Chernobyl?

Ruh roh.

Maybe the leader of the free world, the world’s lone superpower, should at least challenge the UN to fulfill its purpose and condemn foreign incursions into Ukraine.

Or not.

“which could be uranium 235”

Or, it could be something else, but U235 sounds scarier than Pm237 or Ba133.

This is probably a mafia deal gone bad. Transnistria is one of the great dump holes in all of Europe. Lots of crime, trafficking, etc.

Russian FSB has a lot of experience blowing things up. I don’t think they need a dirty bomb to kill a lot of people.

Putin is trying to get a feel for just how far and how fast he can push this. He has almost total support at home and his psyops is working well in the West. Can he sell an attempted nuclear attack from the Ukraine? He’s sold a lot of Americans and Europeans with the fascist Ukraine when that’s what he is the ultranationalist / crony capitalist.

Special political interests have been lying to us about the effects of nuclear weapons. Nuclear war is much more survivable than presented in their false scenarios! Have a look at the effects of one of the most powerful warheads--warheads that will not be used, because much smaller yields are much more practical (costs, delivery, concealment, lack of extra effects with higher yields, etc.).

EFFECTS OF THE EXPLOSION OF A THERMO-NUCLEAR BOMB

This must be verified, and then traced to the source.

U-235 is not just laying around in Transneistria (Transwhatever).

It's EXTREMELY important we know where this came from, with certainty.

If the report is even true.
