Nato knows what nuclear war can do imagine New York city gone wiped out from earth.

Imagine London gone.

Chelsea, Manchester united gone.

Moscow gone

They know the impact yet they act like they own the world.

They better follow peace before they all die together.

And when what you listed is gone, Moscow will be standing I guess, Leningrad will also be standing abi? Russia cannot face the combined armies of NATO. The idiot in Russia knows that. His economy is already crippled and will soon run out of money. He has already set Russia back another 100 years. Russia will pay for every building damaged by their missile in Ukraine. Let him keep on grandstanding. Time will tell

Some comments dey lay bare many things o. Its pathetic

You’re the one with a manipulated skull as a result of western Media bullishit you’ve swallowed.
Was there no proposal before war started ? What did the comedian do about it ?
So you expect Russia to fold her arms and allow Ukraine romance NATO to hurt Them on a long run?

When did the United States attacked CUBA did Cuba strike the United States first ?
Ukraine should have agreed to stay Neutral to live in peace .

Same way Libyans clamored for the western democracy and oust Gafaffi that’s how Ukraine wanted a Anti Russian government I hope they’re enjoying it now. Anyone who fails to use his head someone will use it for you .

If Russia was Belarus I’m 101% sure NATO Would rolled out tanks and pounce on them . But Russia is their mate so they’ve to thread with caution same thing the comedian could have done. If NATO is serious they would break rules to admit Ukraine but they’re playing hide and seek with them and the comedian is busy destroying his country .

Russia is not NATO's mate.

Not in economy of military strength

That's why Putin is furious of Ukraine joining

USA doesn't have?
Japan doesn't have?
Britain doesn't have?
Most European countries too have, how many live do u think Russia has if all these countries fire nuclear to that their one and only country?

So you did not see where I mentioned Moscow gone.

I never said they don't have it.

Russian Anti-Satellite Weapons will disengage NATO from communication and everything. NATO Military Satellites will be taken down very quick and fast by Russian Military. When this is done, NATO won't be able to communicate to its military and command centers. Russia will result to Hypersonile weapons to infitrate NATO air defense systems. NATO will become so vulnerable. They know this and they are afraid. Putin is fully ready for an all-out-war with NATO. They should come out and fight.

Exactly. You know the game plan.

A very reasonable comment. Only those who have read, digest and understand the laws of power possess quality leadership traits. Same gimmicks was adopted by US in WW2 and no one knew they had atomic bombs when the likes of Nazis army were boasting they have produced ballistic missiles. Nagazaki and Hiroshima still plays in the mind of veterans.

I hope it comes to the point where nuclear warlords will be release by the west and east because that will almost be like rapture.

There is no solution to chemical or biological weapons..

Even if you shoot down the missiles carrying the biological weapon the atmosphere will drop the content to the population.

Realist12:
It's funny how the west are avoiding a war on their home ground, but are encouraging Zelenski and supporting him to destroy his home. We all have to know our real enemies.

I have said repeatedly that NATO is scared of Russia. The reason why they're using Ukraine against Russia is because most Ukrainians genetically are also Russians and they share the same fighting spirit. And this is basically a campaign, to try to weaken Russia militarily whilst using propaganda war to smear Russian military and claim it's weak. They set tasks the Russians never set (like claim Russia said it will take over Ukraine in 3 days) then claim Russians are losing and post all kinds of propaganda fraud videoes all over social media.

However, Russians are the grandmasters of chess and they're always 2 steps ahead. Hence they're not that committed to full blown war against Ukraine. Also, where NATO shot itself in the foot is that: Russians are gaining valuable experience from this military operation that no other country can gain without being in the same position and Russian forces are adapting military tactics whilst they're also becoming war hardened. You don't learn that by fighting farmers with rusty AK47 and RPGs that don't shoot back in Iraq and Afghanistan - you learn by fighting professional conventional forces that can shoot back. And that's something that will come handy if and when NATO forces engage Russians.

