So, they wanna get political, huh? It was the political left that engaged in the first (and only) use of nukes on innocent civilians, including Catholics.

That is certainly condemnable.
 
@po18guy

What do you mean? Wasn’t Truman a Democrat? That would have put him on the right in the 1940s.

The left would have been Eisenhower, who expressed opposition and regret to the dropping of the atom bombs.

Remembering the Chernobyl tragedy frightens even the peaceful use of nuclear power plants.
There are quite a few countries where these stations operate.
I recall the terrible truth of my Ukrainian childhood.
I was a child in western Ukraine, and I remember how evacuees were brought to us.
After the explosions happened, several stages of the rescuers died a terrible death.
People who tried to stop the fire afterwards in their hospitals with their bodies carried death and to doctors and relatives.
And they themselves died in terrible agony and looked like completely burnt freaks.
Their bodies were poured with concrete to prevent the corpses from bringing death to others.
The soldiers who were obliged to shoot and bury all living cattle in concrete also frequently became later the victims of oncological diseases.
The same can be said about the miners working in Chernobyl, and who then had children or freaks, or dead children.
A terrible black fog carried clouds for many kilometers, and there was a terrible statistics of people with cancer.
Nuclear development can carry terrible mass tragedies, and for good reason many people are even concerned about the presence of nuclear power plants in their countries.
 
I wouldn’t exactly call Chernobyl “peaceful.” The RBMK was designed to generate weapons-grade plutonium while also producing electricity, and any sophomore nuclear engineering student could tell you why it was unstable.
 
Yes, in the case of Ukraine, both the presence and the paradoxical absence of nuclear power plants did not benefit the country.
I dont know, you see
Having lost our status as a nuclear power, we have lost territories, we Ukrainians could be as a stronger stronghold to strengthen the West from Russia.
But our worst problem was that we, as an organism, did not have our own head, which is scary for a nuclear power, and scary for a power in general. Therefore, an explosion occurred, therefore, at the time of independence, the parliament voted for the withdrawal of the status of a nuclear power in which there were quite a few Moscow agents.
But when I remember Chernobyl, I am terrified.
The nucleus and the atom in action its a devilish dances and whistle dance right from hell.
 
Listen, the whole world is unfortunately the danger of a potential Chernobyl.
It’s not for nothing that the Holy See pays attention to this problem.
Is there no nuclear power plants in Belgium or in France?
Can neighboring states be protected from tragedy, if God forbid it would occur?
Yes, in the democratic world, everything is much better organized than in the Soviet trowel, but do you think if God forbid something would happen, then you would be correctly informed about it?
We know that there is a ecological problem, that there are oncological problems, including children’s oncology.
I am for all the states together to stop threatening each other.
But look that in the case of Ukraine, we are threatened by a neighboring state (which has taken away our territory) with the disappearance of our sovereignty.
And more recently, we were a strong nuclear state and we were considered.
Now no one cares about us, now we are alone with the Russian-bear, who understands that by seizing Ukraine, he will be able to continue to gain strength and power and continue to threaten and terrorize the world community.
 
The United States is watching the situation in the Ukraine. It is on guard against Russian expansion.

Belgium and France don’t conduct tests that remove pretty much all the safe guards on their nuclear reactors to fix a problem that shouldn’t have existed to begin with if the Soviets put proper money into their plants like they should have. Belgium and France do not make the ceilings of said reactors out of flammable material.
 
In the last parliamentary elections, seeing the list of parties of candidates, it is clear that the Kremlin is using another tactic of mastering Ukraine, and I think it will be a bribes, cash injections into the necessary for the Kremlin laws projects, that is, plan A, and there is plan B, but what happens in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia is an existential rivalry, and it will affect future world history

The Russians probably say the same about you yanks. I often wonder why we bother worrying about the protection of the West, and the so-called “free world”. As Catholics I mean. I mean, a nation, in and of itself is not great. What made the West great was Christianity. But now we except all kinds of depravity in the name of tolerance, and murder our children, and the weakest in society, all legally.

Not a society I’m too keen on preserving.

My thoughts exactly.
 
Your comments are not helpful.

The United States military is watching all enemy states, including Russia. That is no secret.
 
It’s true though. If the US focused on trying to come to an understanding and partnership with Russia instead of fighting proxy wars and destroying smaller nations by funding opposing sides in civil wars that have nothing to do with them, the world would be a better place. We can’t go back to not having nuclear weapons but there’s no point pretending that the US is somehow better than Russia in their foreign policy.

I do not agree with the common classification of Russia as an “enemy state.” The USA has never been at war with Russia.
My opinion is that Russia is the best friend that the USA could have in this world, and our refusal to accept that friendship will not turn out well for us or for anyone else for that matter, except maybe ISIS.

The “situation in the Ukraine” was created by a botched CIA attempt to remove the Ukraine from the Russian sphere of influence and enroll that country into NATO. The democratically elected President of the Ukraine was forced out of office by a CIA inspired right-wing mob. Did the USA really believe that Russia would allow its naval bases in the Crimea to be taken over by NATO? The CIA backed the Bear into a corner and received an appropriate response which it has tried to label as “Russian aggression.”

As I stated above, the USA ought to stop its labeling of Russia as an “enemy” for the crass purposes of its politicians.
