    Given that the Russians are very much aware of the melt down that occurred in Chernobyl in 1986, was it not very careless of them to attack an important nuclear power station, possibly putting themselves and much of Eastern Europe at great risk? Why do you think they would do this?

    Rothschild family head, currently nathaniel since 2018, has organized legislated social and civil war of 182 countries of the world since 1782, through the wealthiest family in each of the countries, by threat of asset collapse. All claimed as legislation and improvement by hired mouthpieces from napoleon to pen-biden working for the rothschild zionist consortium currently called vanguard agency.
