State TV says Russia could turn US to 'radioactive ash'



"Russia is the only country in the world realistically capable of turning the United States into radioactive ash," anchor Dmitry Kiselyov said on his weekly news show on state-controlled Rossiya 1 television.


Kiselyov made the comment to support his argument that the United States and President Barack Obama were living in fear of Russia led by President Vladimir Putin amid the Ukraine crisis.

He stood in his studio in front of a gigantic image of a mushroom cloud produced after a nuclear attack, with the words "into radioactive ash".


"Americans themselves consider Putin to be a stronger leader than Obama," he added, pointing to opinion polls which then popped up on the screen.

Putin last year appointed Kiselyov head of the new Russia Today news agency that is to replace the soon to be liquidated RIA Novosti news agency with the aim of better promoting Russia's official position.

The channel's graphic showed the line of a Russian missile heading towards the Pacific coast and the United States.

It reminds me of nikita krushchev who said

Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you.

He also boasted that they had much more nuclear bombs then the US when in fact they had multiple time less. The so called missile gap.

Be advised, the US has many carriers, war with Russia would mean WWIII, do you realize what happens when there is war? Do you think we are somehow evolved? Its only been a little more than half century since WWII.

Russia would be defeated, without a doubt, but not without the loss of great life.

No winner in a nuclear war, just a long winter.

Russia would be eradicated. So would the US. The parts of the world that weren't involved would then have a bleak future.

 

[zinfamous]

96% support with 60% Russian pop.

LOL. Its hard for a brainwashed neocon to realize that there are millions of people in Russia who say "things" that Russian government doesn't "like", yet they're not in jail. Blasphemy in one of the holiest places of the country will and should get your ass kicked.

Trying to call me a 'neocon' is hilarious. I guess that's what happens when you can't actually argue on the merits.

Needless to say it is very telling that you shriek against the NSA spying on people but when asked about how your preferred country's dictator imprisoning people you say that they deserved it. (it is likely not a coincidence that this is almost identical to the justification offered by Putin himself)

Unlike you, I think spying on your citizens without warrants and imprisoning people based on bullshit charges are BOTH wrong. Then again, your moral 'flexibility' has been on display throughout this thread.

You do realize that the non-Russians didn't recognize the vote, and did not participate? There was an article about it on CNN yesterday about that fact.

95% actually seems about right since the only people voting were Russians.

Seems about right for Venezuela and Cuba too.

If we had a vote in Central, MN about joining Russia. I'd vote yes, and I'm not Russian and they are not in by backyard. So what's your point? That it was a corrupt vote?

Every vote is a corrupt vote, since you can just crumple up every vote and throw it in the waste basket, because the government is going to do what it wants regardless.
