    The primary reporting in the guardian says they aren’t talking about it explicitly, and have denied it, but that the depth of the bunkers in question implies tactical nukes would need to be used for the strike they’re discussing to be effective

        Yeah it’s definitely not great (any kind of nuclear response is truly bonkers, genie out of the bottle shit) but if I understand correctly they at least aren’t talking about glassing the country the way the headline implies

        Edit: just still beyond madness btw, precedent leading to dominos falling pretty quick after that, not sanewashing at all, just… maybe a slightly slower slide into apocalypse than instantaneous global thermonuclear war so… yaaaay
