US May Help Ukraine Launch An Offensive On Crimea by Caitlin Johnstone published on 2023-01-19T03:41:52Z Decamp writes that "The lessening concern about Putin resorting to nukes appears to be based only on the fact that he hasn’t used any up to this point." But this is as logical as believing that it is safe and wise to jump even harder on the sleeping bear you've been jumping on just because the bear hasn't woken up yet. The assumption that because a disaster has not happened in the past it will not happen in the future is a type of fallacious reasoning known as normalcy bias. The assumption that because a disaster has not happened in the past it will not happen in the future, even though you keep doing things to make it increasingly likely, is just being a fucking idiot. It's like Wile E Coyote jumping up and down on the land mine until it explodes because it didn't explode when the Roadrunner ran over it. Reading by Tim Foley. Genre News & Politics Comment by Edo Visconte IF Ukraine gets any more victories They have to defeat the entire army in Russia first Good luck with that. Maybe then Mr Putin is done. 2023-01-28T17:57:11Z Comment by Bfranklin1215.7 Putin is done. Nukes won't help them. Ukraine has dirty bombs and just one of them would kill tens of thousands in Moscow and afterward it would be uninhabitable. 5Kg canisters were used during the Soviet times to kill vermin and insects in Russian and Ukraine graineries. It wouldn't take much to split one open above Moscow. Putin knows that using nukes would be retaliated with such incredible force that Russia would not exist as it does under him now. When this was is over and Ukraine has back the Crimea, Iran will be next. 2023-01-20T05:13:05Z
