New York City releases PSA for a NUCLEAR ATTACK after Russian state media boasted Putin could wipe out the US East Coast: Video says 'keep radioactive dust away from you'
2022-07-13
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • In a new 90 second clip, NYC's Emergency Management Department tells New Yorkers to: 'Get inside, stay inside and stay tuned'

  • The bizarre timing of the video is raising questions with one official simply saying: 'We really didn't want to put this off'

  • This year has seen Russian President Vladimir Putin issue a range of vague threats against Ukraine's allies following the February invasion

  • In May 2022, a member of Putin's puppet parliament bragged on TV that the Russians could wipe out the US with just four missiles

  • A nuclear blast in New York City would likely kill 1.2 million people instantly

#10  Biggest response to a nuke attack on an American blue city would be dems screeching that they need spotted some votes in the next 29,000 years worth of elections.

#9  One could reason that following a low level nuke attack on NYC, Putin will send his troops in, but that would be foolish. The Secret New York Irregulars would push every one of them on the tracks in front of a subway train.
Victory!

#8  Nuke fear *pron in case the MonkeyPox and latest killer COVID variant don't work to bring about the desired result in the 2022 and 2024 elections. Trying to prep the field for keeping the voting machines, mail-in ballots, fake ballots, drop boxes and other rigging methods?

#7  These idiots say stay tuned to media. We'll be down to smoke signals and semaphore at that point.

#6  We have had a strategic target list since ICBMs and the strategic bomber force. I'm sure the Russians have theirs too.

#5  Publishing the grid coordinates of “command and decision centers” isn’t exactly a vague threat. Seems pretty explicit to me. Amazing that while it’s in a Reuters news release it isn’t covered by the US MSM. Somebody needs a cluebat. https://www.reuters.com/world/russia-publishes-pentagon-coordinates-says-western-satellites-work-our-enemy-2022-06-28/

#4  ...Pardon me, but this is unpossible. All the best people have assured me that there is NO POSSIBLE DEFENSE OR PREP FOR A NUCLEAR ATTACK.

Unless, of course, those best people have suddenly realized that there's people out there insane enough to try it, and they live in the freaking bullseye.
