The United States of America and its western allies received a “double” threat of a Russian nuclear attack.
This is a doomsday scenario that could wipe out not just the West and Russia, but all of mankind. The threat came simultaneously from Putin and his top global propagandist.
Putin Vows ‘Lightening Strike’ This Time
The brand-new brandishing of Russia’s vast nuclear arsenal feels like nothing short of a flashback to the hottest days of the Cold War.
Also, it comes as Putin’s highly flawed military continues to be failing miserably in its task to conquer Ukraine for his wannabe neo-Soviet Russian empire.
Against this backdrop, on Wednesday, Putin gave a menacing new speech with a thinly veiled nuclear war threat against the West.
Speaking before the legislature of St. Petersburg, Putin declared if “someone interferes from the outside” in the war in Ukraine, that is going to present an “unacceptable strategic threat” to Moscow.
That is why potential adversaries must know Russia’s “response will be lightning-fast,” the Moscow tyrant stated.
He added his regime has the necessary weapons “for this” and Russia isn’t going to “boast, either.” Instead, it is just going to “use them.”
Observers have noted Putin didn’t mention the word “nuclear,” leading some to conclude he might have meant “lower-level” weapons, such as non-nuclear-armed hypersonic missiles.
Putin needs to be gone before he kills us all.

Americans ‘Will Just Croak’, Russians ‘Will Go to Heaven’
A far more direct nuclear war threat against the West came from Margarita Simonyan, the long-time editor-in-chief of RT, formerly Russia Today.
Russia Today is an English-language Russian state propaganda TV network trying to brainwash audiences in the United States and other western nations.
Simonyan has long been known as a lavishly paid Putin regime extremist. On Wednesday, she claimed the bloody autocrat would rather start a nuclear war that will destroy humanity than accept defeat in his utterly botched war to conquer Ukraine.
In her words, this “most incredible outcome” – of MAD (mutually assured destruction) is “more probable” than the alternative “course of events.”
Simonyan added this is her “horror.” However, “on the other hand”, if that happens, Russians “will go to heaven”, while Americans and the West “will simply croak.”
She was famously reiterating a quote by Putin himself from several years back when he said a nuclear war with the West will create “140 million martyrs”, i.e. the population of Russia, while the Westerns are just going to “die.”
To wrap up her threatening message, Simonyan declared semi-grinningly that “we are all” going to “die someday.”
Her threat arrived after, earlier this week, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and another top Putin propagandist, Vladimir Solovyov, also made nuclear war threats against the backdrop of the Ukraine war.
Putin's chief propagandist Simonyan says on TV, Russia starts global thermonuclear war if it loses conventional war in Ukraine. This is exactly what I said many times: it is not about what we do. Russia discovered this threat and will play it all the time. pic.twitter.com/zmlvgodvDZ

Editor-in-chief of Russian state media RT, Margarita Simonyan, has says Russia has now 2 options: Defeat in Ukraine or World War III starts.
Simonyan predicts that Putin will go the route of World War III and use nukes.
So that’s a hard pass to Russia calming its rhetoric?!

Top Kremlin propagandists, head of RT Margarita Simonyan & Vladimir Solovyov, see themselves as the biggest victims of Putin's war against Ukraine. They criticize the Russians who left the country and jointly agree that Simonyan is better (and younger) than the Queen of England. pic.twitter.com/5j2g3c7x8A
