As the top-secret plan to build the bomb,
called the Manhattan Project, took shape in the United States, the
Soviet spy ring got wind of it before the FBI knew of the secret
program's existence. Barely four years after the United States dropped
two atomic bombs on Japan in August 1945, the Soviet Union detonated its
own in August 1949, much sooner than expected.
This was just after the end of World War II. On 8 May 1945, the Allies accepted Germany’s surrender, about a week after http://primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/war/leaders.html" rel="nofollow - Adolf Hitler had committed suicide.
comment: They were the first after the U.S. to have nuclear weapons. Then began the Cold War and we are back to it. That is the point here. Russia had nearly dissolved losing much of the Soviet Union and The Wall in Berlin came down. Now - due to a near power vacuum in the U.S. for the last 8 years and Russia establishing their military in Syria and controlling the region - they are back.
Putin does not play fair. He is an ex-KGB head
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/inatl/longterm/russiagov/putin.htm" rel="nofollow - http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/inatl/longterm/russiagov/putin.htm
and as Trump tries to run America like a business because he was and is a billionaire - Putin runs Russia with the tactics of the KGB and while very gifted at speaking, and appearance, he would order a nuclear strike.
I don't believe much of the Free World believes this or the press. It is a big drama for them with our tough generals muttering Putin is all talk and posturing.
How do I back this up?

Gen. Jack Keane (Ret.) expressed skepticism over http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/06/19/us-shoot-down-syrian-jet-prompts-russian-threat.html" rel="nofollow - Russia's threat to shoot down U.S. aircraft in Syria.
Russia's defense ministry said planes flying in Syria, west of the
Euphrates River, would be considered targets after the U.S. Navy shot
down a Syrian warplane.
comment: I think we need to add a new variable to this equation - "Saving of Face". There is a balance of power and despite a flurry of fallout shelter drills when they thought Hillary Clinton would be elected ("no fly zone for Russia = World War 3)- people behind the scenes take a first strike advantage seriously.
While everyone is having fun with their smart phones and America is on an eating frenzy which has doubled the size of our population without increasing the number - things are dangerous. Kim Jung-Un - still the arrogant bad boy with nukes and wanting to blow up the U.S. and neither China or Russia doing thing one to hurt him really.
So after sitting back and watching China expand outward claiming the North China Sea as it's own, Russia continue to try and expand its borders and will - and with a near miss on a U.S. fighter today of 5 feet of a U.S. Spy plane...

An armed Russian jet came within five feet of a U.S. spy plane over the Baltic Sea Monday, Fox News reports.
The Russian SU-27 fighter aircraft reportedly came up
alongside the U.S. RC-135 and began flying in an “provocative” and
“erratic” manner, U.S. officials http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/06/20/breaking-news-armed-russian-jet-comes-within-5-feet-us-recon-jet.html" rel="nofollow - said . Russia
routinely buzzes U.S. ships and planes operating in the Baltic sea near
its territory. The military has already had 35 interactions with
Russian planes in the area in just the last 18 days.
comment: 5 feet is too close. This is not a carnival and at that speed - even Paris, London, and Mexico City taxi drivers - all of which I have experienced, can make mistakes.
What then?

"Russian fighter takes down U.S. plane." (doubt many would say spy plane - you know how not accurate CNN and Fox are)
Time for a "Show of Force" after a "Saving of Face"?
Not a whole lot of time from a "show of force" to a nuclear launch. There is a Russian sub parked just outside the "limit" off the coast of San Francisco. The subs routinely move up and down off the coast of California. Have been for decades. 5 minutes. Hillary went on about this violating with her lack of ability on national security - how much time we would have to react. None really.
Preppers... marvel not if the world hates you - or thinks you are crazy - keep on preppin'
Was talking to Dr. John yesterday and he is still getting ready to plant and stock up on food. I need to get out of California because forget the big earthquake coming - our brinksmanship in Syria may do it. Once the first nuclear device goes off it will be open season. Every country that even thought about nuking someone will including cells in the U.S. and all over Europe. It will be the 4th of July and from space you will see the show - astronauts stuck up there.
June 20, 2017 - today - despite what anyone says - we may be on the verge of World War III.
