Nobody is firing nukes.
We live in hope.
I'm assuming your family is in Ukraine? Blessings to them if that's the case, hope everything is okay with them. As for the sports stuff, don't bother wasting your energy with that crap mate.
Thanks Mihai. Sounds much like most Brits abroad to be honest.
Hoping your country doesn't get dragged into this.
Doing so just leads to Russia firing them back. It's a lose, lose scenario and although we'd be going after military targets, we'd have no assurances that Russias would be. At least by conventional means it puts less emphasis on firing them back as we haven't traded. Perhaps just wishful thinking on my part but if we did launch a single Nuke at Russia then that would be the end of days. No thank you.

Anyway, hypothetical nuclear war can probably be thrown in a different thread. So if you want to continue that discussion go start a thread @Revan

Dammit Biden, not now.
The least conspicuous POTUS ever, and for good reason.
Well It's not really about backing Russia, they don't allow anything with a strong political message especially if it's protests.
Just the usual censorship really from them.
You say “Russia” but it’s basically a guy and his inner circle…you don’t seem to imagine a scenario where they target a Putin kill only, say a drone attack on him before they push any nuclear button surely that destroys the planet? Yea taking him out might not impact any Russian nuke strike but you’d have to try and hope before simply going straight to the end game. We must have secret service operatives in Moscow im not suggesting in his inner circle but certainly around perhaps…it’s fanciful but they came close to just this with Hitler.

Someone please please find him a retirement community. It was either this guy or trump. Damn.

Thermonuclear indicates they are fusion bombs. The fission reaction then causes the fusion reaction of the tritium stage.
What country is this? Latvia/Estonia I take?

No, it's pretty much certain there will be no nukes. I was concerned about it a few days ago but even since it has become very, very clear there is literally zero chance of nuclear war.
I wouldn't be surprised if that's a cover story, seems a bit too convenient. Maybe cover for methods the US is keen to keep more secret.
As someone else said, if it were true, you'd not publically say so! Case closed I think.
I dont find it the least bit concerning.
I'd probably expect Zelensky to be well outside of Kyiv already.

Tbf he mumbled thru the Uk..rain....part of the word. Sounded like Iranian instead.
His dentures probably got in the way.
The point is that the bulk of the released energy comes from the fission. Only 1% comes from the fusion. Which is not the case in an actual fusion bomb.
He has not done any video outside for a few days, I think.
Not something I am an expert in. But the only way I see this working is if you had a number of subs scattered across the north coast of Russia that simultaneously launched from right off the coast, they might just be able to hit the launch sites before the info could work its way through the chain of command to authorise, back to the launchers and for them to get the weapons away.
It doesn't solve the sub problem though, and it doesn't solve the mobile launchers.
So far every invasion/occupation from Putin has been met with a rise in popularity, I don’t think it’s a stretch to imagine that he consolidated a bit again, those who have been leaning anyway I guess. If only your country was full of brave people like you this would have never happened in the first place, as Putin would have been long gone by now.

Can Obama not stand for presidency again? This is funny as feck.
CNN just saying that the UN has confirmed that Russia has used cluster bombs.
It's actually relatively further away and nowhere near as bad as it is for the people with families and close ones in Ukraine.
Still, I sympathise with the plight of the Ukrainian people, it really feels heart-wrenching to see them suffer and not do anything about it because the maniac might get even more offended.
It was the nuclear plant threat that brought up stories about Chernobyl before I was born and how it affected people across the whole of Europe.
Russia nuking a NATO member is scary enough , but if they nuke the US, might as well kiss your ass goodbye.
If Russia nukes Ukraine, I can see a bit of A and B , they will done nothing straightaway, take about it for a while them do something along the lines of B
It really is horrifying to be seeing this in the 21st century in the center of European continent.
To quote the great Hamilton, this feels very much like "I'll send a fully armed batallion to remind you of my love" from MadVlad.
He did a press conference yesterday with journalists yesterday. If those journalists, who were clearly identifiable, were known to no longer be near Kyiv, people would have shouted about it by now.
Many of the MPs in Ukraine even sat yesterday to pass motions.
I think it is highly unlikely that it will happen. Putin wants to win this, not have world destroyed.
It massively sucks for Ukraine and Ukrainians, but I think that NATO/US has been spot on so far. No reckless decisions that escalate the situation towards uncharted territory, heavily sanctioning the Russian economy, and sending a shitload of weapons to Ukraine.
There needs to be a new law in place 69 is the oldest age at which you can still become president, I mean if you get two terms you will still be an old fart at the end with 77 but the candidate's age in the last election was abysmal 74, 77 and 78? For the love of god, just retire.
Oh I don’t deny that propaganda works in politics very much so, and I know it first hand trust me. However, when they support pure evil like killing people you can no longer hide behind the propaganda excuse and have to bear the responsibility.
Both the US B61 and the UK WE177 air launched gravity bombs are Hydrogen Thermonuclear variety.
The WE177 are no longer used by the RAF.
But the B61 is still in use and is also used by Germany on their Tornado nuclear capable bombers.
There should not be such a law. Plenty of incredibly smart people who are much older (the likes of Warren Buffet or Leonard Susskind for example).
People just should not vote for the likes of Biden. At the same time, it is clear that Biden is just a puppet, and so far so good.
I'm honestly a bit surprised the DEFCON level didn't get increased in response. It's kind of like dealing with a child though, if you give them attention when they misbehave you just encourage them to do it more.
