It is assumed that these platforms are the result of the super-eruption that occurred about a quarter of a billion years ago. Therefore strikes, even extremely powerful, will not lead to catastrophic geophysical consequences. And what the United States? First of all, attention is drawn to Yellowstone National Park, located in the caldera of the same name supervolcano, which, according to geologists, is close to the period of its activation, which occurs at a frequency of 600 thousand years. About as long ago it was the last eruption. The power of this supervolcano several orders of magnitude weaker than the Siberian, so its eruption led to the mass extinction of living beings on the planet as a whole, but for the American continent this eruption was, no doubt, disastrous. Geologists believe that the Yellowstone supervolcano could erupt at any moment. Signs of growth of its activity there. So enough of a relatively small shock, such as the impact of the munition megaton class to initiate an eruption. The consequences will be catastrophic for the United States - a country just disappears. All its territory is covered with a thick (several meters or tens of meters) layer of ash. Another vulnerable area US geophysical point of view is the San Andreas - a length of 1,300 kilometers rift between the Pacific and North American plates. It runs along the coast of the State of California, somewhere on land and partly under water. In parallel to it are faults the San Gabriel and San Hosinto. This is an area of geophysical instability generating earthquakes with a magnitude of 8.5 on the Richter scale. Exposure to sufficiently powerful nuclear warhead can initiate catastrophic events that can completely destroy the infrastructure of the United States on the Pacific coast of scale tsunami. Finally, we must not forget about the Atlantic and Pacific transform faults. Lying parallel to the shoreline, respectively, east and west coasts of the US, they can be a source of major tsunami that will cause catastrophic damage to a considerable depth from the shore.

All of our critical shit is EMP hardened, and our subs untraceable, if the DEFCON gets high enough they run and hide, not even we know where they are. And our anti-missle system is the best there is. And one small thing, our nuclear arsenal actually works You can ignore the consequences of your actions, but you cannot ignore the RESULTS of the consequences of your actions Ayn Rand |

He further opined that Russia should increase its conventional and nuclear capabilities and alter its strategies against the "West," which he said was "moving... to the borders of Russia." Sivkov theorized that the North American Treaty Organization (NATO) -- the world's enduring military and political alliance of Western nations led by the U.S. -- was building strength to confront Russia, perhaps over Moscow's involvement in the war in Ukraine, and that the best way to do that was to attack any U.S. vulnerabilities, to ensure "complete destruction of the enemy." "Geologists believe that the Yellowstone supervolcano could explode at any moment. There are signs of growing activity there," he said as reported by SMH. "Therefore it suffices to push the relatively small, for example the impact of the munition megaton class to initiate an eruption. The consequences will be catastrophic for the United States - a country just disappears."
