A few lads in research stations in Antarctica is all that would be left.
Hmmmmmm, not sure if serious. Don't think you've thought that one through.
Russian Embassy in Dublin
I think you've been watching too many movies to be honest.
Drop an atomic bomb on Moscow you say, do you not realise a bomb like that would kill thousands of ordinary Russians living in the city?
Once nukes are fired from US, UK etc, Russia will know pretty immediately and retaliate. You can't really surprise nuke people, assuming you even knew all their sites. As soon as one goes up, they'll all start going up and we're all fecked then even if we're not a target
Before you could get them all he'd have fired off many of them and wiped out most of USA and Western Europe. That would just be the reductio ad absurdum of 'destroying the village to save it.'
Eh not up to Ireland. We have no need to get involved. Up to US, UK, France, Germany to wipe him out.
Off you go, we'll have a whip around for a ticket and you can 'step up'
Ukraine has huge amount of rape seed. One of the biggest producers. This will drive the price of Vegetable Oil, and food way up.
Have you heard yourself. Ireland cannot even defend it's own airspace.
He forget to duck
And instead of investing in Nuclear, the Germans and others decided to close down reactors and become more dependent on Fossil fuels.
Real prescient move there...
RAI said it was an "accident" because of "Piloting error".
He obviously flew into a missile....
That's impossible. Russia has probably the most robust Second Strike capability in the world. Between a fleet of ballistic missile submarines, mobile land-based ICBM launchers, hardened silos and the autonomous Perimetr/"Dead Hand" system to ensure a retaliatory nuclear strike even if the political and military leadership is wiped out, there's not a snowball's chance in hell of disabling Russia's nuclear arsenal.
Russia has 6,200+ nuclear weapons.
You can't just take them out as if it's a couple of airports.
And the response would be immediate, too.
Russian disinformation. Not even once.
Who cares about gas, Germany should be shutting it down themselves, tell him to shove it up his a s s.
Solutions will be found
No , the Russians blew up several arms depots in the Czech republic over the last few years ,
The Czechs removed a statue of a Russian soldier recently and there was threats from Moscow
I think what Russia is doing to Ukraine is totally unacceptable and putin will have to answer for these crimes.
However if NATO had stayed away from Ukraine and Ukraine stayed as a buffer country between NATO and Russia would we be where we are now?
I doubt it? Maybe I’m wrong?
Start dropping atomic bombs now is it? For heavens sake pure nonsense, actions like this would have unintended consequences of catastrophic proportions
Nuclear weapons being used is not something to be advocated. That is a door that once opened can't easily be closed and would lead to devastating consequences for all sides.
I'm old enough to remember the Cold War and the fear of nuclear conflict. We may well end up with another Iron Curtain when Putin is done with his "adventures" but nuclear warfare is not a road we want to go down.
On Sky News yer one just asked a Ukrainian guy how people are feeling
Fantastic he says. You can imagine how people are feeling when they see tanks moving into their cities.
Just watched that too, a great example of Eastern European deadpan sarcasm. "Fan-tazz-tic"
Err...it has happened before.... If all with same host pretty easy thing to happen
Always fascinated by the need to put these things out. Everyone knows they are lying, why bother coming up with a story. Why bother putting it out in Ireland even when I doubt they care if we get involved or not. Just a copy pasta across all embassies or maybe they were bored and needed to show loyalty?
Shameless, horrible cnuts
Apparently the Czech republic has stopped granting Visa's to Russian citizens. I thought they were close to Russia....
Vlad has determined he does not need the west anymore. Russia's future is South and East. He is BFFs with China, they'll always do business with the Arab states, he met with Pakistan today, good relations with India.
He can strangle the EU with gas supply issues. Which will create strife internally within Europe.
He has asserted himself as the Alpha-Dog of Region.
Well it is already fully constructed (from what I've read) isn't it, so unless they blow it up or something...(?)
I think it unlikely any gas will be flowing through it for forseeable future now.
Ya, start a nuclear war, that'll work.
