear Mole Missiles'

On February 28, Russian military expert Viktor Baranetz, a retired colonel and former defense ministry spokesman, published an article in the Russian tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda titled "Trump-Pump-Pump And Our Big Bang." In the article, Baranetz asserted that Russia has asymmetrical responses to the increase in the U.S. military budget. According to Baranetz, Russia is "quietly 'seeding' the U.S. shoreline with nuclear 'mole' missiles" that "dig themselves in and 'sleep' until they are given the command" to detonate.

However, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed these claims. In response to a journalist's question on Baranetz's article, Peskov said: "This sounds strange, to say the least, and so I would suggest that you not take newspaper reports like this seriously."[1]

Following are excerpts from Baranetz's article:[2]

As said, lifted both of these stories: http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,253159.0.html

This one, not too sure about. Too alarming.

I agree with not taking this seriously. Nuclear warheads require constant maintenance to stay viable. The constant radiation from the fissile elements degrades the electronics, and if it is a thermonuclear weapon, the tritium in it will need replacing and purging on a routine basis. Nukes are something you keep a close eye on at all times, or you will find out that when you need them, they are useless piles of radioactive trash.

Ah, but that's only for regular warheads.  These are mole warheads.  Totally different thing.

It's a mole/burrowing rodent trap. Not a live trap, but one designed to finish the little nippers off in their tunnel.

OK, Lando, what is that?

It is a mole trap.  The little devils borough around your yard eating tender roots of grass, flowers, ornamental shrubs, etc.  From time to time, they push up little mounds of dirt - always at the pause of their destructive journey.  So, you tamp down the mounds and install this killing machine at the most recent mound.  It has high tension springs and a trigger mechanism - sort of like an evil mouse trap.  Mr. Mole, deciding to continue his destructive meal/journey will again push up the soil at the most recent point.  This triggers death from above and the blades spear the soil and the little critter.  I've used them - about half of the "hits" score. 

Back in the day, you could just use castor beans to chase the little SOB's away.  Well, since human evil-doers use castor extract to make Ricin gas, it is not so easy to find the beans.

We have a lot of gophers and moles.  Other than the occasional hunting heron, they are pretty much safe from everything.

My first effort at making flash powder yielded an 18-inch crater in my yard with all the neighbors saying, "what the hell was THAT!?"  Windows survived but the mole was obliterated, I think.  I went to the spring-loaded traps after that.

Oh, interesting.  Thanks,

When I was about 4, a neighbor let me watch his mole electrocuting process.  Two leads coming from a hand crank, probes into both sides of the mole hole.  Suckers came up squealing, and he whacked them with a Louisville Slugger.

Haven't been the same since.   :pondering:
