6.7 Billion People Could Die in a Russia vs. U.S. Nuclear War
Nuclear War Means Earth Is Changed Forever
Nuclear war suddenly seems more relevant than at any point since the 1980s. Russia, the steward of the world’s largest nuclear weapon stockpile, is engaged in open conflict with Ukraine, while casually threatening to use a tactical nuclear weapon. North Korea, the world’s most recent nation to attain nuclear weapons, is also openly threatening to use its nuclear weapons.
U.S. President Joe Biden is speaking in terms of a pending ‘armageddon,’ while comparing the current situation to the Cuban Missile Crisis. United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres rated nuclear conflict as “within the realm of possibility.”
What Would a Nuclear War Look Like Today?
Forecasters assess that the chances of a non-test nuclear weapons explosion have risen to roughly ten percent. Typically, the chances of a non-test explosion are pegged around one percent – so, a one thousand percent increase in the likelihood of nuclear weapon deployment. Accordingly, world leaders, and many world citizens, are on edge, asking for the first time in a generation: what would nuclear war look like?
One Study Has Thoughts
A study from Rutgers University proposes that even a “limited” nuclear exchange would have drastic consequences for the human race.
For example, a limited exchange between India and Pakistan, the study found, has the potential to decimate global food supplies, leading to rampant death worldwide. The Rutgers team found that such an exchange, involving less than 3% of the world’s stockpiles, could kill a third of the world’s population in just two years.
And a large-scale nuclear exchange, something between the US and Russia? That could wipe out three-fourths of the world’s population, again, in just two years. “It’s really a cautionary tale that any use of nuclear weapons could be a catastrophe for the world,” the study’s author, Rutgers climate scientist Alan Robock, said.
Nuclear War Means Earth Is Changed Forever
Robock’s study was the first to closely consider the disruption nuclear war would cause to the climate and to food supplies. The results were harrowing. If even a handful of the world’s several thousand nuclear weapons were detonated, massive firestorms would result. The firestorms would kick up soot. The soot would block the sun. With sunlight blocked, the atmosphere would cool. The cooling of the atmosphere would impact everything from crop production to fish harvesting. The result: a nuclear exchange, which killed tens of millions in the immediate war zone, would eventually lead to hundreds of millions of deaths, worldwide, from starvation.
“In my opinion,” Robock said, “our work is an existential threat to nuclear weapons – it shows you can’t use nuclear weapons. If you use them, you’re like a suicide bomber. You’re trying to attack somebody else but you’ll die of starvation.”
India and Pakistan: Biggest Nuclear Challenge
Robock’s team paid special attention to the consequences of a nuclear exchange between India and Pakistan – for, despite the saber-rattling between the US and Russia, India and Pakistan, who share a border, contested territory, and comparable nuclear arsenals, remain the most likely nations to engage in nuclear war. If the two countries targeted one another’s urban centers with nuclear weapons, Robock’s study found that explosions, fires, and radiation would kill 127 million people in South Asia; 37 million metric tons of soot would be kicked into the atmosphere; global temperatures would plunge by more than 5 degrees Celsius – to levels not experienced since the last Ice Age. The temperature drop would destroy food production, so much so that “calories available from major crops and fisheries” would fall “by up to 42%,” resulting in a famine that would kill over 2 billion people worldwide. 5 Billion Dead in a U.S.-Russia Nuclear War An exchange between the US and Russia, while less likely, would be more catastrophic: an estimated 5 billion people would die worldwide – perhaps as many as 6.7 billion at the higher end of the estimates.
“But any of the nine nuclear-armed nations, which also include China, North Korea, France, Israel and the United Kingdom, have enough firepower at their fingertips to cause immense worldwide suffering and death, with soot rising into the sky and touching off a domino effect of catastrophic cooling and famine,” Alex Wigglesworth reported for the LA Times.
While Robock’s study is unlikely to be perfectly precise – the takeaway is obvious: nuclear war will have ramifications that extend far beyond the initial detonation, potentially to the point of endangering human existence.
====================================================================
Yes, citizens our world leaders have not come up with a means to stop this nonsense in the Ukraine and now it is escalating and will eventually lead us to oblivion. Is this the final solution for our species. A handful of drugged, drunken, and egotistical maniacs are now in charge of nuclear weapons and think they can win this war. Let me assert with impunity, "your full of crap" this is not a winnable war by any means. What will it take? A visit from Jesus Christ, God, Aliens, etc. to make you see this is not a road you want to take. If you have any semblance of sanity left in you, let it come forward and stop the madness. This I know for a fact, your not in the right mindset to continue this fiasco in the Ukraine. You had a chance to negotiate many times since the breakup of the Warsaw nations and yet you covet more wars and land for your nefarious purposes and a Sovereign nation with many nuclear weapons is saying no more. Take what you got with your ill gotten gains called "Fiat" currency and stay home for awhile. Spend time with your spoiled children, buy more drugs for Hunter Biden, Zelensky, etc. and keep your hands off the red button. As the robot would say in Lost in Space. "Danger Will Robinson, Danger!" You evidently understand some things are not worth destroying the planet over. What is it you desire, more power, more control, or fewer rules/laws for you to break morally, ethically, and rationally. You are now all War Criminals and should be dealt with poste haste. Based on your own document called the Kellogg-Briand Pact you broke the treaty of trust and this cannot go unpunished. Karma will be coming and She has many means to set things right. You are not immune from her and God. They are the justice of the Universe and you will essentially feel their Wrath. The Cosmos are upset at what you are doing and you will atone. So go back to your Shenanigans and leave humanity to fix the issues you have created. You certainly can't or have no desire to at this point. I know it will take some work and you are very lazy leaders and feel this is for those lesser than yourselves. Well everything is fixable if you just stay in your drug induced slumber and leave those of us that want a better world for our children to make it happen. What else can be said that hasn't been said already? It is now time for action. What will it be boys and girls yes or no? You must be children because responsible adults and true leaders don't act in this fashion. It has done very little to dissuade you ruling classes that this will not end well for you either. Go watch a movie called "A boy and His Dog" eventually those that live in bunkers have to raise more spoiled and uncontrolled children but unfortunately you can't send them to a place like Ibiza, or Jeffrey's island anymore. Haha, the joke will be on you.
On launching a nuclear first strike
The US has long had a doctrine of launching a “disarming” attack against command and control systems, for which they developed cruise missiles the Soviet Union lacked, Putin said. Now Russia has hypersonic missiles that are “more modern and even more effective,” so “perhaps we should think about adopting the developments and ideas of our American partners when it comes to ensuring security.”
While the US doctrine envisions a pre-emptive nuclear strike, Russia’s doctrine is about retaliation, Putin explained. If the Russian early warning system detects a missile attack, “hundreds of our missiles will fly and it will be impossible to stop them.” While some attacking missiles will strike Russia, “nothing will remain of the enemy,” and that is how nuclear deterrence works, he explained.

To the so called ruling Families
Just in case you think the ruling nutjobs (they are no-longer elites in my book) have your best interest at heart, watch this. As a veteran this make me sick and those responsible are destined for hell in whatever faith they abide by. I can assure you atonement is coming.
Here is a sample of a fire sale of what's coming with U.S. Debt

In case we forget the war in Ukraine is on going and it is not looking good for the Zelensky army. This was predicted long ago. Why didn't the Western Leaders adhere to common sense. This could have been prevented and saved soldiers from what will surely be a disaster. What will the outcome going to be? I'm sure this will be another lesson learned in how not to wage war.
