Putin orders nuclear deterrent forces status raised to ‘special combat readiness’
When you back a rabid dog into a corner...
Russian President Vladimir Putin raised the alert status for his nuclear forces to "special regime of combat duty" as Russia and Ukraine battle for the fourth day.
Putin ordered the Russian defense minister and the chief of the military's General Staff to put the nuclear deterrent forces in a "special regime of combat duty." The move signals tensions could boil over into a nuclear war.
Wow! He must be seeing the numbers showing his attacks are falling apart. Ukraine has finally agreed to talks on the Belarus border. Will we see Vlad withdraw? The US intelligence community says that Russia hasn't achieved any of their initial invasion goals. And massive peace protests are still going on across Russia.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
As I said in another post, what if Putin has health or mental issues and wants to go out with a bang? The new feminized and weakened west didn't think very far ahead and definitely haven't learned from history. I don't think many people understand how quickly this world can be sent into chaos and destruction.
Meanwhile Biden's DOJ has dropped the China Initiative that Trump started. I guess the theft of our intellectual property, including weapons technology, isn't a big deal to the Biden administration. How many different ways can these inept people find to accelerate our demise?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
Wonder if Vladimir might use a tactical nuke in Ukraine just to show who is boss.
The EU now says they will supply Ukraine with combat aircraft. The Ukrainian border with Poland will be a key supply line.
