The state of play on the Eastern Front. From Drudge:

You think this isn’t back to the Cold War? If this is from “State TV” this is semi-official.

A leading anchor on Russian state television on Sunday described Russia as the only country capable of turning the United States into “radioactive ash”, in an incendiary comment at the height of tensions over the Crimea referendum.

Kiselyov made the comment to support his argument that the United States and President Barack Obama were living in fear of Russia led by President Vladimir Putin amid the Ukraine crisis.

His programme was broadcast as the first exit polls were being published showing an overwhelming majority of Crimeans voting to leave Ukraine and join Russia.

Why even hint at nuclear war but there you are. The one-world progressives, our leading elites across the West, never even saw it coming. As for Sarah and Mitt, well that’s another story.
