The insiders added that the organizers of the provocation hope that if successfully implemented, the “nuclear incident” will prompt an extremely negative reaction from the international community. As a result, Moscow will lose the support of many of its key partners, while the West will again try to raise the issue of depriving Russia of the status of a permanent member of the UN Security Council and ramp up its anti-Russian rhetoric, according to the sources.

Do you know what Russia really needs right now? A low-yield “dirty bomb” that scatters a small amount of nuclear material over several blocks somewhere in Ukraine. Radiating this small area in a city none of us have ever heard of will be so strategically important to them that they’d willingly do it despite it ensuring that all NATO countries would immediately join the war against them, leading to WW3. /s
It is being reported on many military channels that the Defence Minister of Russia has been in touch with his counterparts in USA, Turkey, France and UK and letting them know that Zelensky is threatening a dirty bomb. Russia is letting them know that Russia is aware of THEIR intentions. The problem with that is all nuclear bombs have a signature and very quickly could be identified as being Russian. Putin is not stupid. He has the SARMAT and the new Poseidon Sub - the Belgorod- ready to reciprocate. The SARMAT can travel the world in 35 minutes and it carries up to sixteen warheads which would target the ‘decision making centres’ which include Brussels, DC, Paris, London, etc. Each missile has a defence system that due to its speed and the height it travels, no system on earth can detect it. It also carries a system that can shoot down any enemy defence systems thrown at it. It has been tested. Then there are the two Military rockets launched in the last week. The world has no idea what they can do.
Then there is the Belgorod. BTW. This is ‘missing’ from its base but has been seen in the Arctic. It has missiles that can sit on the bottom of the ocean off coastlines for weeks. They can then be activated when required.
Putin is not the aggressor. At present, he is taking out the NAZI trash that have murdered 16,000 Russian speaking men women and children civilians in 9 years in the Donbas - the areas that overwhelmingly voted to move back under the protection of Russia.
Why do Ukraine with NATO (USA) supplied weapons still continue to target civilians. Is not the Kersch Bridge (Crimean) a civilian bridge? Is not the Nord Stream a civilian pipeline that provides heating and cooking for civilians? Both were targeted by Zelensky and the West. The ‘enquiry’ into it will not be released. Why? Because the USA are the culprits. The world knows that too. No sooner had agreed to Turkey to help them establish TurkStream where Turkey would become a gas hub for Europe. The US has already threatened Turkey with sanctions. Then the Saudi’s are going to join BRICS. And before the ink was dry, Biden was threatening SA.
Let me tell you, I am just absolutely THRILLED that my money was used to help Ukraine get their dirty bomb. I LOVE BEING A PART OF IT. Sarcasm, of course.
Just some pointers. The Sarmat has the declared "hypersonic" warheads. It's not clear if they can be detected or not, or whether they have stealth properties. (The B-2 can be detected at a distance, but its stealth properties make it difficult for any weapon system to lock onto it.) They are probably hard to detect, and if they duck below the local horizon (hills) they won't be seen. They will not have any weight or volume to spare for defense systems. They rely on low observability and maneuver to prevent interception.
The Belgorod is a purpose-designed system (I suspect for mass destruction of a carrier battle group) but its role in any geostrategic objective is obscure. It is a handy boogeyman, however. Certain kinds of missiles can be positioned like mines on the sea floor (e.g., the U.S. CAPTOR system), but not strategic nuclear weapons. Those are never left out of custody. People who imagine they can be left untended do not understand nuclear surety of control.
A "dirty bomb" would be a tricky thing to make and handle, but simple. Just take nuclear reactor waste fuel, grind it up, and put it in a big can with a burst charge. Not a nuclear device, but plenty of radioactive material. Dangerous to handle in its weapon configuration. I recall from early in this conflict stories about how Ukraine was noodling such a device in the bowels of the nuclear power plant at Energodar.
Why do the Ukrainians still target civilians? Because they are basically mad dogs and have no shame or restraint when it comes to blood lust. They have become so bold and open in front of the U.S. and Europe, exhibiting all their Nazi regalia and symbology, that they are on the edge of the genocidal counterpart to public sex acts.
As far as tactical nukes are concerned, Putin needs a handful of 5 kT neutron weapons. Minimal fallout. Very restricted blast effects. Nasty neutron radiation. We got rid of ours, but who knows what he may have up his sleeve?
Thanks for that. It’s true, we have no idea, only some. But Putin does not want a war, but due to the US wanting to place their own puppet in Russia, they will do anything for regime change. It’s been their MO for decades. This time they have met their match.
supposedly got rid of ours. Who knows the truth anymore?
If the thermonuclear component relied on the presence of tritium and deuterium, the bomb materials will have gone sour by now. Tritium has a half-life of 12.3 years. The larger bombs rely on the production of tritium by neutron activation of lithium, in lithium deuteride. Nuclear weapons are interesting. There is more maintenance than you would suppose.
Any nuclear war will be a fabrication.
If you listen to those reporting from the frontline and also Colonel Douglas MacGregor, we are within a hares breath of WW3. Many on here fear. when DEFCON levels are shown. Europe and Africa are at two. The USA has moved to 3. There is no number one because this means missiles have been launched.

I thought DEFCON 1 is missiles are being fueled, not necessarily launched.
Of course we are. The media says so. Fear is the dis-ease. Did we learn nothing from the propaganda of covid?
Like a good man said recently. Its only a crisis if you believe the false narrative. More psyop.
The literal plot of Sum of All Fears. Small nuclear bomb goes off in a cigarette vending machine at a football stadium in Baltimore. Terrorists make it look like Russia did it, which puts USA and Russia on nuclear collision course. But it was USA uranium in the bomb (Uranium One?). In the modern day sequel playing out in front of our eyes, it looks like Baltimore will be Ukraine instead.
That was Clinton's plan with the uranium one materials they skimmed from the sale to Russia. From what I gathered it was neutralized v
Don't forget the European neo nazis from the Sum of All Fears.
...and the Ukrainazis will be more than happy to oblige....
