The article focuses on dirty bombs, but I do not think that is correct. Such bombs are useful only in terrorist acts, not as strategic or tactical weapons. This is not to say the Ukrainian leadership and their Western masters are above terrorism, but that it is not a useful tool against the Russian military.

I would argue that they were in the process of constructing actual nuclear fission weapons at Chernobyl. That is, they did it there not because there were mildly radioactive materials for a dirty bomb laying around, but rather that the elevated background radiation masked the signature of fissile materials. These are remotely detectable, and they most assuredly would have been detected by the Russian GRU just across the border. The Russians found out anyway.

I think the article was off-target again in it's discussion of the nuclear football. I agree that the current Residency does not have control of it, but that system is used for issuing launch orders through the normal military chain of command. Obviously, this would do nothing more than initiate a nuclear WW3, while what they are looking for is advantage against the Russians.

What would be useful in this scenario are tactical nuclear devices. We can deduce that the Neo-Imperialists are either unwilling or unable (and I would guess the latter) to provide the Ukrainian military with finished nuclear weapons. We should note that Israel has such devices but is evidently unwilling to part with any of them at this time.

It seems clear to me that as jammed up as they are in Ukraine right now, they would have already used one in a false flag attack if they had even a single one available.
