A bit on the crazy train today, but a Russian general wants changes to Russia's military doctrine to include pre-emptive nuclear strikes against NATO nations.
Quote:
A Russian general has called for Russia to revamp its military doctrine, last updated in 2010, to clearly identify the U.S. and its NATO allies as Moscow's enemy number one and spell out the conditions under which Russia would launch a preemptive nuclear strike against the 28-member military alliance, Interfax reported Wednesday.
Russia's military doctrine — a strategy document through which the government interprets military threats and crafts possible responses — is being revised in light of threats connected to the Arab Spring, Syrian civil war, and the conflict in Ukraine, the deputy chief of the Kremlin's security council told RIA Novosti on Tuesday.
