Russia ‘moves ATOMIC mortar that fires nukes to border' as war fears mount

CHILLING images are said to show nuclear cannon being sent to Russia’s border with Ukraine as renewed conflict threatens to erupt into all-out war. At least six 2S4 Tyulpan self-propelled mor…

I hate like heck for bad things to happen, it just really sucks for the victims, but I can't help but think that the bright side to all of this is that an international crisis might get Biden focused elsewhere so that he quits "fixing" our problems. Sad commentary on how pathetic our government is.

China will invade Taiwan as Russia invades Ukraine.We will do nothing.

 

[rosejm]

If you can hear this, we can be friends

 

[DadSmith]

Ukraine better get with NATO for help. America will watch the war and Biden will pray for them he's already made millions off them already.

 

[Brambo]

We have enough problems in our country. We use to be the WORLD POLICE, but yet we defund our own??

I dug deep into the life savings for some much needed gear not only because of this but everything else going on.

World is at a tipping point now that nobody takes the US seriously anymore.
Russia will move on Ukraine, and China will move on Taiwan. Meanwhile everyone will be demanding Biden send troops while he's busy drooling over pictures of little girls.

Spot on. 4/9/2021 I’ve heard military updates are talking China getting ready to move on Taiwan. And Russia IS moving on Ukraine. I’m sure they have Arab friends bolstering their positions too.

 

[Tombs]

I think there will likely be another front in the event Russia moves on Ukraine. Not only will you have that and China going for Taiwan...

North Korean is absolutely going to decide that's the perfect time to make moves on South Korea. Wouldn't be surprised to see a Pakistan/India conflict kick off hard either. I have no idea about the middle east, but it's hard to imagine someone wouldn't try to capitalize on the situation.

Gee, the world really thought Trump was a clown.

Meanwhile, 3 months into Biden's first term, and we're very likely to see WW3 kick off because of how incompetent he is. I'm sure we'll be well equipped to fight this new war with our servicemen who only joined for college, who can't figure out their gender, and pregnant women.

But at least orange man is gone.

This situation is precisely why a lot of folks don't believe every single person should be able to vote, and I completely agree.

The past 18 months would have made for a fascinating movie back in the 90's, I'm not sure there was anyone who could have imagined where we are today back then. It is nuts.

I believe they made a TV series called Amerika in the late 80's that might come close. I believe kris Kristopherson was in it. Haven't seen it in a long time but iirc it kind of portrayed today's America.

 

[Magyars]

I've been beating the drum for a while now that we need to organize, or else we'll all be way behind the curve when the shoe drops.

But we're too busy on here arguing over trivial minutiae that will be of no consequence when the time comes.

I think your correct....sooooo.....what's the next step?

Complete the transition of the Republican Party into the party of the people. Get and maintain control of your state party and squeeze out the squishes, working across the aisle is not a needed skill set right now and some pols don't know when to quit. Get that state party to enact laws as needed to shore up voter ID/election security

Then either elect Trump 47 if he runs or elect the man most like him in the primaries. If we focus on every candidates minor flaws we merely become the new libertarian party peaking at 4%

America First, and dissenters are free to join some other party, we need to have as united a voice as our opposition does and meet them toe to toe. For now, the best organization should still be political organization because that pathway has been constrained but not closed off

Speaking to this idea, Jeb Bush wrote an op-ed for CNN that is up today. Can you spot the danger in the Chamber o' Congress wing trying to rehabilitate/reposition him to be a contender? Can you see why the CoC wing needs to be driven into the wasteland? If we can't speak with one voice we will never be heard, and we cannot afford the luxury of trying to please everyone. Time for Republicans to actually stand for something other than country club sensibilities

Make sure you get what you like, otherwise you will have to like what you get

And, China has moved (and is moving) troops into Iran, which of course means they have to move in the means to protect and support them. Like Russia in Syria.

That's interesting, I wonder what they will be targeting.

Israel is quite a bit away. If the US is tied up with other conflicts, the only thing that makes sense to me is that they'd go for Iraq.

 

[T.Lex]

My prediction: that ain't gonna happen.

Well, I sit corrected, sorta.

Apparently, 15 days ago (which is kinda wild) the US notified Turkey of the intent to send 2 USN ships (unspecified) into the Black Sea.

Turkey says U.S. warships to deploy in Black Sea until May 4

The United States has informed Turkey that two of its warships will pass through Turkish straits to be deployed in the Black Sea until May 4, Ankara said on Friday, as Russia has bulked up its military forces on Ukraine's eastern border.

www.reuters.com

“A notice was sent to us 15 days ago via diplomatic channels that two U.S. warships would pass to the Black Sea in line with the Montreux Convention. The ships will remain in the Black Sea until May 4,” Turkey’s foreign ministry said.

So, there's that.

Israel Bracing For Iran To Possibly Strike From Their Own Territory

Yoav Limor Israel Hayom's defense reporter who exposed this development opines that "it's safe to assume Iran will not let this attack go unanswered."

Isn’t that 2%?

I wonder if a certain group of folks in Tampa Florida have a plan on the shelf for this contingency.
