That fellow was lucky to survive just losing a Thumb , thousands of people were instantly vaporized with 5,000 degree blast of heat with the very low yield Little Boy bomb.

Deterrent. A first strike by Russia for instance might target and destroy a good number of our weapons before they deploy. The idea is to have enough to still retaliate in force, no matter how heavy the preemptive first strike. Not to mention, a retaliation may involve targeting multiple other countries (and our main adversaries are nations with a lot of territory.)

It's not a pleasant thought, but there is a certain logic to it.

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I'm looking at this differently than the MSM's current narrative. The worldwide criminal cabal has used Ukraine to launder money for years. I think there's a whole lot more going on there than advertised, IMO.

Lot of mental gymnastics going on here, I'm not even going to attempt to decipher or rationalize.

Curious....who's "The Worldwide Criminal Cabal"?

Also, do you think Putin...who is to crooked Russian Oligarchs, what Roger Goodell is to NFL owners, is attempting to rid the world of money laundering by invading the Ukraine?

Asking for a friend.

Ok, I take it back. I'm attempting to decipher.

Nuclear weapons are the ONLY reason there hasn't been a WWIII for 77 years.

I believe this is the correct place on the forum for this discussion? 'WaterCooler Talk: Off Topics', no? Sorry, I just read Leon's 'no politics' rule. My fault.

Call me crazy, but the curtain is slowly being pulled open everyday to reveal who's been hiding in the shadows.

The Criminal Cabal consists of, among others, the Central Bankers, the WEF and Klaus Schwab, the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers, and the Windsors (some would include the Vatican on this list, to my initial surprise as I'm Catholic).

The Buffett, Soros, Gates, Bloomberg, Bezos, Zuckerberg, and the 'political leader' type folks in our world are simply their foot soldiers carrying out and pushing their agenda towards a One World Government/Global Reset, a cashless Digital Currency, population control, etc.

IMO this is more about what's happening in the world than flat out politics. Please try to steer clear of outright political statements. And for anyone not wanting this stuff on the forum, don't read it.

Don't worry that post is not political. You did leave the reptilian and grey alien overlords off your list. Also needed a random reference to bigfoot being real.

Of course THEY don't want anyone to know about the reptilians.

You forgot Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marjorie Taylor Green, Elise Stefanik, and so on. Comrade Vladimir Putin, how could you forget him? He goes to the top of the list, yes?

I believe you must have missed his post. I think the phrases "among others" and "and the 'political leader' type folks" allows room for more.

No, I read his post, and he listed the typical left-wing boogeymen. I was wondering if he viewed the right-wing boogeymen the same way. I'm surprised you didn't notice that.
