LLAW’s All Things Nuclear Concerns and What to do About It . . .

If Burevestnik doomsday winged rocket, nicknamed the “Flying Chernobyl ” which has an “unlimited range”, emits radioactive exhaust, and apparently avoids defense systems such as Trump’s “Golden Dome” is what Putin claims it to be the rest of the “nuclear world” must seriously consider abolishing their own nuclear weapons and beg for “no more wars”.

Meanwhile, while bragging about his new missile, Putin continues to commit International War Crimes by bombing Kyiv residential towers. and, if true, apparently our own maniacal president has declared that we don’t need to declare war or laws to determine and/or prevent such inhumane crimes — we will just “kill” those who bring drugs into the USA according to the following comment . . .

I don’t think we’re necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war. I think we’re just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We’re going to kill them. They’re going to be, like, dead.” -President of the United States of America

Note: I have not “fact-checked” the above statement claimed to be from Trump. ~llaw

So what can we do? We must rid ourselves of Trump’s sycophants and administration, prosecute and imprison him and the rest of them for their crimes so that we can return to living by our Constitution, lay down our nuclear arms, shake hands with ourselves and the rest of the world, and then “fight” for a united peaceful world.

Vladimir Putin issues chilling WW3 threat to West in boast on new weapon

The dictator boasted he has the ‘highest level’ nuclear forces following tests of the ‘Flying Chernobyl’ missile, named becuase it emits radioactive exhaust from its unshielded reactor

Vladimir Putin has issued threats to the west as he revealed his new “unstoppable” nuclear missile nicknamed “Flying Chernobyl ” has completed tests.

The Russian dictator boasted he now has the “highest level” nuclear forces in the world and in a chilling World War Three warning, he revealed a “successful” secret flight on October 21 of the Burevestnik doomsday winged rocket which has an “unlimited range”.

Putin discusses the nuclear-powered atomic missile in a visit to a military command post where he received briefings on the Ukrainian frontline from Russia ’s most senior general, Valery Gerasimov, 70.

Meanwhile Russian forces unleashed a barbaric overnight attack on Kyiv hitting residential towers and killing at least three and wounding almost 30, including seven children.

Boasting of nuclear war drills staged last week, in defiance of Donald Trump ’s latest calls for peace, Putin said: “The modernity of our….nuclear deterrent forces, is at the highest level. Well, it would probably be no exaggeration to say that it is at a higher level than all nuclear states.”

He said the test had been undertaken on a missile intended to fly for days at a time and able to counter all current Western defences.

“We’re talking about testing the Burevestnik nuclear-powered cruise missile with an unlimited range,” he said. “As far as I understand, the key objectives have now been achieved.”

Gerasimov revealed the Burevestnik – aka Flying Chernobyl – was tested on October 21.

“The missile flew for several hours, covering a distance of 14,000 kilometres [8,700 miles],” he said. And that’s not the limit. It is nuclear-powered.

“And the technical characteristics of the Burevestnik generally allow it to be used with guaranteed accuracy against highly protected targets at any distance. Furthermore, during the flight, the missile performed all the prescribed vertical and horizontal manoeuvres, demonstrating its high capabilities for evading missile and air defence systems.”

It flew for 15 hours non stop which is “not the limit”, he told a smirking Putin, 73, who first announced plans for the Burevestnik seven years ago. The previous test in 2022 only lasted two minutes.

He claimed Russian scientists had achieved the impossible following successful weapons tests in the arctic of the new missile, nicknamed “Flying Chernobyl” because it emits radioactive exhaust due to its unshielded or partially shielded reactor, raising ecological and safety concerns.

Putin admitted the Burevestnik is not yet ready for combat use but aimed to frighten the West as he made clear his troops are continuing the war in Ukraine, with a refusal to put an end date on the conflict.

Meanwhile in Kyiv, fires raged in the high-rises as rescuers sought to save residents from the deadly strikes which came as Putin’s envoy in the US, Kiril Dmitriev, sickeningly sought to blame Ukrainian air defences for strikes on its own civilians.

“Sometimes Ukrainian air defence missiles miss their targets,” he claimed, referring to the attack which saw Putin’s drones terrorizing ordinary Ukrainian families in several districts of Kyiv, hitting nine-storey and 16-floor towers.

A total of three were killed and 29 wounded. Volodymyr Zelensky denounced the new attacks, saying: “Every strike by Russia is an attempt to cause as much damage as possible to ordinary life. These are strikes on residential buildings, on our people, on children, on civilian infrastructure.
