Russia threatens Poland and The United States with nuclear action.

In August 2008, Poland agreed to help the US install a missile shield in Europe. Following the announcement Russia threatened that if Poland continued to help the US they would take nuclear action, including releasing the largest nuclear bomb the world has seen (more then 100 megatons, the best the US can get is about 30 megatons). As of 2009, Russia has once again released a statement saying they will stay loyal to their previous announcement and that it is only a matter of time. Could this be the beginning of World War 3? The world rule of the Russian Federation? or the end of the world? Please discuss below

Sheeeet.....

i agree with eat-ham, Russia just might kill the world.

I say we shoot the nuke before the fire it...blow THEM up...

rofl my copter

But think, is Russia justified? If you have multiple nations in your country setting Missie shields so you have no chance of being able to fire missiles at them if it came to it, then you had a huge foreign nation helping them, it was seem there is an impending attack on you.

True, but why would we have reason to attack them in the first place?

f**k them then, we would kick Russia's ass. sorry if i sound assy...... im in a bad mood.

Cold War déjà vu. That's all I have to say.

Actually No one new Russia had a 100 megaton bomb until they detonated it on a testing run, imagine what other weapons the could have secretly been developing over the last 40 years.

But i think Russia is justified, why must the US but into foreign affairs with Poland, we have enough to worry about in our own country.

First of all, their largest bomb was only 50 megatons (and that was nothing more then a propaganda stunt, not an actual weapon). Second of all, they've been in fairly bad shape for the past ten years. I doubt they've been developing anything we don't already have.

The funny thing is: Russia has been doing almost exactly the same thing.

actually there is a reason that the US is only able to create weapons to a certain extent, we made a treaty some time ago that stated that we are 2 stay at around a certain level on technology so that we wont have the ability to try what Hitler did during WW2 since we increase our level of technology so quickly or something along those lines........ i cant exactly remember.

witch king, Russia did make a 100 megaton bomb, Tsar Bomba, search it if you must, and Russia as of last year, has fully recovered from the financial crisis in the 1980's, and is planning on building the worlds tallest building, Russia Tower, as well as devoting 20 billion dollars to infrastructure repair.

just for clarification, Tsar Bomba was 100 megatons, but Russia did not know the effects of a bomb of that size, as well as, it would cause panic among the other nations, so they reduced the yield to 50 megatons before detonation.

we would still most likely kick their asses, and i thought we had become allies with them in the last 15-20 years or so?

we have, and why do you say we would kick their ass?

well no one really knows what our government really has.

same for Russia, and any nation for that matter.

we know what Russia's strongest weapon most likely is, the same two things u mentioned on the chat box, we on the other hand are not even told by our own government what they do and can do.

yes, but because we know what Russia has doesn't mean it is the mots powerful weapon, they could also be hiding much more.

thats y i said most likely

Nope. They're in far worse financial trouble then we are.

And yes, I do know about the Tsar Bomba. It was originally designed to be a 100 megaton bomb, but the design was halved due to the large amount of nuclear fallout that would result from a 100 megaton nuclear explosion. I also know that the bomb never entered service. Why? Because it was simply too expensive to build. The only reason the bomb was made in the first place, was propaganda.

And Russia Tower will not be the tallest building in the world.

first off, Russia Tower, upon completion will be the tallest building until another is completed that is larger. Second of all, you must prove to me that they are in much more financial trouble, which you will fail to do considering they are not in more financial trouble. And second of all Tsar Bomba as tested on October 30, 1961 in Novaya Zemlya, an island in the Arctic Sea.

here is the link to the detonation.

Nope. Burj Dubai (Link) is supposed to be at least 600 feet taller (and it will be completed this year). Russia Tower is set to be completed in 2012. Not to mention the fact that that the Chicago Spire will be exactly the same height as Russia Tower.

That's funny. This tends to say otherwise.

And that disproves that it was a purely propaganda...how?

The fact remains it was too expensive to put into service. The fact that they still opted to build it, and detonate it, confirms that it was a propaganda based measure meant to inspire patriotism/nationalism.

The thing was detonated, how is that fake, people could not fake a nuclear explosion back then, and the fact that the island is gone now has nothing to do with it. And just because it says Russia is in financial trouble doesnt mena they are in deeper then us?
