Russia brought along thermobaric missiles and that would be brutal shock and awe

Putin may be evil as hell but he is not crazy--he's determined to take Ukraine and start what looks to be a rebuilding of a Soviet empire as he always dreamed. But let me again emphasize how evil this bastard is.

Thermobaric missiles have been reportedly been seen heading from Russia to Ukraine. Putin used this type of weapon both in Chechnya and Syria and they are devastating. Officials say they would cause "indiscriminate violence."

A thermobaric missile contains a mixture of highly explosive chemicals and fuel. When it detonates it sends out supersonic blast waves capable of tearing through buildings. Reports say the Russian Tos-1 Buratino missiles have been seen traveling into Ukraine and as yet, have not been used.

The Soviet Union and United States were the two nations that developed this weapon in the 1960s. They are often referred to as the "father of all bombs." These violent weapons suck out all the oxygen in the surrounding area of detonation creating incredibly high temperatures, and for this, they are also dubbed "vacuum bombs." The number of humans one of these devices can kill in the nearby area is devastating.

The US dropped a thermobaric missile on the Taliban in 2017--it weighed 21,600 pounds and left a crater 300 meters wide.

Russia, however, reportedly detonated the largest thermobaric bomb ever made in 2007, resulting in an explosion equivalent to 39.9 tons of TNT.

On Friday, officials were openly fearful that Putin, being the crazy person that he is, would use a thermobaric missile, The Telegraph reported. If Russian troops continue to be thwarted by the Ukrainian people, you cannot rule out Putin going ahead with firing this weapon at the Ukrainian.

Putin is frustrated and impatient, therefore he is unpredictable. Should he go ahead and use this horrible weapon, we don't know how the world will react. However, the Russian people have had the guts to protest this war and over a thousand have already been arrested for demonstrating. 

Hopefully Putin will come to his senses or somebody will have the courage to take him out of the equation before the Russians take out President Zelenskyy.
