Russian invasion of Ukraine

I think there are three reasons why this will never go nuclear.

If he gives the order, the people carrying it out know what happens next. And they have family to think about.
Following it, will mean their families will probably die, so why obey the order? I think most would rather be shot than kill their own families. They did tests on Submarines, and nearly all crew failed to carry out the (fake) order to fire.
I think if the Americans fired first and they genuinely thought Russia it'self was under threat then maybe. But not punish a country for defending it'self.

There is no chance on earth the Americans haven't got people on the inside and that includes Putin's inner circle.
Up to now, they will have kept their powder dry. No matter how many Ukrainians die or suffer, the world in general isn't under threat.

Even the Americans would have a hard time justifying taking him out now. State sponsored assassination of a country's leader is a big no no.
However, if he launched even a single nuke, then the picture would change in a instant.
This would justifying using lethal force to protect the total destruction of the world as we know it.

Finally Putin knows that there is a good chance the rockets/missiles fail to launch or fail to detonate properly.
Will be intercepted, or blow up over Russia.

I'm of the attitude that it will never happen, and if it does i'll deal with it then!
Some big statements there bud, what is your source for such detail?

I think you're probably right but not for those reasons, I think the chain of command would comply with an order to use nuclear weapons, but use of even a low yield weapon in Ukraine would cause panic on the streets of Moscow like you can't imagine (revolution maybe?), we've already seen the reaction to the partial call up.

Also Putin aspires to take terratory from Ukraine, what's the point if you've turned it into a radio active desert. It's also been reported that Biden thinks that although the risk has risen the use of nukes is unlikely. US and UK intel will know if Russia starts preparing its nukes even for tactical use, so I think we will at least get some warning.

In short, dont panic,

yet!
I presume he taken into account the prevailing wind, if indeed it is blowing east.......He'd look a right twat otherwise.
 
Russian missiles hit Dnipro City bus station,about an hour ago.
Don't know about any casualties.....hopefully none.

Slava Ukraini.
Sad to read that! I had assumed major cities like Dnipro were in possession of Patriot Air missile defence systems that the Israelis use.