Let me also take you down memory lane to the greatest military units ever - it was the Soviet army units led by Field Marshal Zhukov (arguably the greatest military general ever) that fought in Stalingrad and that later conquered Berlin and hoisted the Soviet flag there during Operation August Storm in WW2. Zhukov had previously led the Soviet army in the counteroffensive that defeated the Imperial Japanese army on the eve of WW2 in 1939 in Manchurian. And the valuable lessons he and his units learnt from there - was very instrumental in Operation August Storm which decided WW2 and led to the defeat of Nazi Germany and Hitler. Operation August Storm is arguably one of the greatest military camapaigns ever. This looks like history is repeating itself.

As for Ukrainians: the CIA has been in the western part of that country since 1945 and they have been grooming for this day, for a long time. Hence a lot of sensible American diplomats, academics and military generals have been warning the dark forces in the US since the 1950s to leave Ukraine alone. Too bad Ukrainians decided to become cannon fodders for overzealous American globalists and they allowed their country to be used as a battlefield. The country will never recover from this war - especially with the billions of aids western countries are pumping in because they have to pay back those billions one way or the other when the smoke clears. Especially if western countries don't achieve their objectives.

But Russia is pushing for war with NATO.


In Putin's mind, whenever He mentions Nuke the world will tremble at His feet; A foolish bully is what Putin is.
But a whole NATO bombing small countries isn't bully?. You expect Russia to face 30 countries at ones with just guns. Encircling Russia is not bullying? Australia is crying all over the place now simply because Solomon Island signed security pact with China saying its national security having them at their back yard. But having NATO at Russias back yard isn't national security right?

Imagine how people left the main cause of the problem to blame the man that is defending himself and his people.

Ukraine didn't evade anybody,, Russia did...But people still find a way to blame the president...Like He should have folded his hands and watch Russians take over his country...

Or Ukraine cannot chose who to and who not to mingle with because they border a country who's president is power drunk..... Like because my papa dey malice people, make I join the malice wey nor benefit my papa...rubbbisshhhhh...

Before I went to sleep, my wife said to me: This Russia is such a bad country, If Ukraine wants to join Nato, it is their business and freedom, Russia has no right to intervene, this is just an excuse for Russia to invade Ukarine.

So I said nothing, I just went to the kitchen and took a knife to bedside, then I said: Let’s go to sleep.

My wife looked at me with her wide eyes: What the heck are you doing, sleeping with a knife?!?!

I said: No worry, let’s go to sleep. Beside, sleeping with a knife is none of your business and it is my freedom.

My wife said: How can I sleep when you are sleeping with a knife? What if you accidentally cut me?

I said: Well, You don’t even trust your own husband, how can you expect Russia to trust Ukraine? Me sleeping with a knife is like Ukraine joining the Nato.

Oga, hypersonic this and that only freaks little children like you... This system has always been around for decades.. All icbm runs in it

The most advanced hypersonic system is owned by the US.. It uses scramjet.. What Russia and the China has are glides... Only the US has tested this system successfully


All this taking down satellites systems and. Losing communication is because you are not educated to where who has done aht and who is hyping

All of Russia defense system is opened presently to the US government through Google

US aircraft has landed in Ukraine, if Russia believes in all this scrap you wrote let them bomb the plan... It is on the tarmac open to the sky and offloading war equipment promised by the US president

Go to twitter or where u can reach Russia and inform them incase they didn't listen to the press release

Says who ? If they’re not Russia’s mate NATO would’ve carpet bombed them . No matter how you try to sound sentimental they’re mates that’s why what ever sanctions they impose on Russia they suffer it to. They could have order a No flight zone but they can’t because they’re scared. You can’t be scared of someone who doesn’t pose a threat . Let common sense do the reasoning instead of sentiments.

Louder pls . They know the truth yet they hide from it.
Ukraine isn't at par with Russia on any level least of all militarily..
What you're seeing is a coordinated effort by the US and EU feeding Ukraine with weapons and Intel(including Foreign mercs) to fight the Russian forces.
Think for a moment.. if Russia wanted Ukraine destroyed.. it can't take them more than two weeks..
This one they're doing is military exercise and rightly so.. they've been restrained from going all out..
