POSSIBLE MAJOR ALRT WATCH - GET READY - RUSSIAN FIRES -> RADIOACTIVE SMOG -> SURFACE EVACUATION? = PERIMETER ENDGAME? PREP FOR BUSHEHR?

Why did we fight the cold war if we could take Russia down with a forest fire?


back then there forestry department hadnt been cut by 75 percent


yes, kinda strange how they get serious forest fires but only after letting 70,000 firefighers go...I don't like my thoughts on this situation...but as we cast our bread upon the waters, it will return seven fold...comes to mind...

Although officials claimed that no radioactive particles had spread, many Russians are taking the official response with a pinch of salt, Al Jazeera reported, adding that Russian firefighters had quickly extinguished blazes in the Bryansk region, one of the areas worst affected by the Chernobyl fallout.

...

Medvedev also said he had lifted the state of emergency in the Vladimir, Voronezh and Marii El regions, while the situation remained complicated in another four - Mordovia, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod and Ryazan.

Moscow dispatched a special firefighting train and 70 more people to join over 3,400 firefighters battling to douse wildfires close to its top nuclear research center in Sarov, a town in the Nizhny Novgorod region still closed to foreigners, as in Soviet times.

However, a new wildfire caused by lightning flamed up near the Sarov nuclear center.

Could be related to ousting of 'Russian sleeper spies'...More symbolic than anything. Like expelling a country's diplomats.

Also recall that Castro recently spoke publicly...Cuban Missile Crisis ??? There won't be another one of those methinks. You only get one chance at this. It's winner takes all...

what are u getting at, First Strike Australia?

I have been viewing the spy-scandal in the light of domestic infighting, mainly a message to the current administration that 'someone' is still on station, vigilant toward Russian infiltration.

Heh Good point. Who made money in the cold war?

If you knew WWIII was about to start, how would you protect your shit without letting adversaries know what u know.

Doesn't Mother Russia have a history of Scorched Earth action?

Russia says to start up Iran Bushehr plant Aug 21

By Guy Faulconbridge

MOSCOW — Russia said on Friday it will begin loading nuclear fuel into the reactor of Iran's first atomic power station on Aug 21, an irreversible step marking the start-up of the Bushehr plant after nearly 40 years of delays.

Yeah - but why now? It's 'polite' to leave it alone. Like a socially influential 'friend' you can't trust, but dont want to offend.

Russia emergency minister threatens to ‘deal with’ those spreading radiation ‘rumours’ about wildfires in contaminated areas

...

As a consequence, public information about fires in areas posing a potential radiation hazard were ripped down from government websites, most significantly the site of Roslesozashchita, Russia’s forestry agency, which pin-pointed areas most at threat from radiation redistribution into the atmosphere of fires that have been burning across Russia since July.

Whether the information was taken off the website by Roslesozashchita unilaterally or whether it had been ordered to do so by the MChS or the Kremlin could not be established Monday. A spokesman for the forestry agency referred Bellona Web to the MChS for comment, where another spokesman, who refused to give his name, repeated Shoigu’s denial that any radiation dangers were posed by the fires and commented no further before he hung up the phone.

...

By last week Roslesozashchita website was reporting – before it was taken down – that 269 fires were burning over 664 acres in the Bryansk Region.

But that was not all.

Roslesozashchita’s website also reported more than 500 other fires still raging through more than 4000 acres of radioactive trouble spots: In the Kaluga, 11 fires raged over 22 acres; Twelve fires were burning over 155 acres in the Kurgan Region; Tula hosted six fires over 109 acres; The Orlov Region held three fires over 32 acres and the Penza region, 34 fires over 206 acres.

But most worrisome of all, the Chelyabinsk region, home to the Mayak Chemical Combine, Russia’s nuclear reprocessing facility and one of the most radioactively contaminated areas on the planet hosted 401 fires over 3,536 acres.

Yet now the information is gone in a puff of smoke, but Slivyak’s Ecodefence managed to maintain a copy (in Russian) of what had been pulled from Roselesozachita’s website here.
