russia has dead hand system, any attack on putin will trigger the dead hand.
most importantly USA doesn't want putin dead, because his next successor could be smarter and more brutal
- drysine 1y ago>any attack on putin will trigger the dead hand of course not
- addandsubtract 1y agoWho would this dead hand attack even target? Wat?
- slt2021 1y agoLondon Paris Berlin and USA. Russia has 6000 warheads, so each western city and each silo and bunker can be targeted with more than one warhead
- wltr 1y agoDo they? Your sources are what, Russians saying they have 6 thousands warheads? Well, yeah, the last time they tested something to scare everyone, their scary missile did not work. I expect most of their warheads in the state of being dysfunctional. It’s a paper tiger, it’s not China, it’s a fake state, a failed one. A mafia covered as a state. Also, do they invest enough to keep it working? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44165277 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44165277 So, which 6,000 are you talking about?
- Braxton1980 1y agoAre you sure? >because his next successor could be smarter and more brutal Why would they? Putin's actions, imo, seemed to be able rebuilding the greatness of the ussr, he's former KGB. Maybe the next person would just be happy with power over one of the largest countries in the world. Plus the end of the war would make him quite popular with the general public
- lostmsu 1y agoThat's not how dead hand works. It is designed to respond to a nuclear attack, not to a leader assassination.
- leosarev 1y agoActually, both. Perimeter dead hand system algorithm: 1. If perimeter have been activated 2. AND there is nuclear explosion at russian territory 3. AND there is no connection to commander-in-chief THAN release launch codes to every local military commander.
