Not really a bluff or not a bluff.
Everyone has forgotten, but about a week before the start of the SMO, a short cell phone video surfaced of two big nuclear mushroom clouds. The location was unknown but some suspected Siberia. I think I posted about it here.
As I interpret it, the message to TPTB (and to paraphrase Eric Swalwell) was: "Russia has nukes.Too many of them. But they're legit.”
That being said, I think Putin is 99% sure it will never come to that, and the message here is to Western citizens about the gravity of the situation, and how they need to put pressure of their governments to end this.
All explosions of sufficient heat/energy generate a mushroom cloud. They’re not unique to nuclear.
Then you should probably explain to us the context for why two enormous conventional explosions were set off in Siberia. Perhaps also link us to video of large conventional explosions for comparison of "not unique"-ness.
Did they?
Got a link of that footage?
Nuclear war but not in Ukraine (2/17/2022) (archive 3/12/2022)
Get it while it's hot, and make sure to download the MP4 linked to the big photo. The original TikTok is gone, and Jim Stone's original post is gone from his old server but it's still hosting the video. He's under tremendous pressure and that will certainly disappear in the future.
Put pressure on their governments? Why?
Because Putin won't lose, at a proxy war? Or because he has nukes?
Remind me again. How winning works?
Wake me up when Russia wins.
Yawn. If he has nukes, he'll use them to a win proxy war. Or he won't win much. Pressuring governments to let him win, is almost as tedious. It doesn't go to direct nuclear war unless he's prepared to lose. It of course drags into some other agreement. A game of proxy. Can't think of it, until somebody else loses. Except buy more electricity, Russia is charging far more for the gas.
