Russia Moves 100 Nuclear Weapons Into Northern Waters After Vladimir Putin Threatens Nuclear War Rea

[Purveyor]

Russia has moved more than 100 nuclear warheads into northern waters, just weeks after President Vladimir Putin reportedly threatened to deploy nuclear weapons in Ukraine if the conflict continued.

The massive movement of nuclear weapons was uncovered by the Bureau of Arms Control with the U.S. Department of State, which released the latest exchange of data under the New START treaty.

The data showed that Russia have 1,643 deployed warheads, up from 1,400 a year ago. The list did not show exactly where Russia was moving the nuclear warheads, but Barents Observer noted that most are headed to two Northern fleet submarines.

“Those two alone can hold 192 warheads, but since the increase, according to the official figures, is 131 since last information exchange in March, the two submarines are likely not fully loaded,” the report noted.

I post, you decide...

1. The world convinced Ukraine to give up their nukes after the break up of the Soviet Union

I bet Ukraine is regretting that decision now.

Looks like Putin wants a new nuclear arms race.

Snowden still in Russia?

2. If they were smart, they have some hidden

We can only hope.

3. Wait, are we DU'ers hoping for nuclear proliferation, now?

I must have missed several memos.

4. The only way to defend your country

against big powers is to have nukes.

Notice how the US hasn't attacked North Korea recently?

MAD works.

I wouldn't blame Ukraine and Iran if they nuked up.

5. But the US hadn't attacked North Korea since 1953.

North Korea's claim of nuclear ability is... somewhat more recent.

6. Remember when Bush declared war on the axs of evil?

You better believe the US was itching for war there.

Although the US does prefer to attack Muslim countries in the Middle East and Africa. Taking out a country like North Korea would have been a real possibility IMO.

I can assure you that the US would have never touched Iraq if they actually had nukes.

The lesson?

Nuke up or face possible destruction.

Ukraine and Iran hear the message loud and clear.

7. "Remember when Bush declared war on the axis of evil?"

No, I do not.
I do remember when he called some countries that circa Jan 2002....Iran, North Korea and Iraq...we had a war with Iraq about a year later.

9. Which is funny since DU'ers were saying Obama shouldn't have won the Nobel Peace Prize

(not you) when that was actually one of the reasons he did. I think we have some pretty ignorant people on this board.

8. Humans suck no matter what country their from

Egos and nuclear warheads go hand in hand. We are acting like kids on a playground, if you do this I will do that!
Our species has always had battles but death and distruction stayed in the general area.
Today's world a nuclear war would pretty much finish the world we know today and for eons.
Yet countries continue to bluster and threaten.
As I said humans suck and I don't have much hope that some idiot will someday set the first one off to be followed by others.

10. OMG it is the US's fault

Yes, we are using mind control to make them move their nuclear weapons. We are SO sorry Vladmir.
