Russian officials routinely make saber-rattling remarks about Moscow’s nuclear posture. Sergei Shoigu, a former defense minister who now heads Russia’s powerful national security council, made his comments on April 24 in an interview with the TASS state news agency.

      I hope they don’t.

      But if they do, it has to absolutely guarantee the 100% complete and utter extinction of the Russian race.

      Because we have to set a precedent.

        Ah yes, genocide is always the answer.

        After all, we killed all the Germans Right?

          A: they committed genocide when they used a nuke

          2: we killed enough nazis that the rest of the Germans learned.

          If Russians couldn’t learn from the example of the Germans, then theyre beyond learning and a danger to the world.

      As much as the rhetoric of Russia is weak and bordering tragic comedy, they should really really not “bring it on”
