He would not be there to bash the big red button ,you may  infact do what many in Russia  are wanting to see happens . 

That's if it hits it's mark, they will have anti everything around him . If some one popped off they'd probably have anti stink system...

Hello, the only way is to get rid of Putin, a well aimed bomb on the Kremlin 🤔👍, if nothing is done then I can see the complete destruction of Ukraine , 10s of 1000s dead , millions Ukrainians displaced into other countries, and their younger generation needing so much help with mental health, from shell shock like WW1 , PTSD, and war wounds that will maim mind and body, it still brings a heavy heart when I see the TV reports, 

Where ever he is he would be somewhere bomb proof and assassination proof.

He is almost certainly the richest man in the world. By several times over more than Elon Musk who is second. according to the people who know about these things. The amount of money he and his cronies have embezzled from Russia is eye watering.

Yet he lives like a rat in a concrete bunker, behind steel doors. Afraid of everybody. What life is that?

He could have used that money to create a lasting legacy in Russia and be regarded as a saint 

There is a bit of a comparison with the pirates of the Caribbean back in the day. They attacked Spanish galleons loaded with gold, and ended up sailing round with their ships loaded with treasure worth a fortune but no way of spending it. Afraid to put into any of the recognised ports they ended up living a pointless existence but rich beyond their wildest dreams.

Meanwhile this is where we are heading

In actual fact the figure are much lower than that. Way way lower. The global economy is more fragile than a soap bubble. Think in terms of the three meals rule.

As big as it and as vast the distances involved, a single  strike on New York would eventually, not immediately, shut down the entire banking system in USA. All money goes through New York one way or another electronically

People would not be able to buy food . fill up their cars, access their savings . Cities would cease to function, millions would have no where to get money. The internet and phone systems would fold too.

This is the reason that so many Americans have been stockpiling guns and  ammo. What ever you think of them they have seen the writing on the wall.

There are different yields of nuclear weapons when they said  ( This is why another study had been conducted in 2018 testing a similar scenario that also concluded that it would take 100 nuclear bombs to end this world ) for that to make any sense they would need to say what size they are talking about.

model of the W48, a very small tactical nuclear weapon with an explosive yield equivalent to 72 tons of TNT

Plus polluted water supplies, no phones, no ATMs, power outs, no foot getting delivered to supermakets. it would all go down like a row of dominoes.

According to the perceived wisdom. People would be resorting to cannibalism within a week.

The UK society is so fragile it is more than scary

I would put the blame where is should be at Russia and Putin, not Boris.

Its the after effects of a bomb and our ability not to survive the consequences that presents the real danger

we are so desperately dependant on food to be delivered to our shops every day

The war in Ukraine has been going on since 2014, it's nothing to do with us.  Why did we not get invloved when Crimea was invaded?  The war is horrific but so is all war and there are many round the world we don't get involved in.  His own country is absolutely on it's knees and all he wants to do is show boat on the international stage with huge amounts of Taxpayers money that we don't have whilst letting his own country implode.  He is a disgrace.

The UK and others did get involved in 2014 they helped train and reorganise the Ukraine army. If the UK and others did not get involved and set back and did nothing, do you think Putin would have stopped at Ukraine. The same argument could have being made during WW2 (  Why did we get involved when Poland and France were invaded it was nothing to do with us, it cost the UK  huge amounts of Taxpayers money that they didn't have )

I am concerned about the UK, NATO is there to prevent Putin's spread.  If Russia had invaded or attacked the UK would Ukraine have helped us, would they risk Nuclear Armagedon for us as Johnson does for his people absolutely not.

Agreed

When his billion dollar yacht got seized there were steps he could have taken to move it / put it into safe harbour - he didn’t bother because he knew there would never be a day he could leave his bunker and sail on it.

As for dropping a bomb on him / The Kremlin - the response would turn the UK to glass - it’s not an option.

It would end a lot of people's world, and just imagine the aftermath.

We are totally dependent on being able to pop the shops whenever we please, they would be empty within days and then what!

The folk we think of as cranks will be stock piling like crazy,  while the rest of us hope it doesn't happen.

Which is why we and others haven't tried to smash Putin's army,  his threat was enough to make governments sit back and watch.

As i said i doubt if others did noting Putin would have stopped at Ukraine, that could have meant NATO getting directly involved. Countries and their leaders have being queuing up appease and lick Putin's boots, it hasn't worked. Maybe they are now thinking a line has to be drawn in the sand, and this is that time. PS Putin had no issues or concerns sending assassins to the UK to poison people with chemical weapons, pay back time.

Just catching the news now. It looks like Finland and Sweeden want in. Do I read correctly that the UK will back them even now?

I suspect Boris forming a UK/finland/sweden help request alliance is a shortcut fix to effectively get them in now rather than wait for all the other members to ratify it.
