Read up on Toba. The effects of shutting down sunlight for years, expelling massive quantities of SO2, ash covering global crops/rain forests/plains, etc.Yeah it would be absolutely devastating: It would have disastrous effects on weather patterns, plant and animal life and even if we invaded Russia, it'd be irrelevant.
BTW: The idea the Russians had claimed about nuking Yellowstone was that it would set in motion a positive feedback loop that would activate all volcanoes along the Pacific Rim. The thing is that Russia has a side on the Pacific Ocean which would mean they'd be pulverized too even if we didn't fire back (and we could definitely get our weapons off before theirs hit). They might as well just blow their own brains out.
Actually, that kind of got me reading up on major volcanic eruptions...Read up on Toba. The effects of shutting down sunlight for years, expelling massive quantities of SO2, ash covering global crops/rain forests/plains, etc.
I was not suggesting China wanted military involvement in Ukraine either.My point was that they're not interested in military involvement in Ukraine -- obviously. No one said they weren't looking to stand astride the global stage.
Not necessarilya Yellowstone eruption would be mass extinction event globally - similar to Toba 70,000 years ago. We would be distinctive only by the magnitude of ash deposits.
Good grief...is Kadyrov channeling his inner Bond villain? Will the next photo show him with a white long-haired cat?
I don't think that has ever put anything up apart from OptimisticFunny how @blueskies invariably gives me an "optimistic" flag, but won't do any discussion here. Weak troll is muy weak. Show up with some thinking, brotha.
Well... They - who? The voices of Ukrainians and Qirimlar (Crimean Tatars) were not heard. Actually, many Crimean Tatars supported the Allies.They weren't saying this the 1850s when Queen Victoria was on the throne. I expect they were cursing her name in Odessa and Sevastopol. But my enemy's enemy is my friend.

We always forget about the Tartars and how badly Russian treated them in Crimea. That must be on Turkey's mind when Russian seized Crimea in 2014.Well... They - who? The voices of Ukrainians and Qirimlar (Crimean Tatars) were not heard. Actually, many Crimean Tatars supported the Allies.
What is this? White phosphorus attack?They do to Bakmut what they have done to Mariupol last year. Recorded by SOF operators today.

Yes.What is this? White phosphorus attack?
And that is due purely to weak leadership in every country right now. There are no Churchills nowadays. That's the scariest part of all, no leadership in anyplace that matters.
China will be watching for any weaknesses in US designed HIMARS systems. If the Russians can jam it, the Chinese will too.Russia's jamming of US-provided rocket systems complicates Ukraine's war effort

More than a few. We all think of the Dardanelles, others the Bengal famine. For me, it's the sending of Force Z on a suicide mission and selling out Poland at Yalta - the whole reason Britain declared war in the first place.And do not forget that prior to being PM Churchill was responsible for at least one British embarrassment.
I've been seeing a recent swarm of "Russia jamming U.S. HIMARS" or "Russia jamming U.S. JADAMs" articles and they all seem to come from one source.Russia's jamming of US-provided rocket systems complicates Ukraine's war effort
