U.S. and its allies plan to provide Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets
In a significant move to enhance Ukraine's defense capabilities, the United States and its allies have expressed their intention to provide Ukraine with F-16 fighter planes and train Ukrainian pilots on fourth-generation aircraft. A senior Biden administration official emphasized that this...
The "powers" are intent of getting us into a world war
Exactly. History shows that a sitting president during a war is almost always re-elected.

I must wonder if our own CIA is behind some of the attacks as well. I just feel strongly like Biden's handlers are trying to get the USA into a direct conflict with Russia so it will directly help his re-election chances. There's a lot on the line and "if" Russia starts using nukes, we'll all be affected. I suppose, the State Department, along with the CIA and President have every "nuke" scenario worked out, but still, it won't be a senator's son sent off to war, it'll be everyone else's. I just wonder if its time to stock up on dried beans and Ramen noodles yet? Stay tuned.Ukraine likely behind Kremlin drone attack, U.S. officials say: report
U.S. officials said a drone attack on the Kremlin was most likely conducted by one of Ukraine's special military or intelligence units.
It's best to be well stocked on dried beans, rice, pasta and Ramen at all times. Never wait until everyone else goes shopping.
I heard someone say the rockets of the nukes are so old now they might not even work.

Since neither of these authors are experts, what they say is conjecture. I think I'll start a blog site where I make stuff up like this. All these conspiracy fanatics reading it would give it a lot of hits, which draws advertising and makes me money. I'm all for that.I heard someone say the rockets of the nukes are so old now they might not even work.
Two articles/blogs here speaks to that.

Now, where did I put those launch codes ??
Someone commented that the Russian ones might have been carnage for metal to sell like their subs were, way back when Russia was not paying their military.
I thought most of these were being stock piled under Regean... That was a long time ago. Rubber and gaskets degrade over time. I just wonder how viable they are, and hope we never find out.
My wife's nephew works in the silo's while in the Air Force, and he told us that they randomly select a silo every 18 months or so and remove the warhead, drain any fuel in it then take the thing to Vandenberg AFB where they test fire it. The guys that worked there could go watch their baby go up in the air and then ride back to the silo with their new baby. They have regular maintenance they do all of the time, much of which is quite dangerous.
As of 2021, 400 Minutemen III ICBM missiles were spread among 450 operational launchers. Intermediate-distance nuclear weapons were eliminated from our stockpile during the Reagan administration.
Good info.
They don't drain the fuel from the warhead, they drain the rocket propellants from the rocket for shipping. The idea being that once it arrives at Vandenberg, they install a dummy warhead, fill it with rocket fuel and program it to head to the test range. Everything else should be in working order,,, if not, someones butt goes in the meat grinder.Good info.
I can't say I would be pleased if my nephew were draining any fuel from a nuclear war head.
However, I am glad they are tested, and I can see it being fun to test fire it.
Wow 31,255 warheads at the peak. I would not have thought it was that many.
US releases nuclear warhead data in bid to pressure Russia
Disclosure under New START Treaty follows Russia’s decision to suspend its participation in the nuclear agreement.www.aljazeera.com
Question, before they do the test fire... the 18 months before it is tested. Is the nuclear warhead on the rocket?
The warhead is on the rocket whenever it's in the silo. 35-40 years ago a missile blew up in a silo in Alabama, it blew the warhead right through the concrete cover. That destroyed the warhead, but there was no radioactive leakage,,, they are really stout. In the old days they would store the fuel away from the rocket, then put just enough fuel in it to get to the target. Now they use hypergolic fuels stored in the rocket while it is in the ready state with enough onboard to reach it's maximum range, and fly it all the way into the target.

“The notion of "bi-partisan support" is broached with Graham applauding, saying that US efforts in Ukraine are "The best money we've ever spent." Congress approved over $113 billion in funds to Ukraine in 2022 alone, and around 60% of that was directed into Ukraine's military.”
