Putin says one missile will trigger ‘hundreds’ of warheads in stark message on nuclear deterrence

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday once again drew international attention when he warned that if even one missile enters Russian territory, "hundreds" of warheads will respond.

"I assure you, after the early warning system receives a signal of a missile attack, hundreds of our missiles are in the air," he said from a summit in Kyrgyzstan, reported Russian news outlet RIA. "It is impossible to stop them."

"There will be nothing left of the enemy, because it is impossible to intercept a hundred missiles. This, of course, is a deterrent – a serious deterrent," he added.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Well, so far, the Ukrainians have been successfully using drones to hit military targets inside Russia, so that would appear to be hunky-dory with the Chief Orc.

Ukraine has every right to defend themselves, but be reminded that this has been an on going war.  I don't doubt Putin's capabilities nor do I think he's bluffing.  All the money that the U.S. and other have been throwing at Ukraine doesn't seem to be a deterrent to Russia.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The problem with M.A.D. is that thoses that are MAD like North Korea's Little Kimshi just don't care.

I'm afraid this world has become a ticking time bomb; between XI, Putin and Jong-Un, what could possibly go wrong?? They know that Joe is the weakest president the U.S. has ever had.
