What if They Set Off a Nuke As An Above Ground Test to Demonstrate to NATO they Will Use Nukes To Defend Their Homeland?

Russia is more prepared for a nuclear war than any nation on earth. They even have an automatic missile launching system set up called the “Dead Hand” - that will launch a full retaliatory response if the Russian leadership has been destroyed.

Many in the Russian leadership have recently advocated using a nuke against NATO to show them they are serious about their defenses. What if Putin decides that as a minimum requirement, that setting off an above ground nuke would perfectly illustrate to the west that the Russians are dead serious about the use of nukes.
A nuclear test would kill no one on either side and simply demonstrate how serious the Russians are about defending their nation if the proxy attacks against Russia through Ukraine continues.

So far, nothing the Russians have said has slowed down the military attacks against Russia, as those attacks continue with ever increasing frequency using high tech weapons at the cost of $100 billion spent and over 450,000 Ukrainian lives lost and apx. 50,000 Russians.
What we are witnessing is the definition of insanity. Which is when the globalists that are hell bent on destroying Russia by sending wave after wave of Ukrainians to their death as cannon fodder, thinking each new wave will create a different outcome.

Leave Russia alone! All the Russian people want is to protect their borders and defend the innocent lives of Russians and their Russian culture. Biden is a globalist. Biden is insane, and Biden’s war against the Russians is also insane. What will it take to wake up the American people that a coup has taken place and we are being ruled by an insane tyranny that will lead to a nuclear war and World War 3?
Does an actual nuclear war have to take place before American wake up?!?

Apparently so, since nothing else will shake the people from their slumber. May God have mercy on this nation and the world because of hedonism and slothfulness. Maybe it’s too late. Maybe the enemy has clandestinely crept into our nation to such a degree that the people are now sufficiently mesmerized to the point that an enemy can now take over the nation.

Afterall, we are being invaded, unconstitutionally, and as an act of war, and nothing is being done to stop the invasion of the anti-American hordes – that desire above all else to destroy our way of life.

Perhaps finally, an enemy has conditioned the masses with such hypnotic power that cognitive dissonance prevents the people from waking up to their condition - and that the borders are down, the leadership is insane, and we are literally financing the end of our nation - and not only the dissolution of the Republic, but have lit the fuse to a global nuclear war – where billions will die. Truly an enemy has done this. Because, no sane leaders and no rational people would purposely commit a national suicide. Would they? George Eaton
