The Russian president of the Academy of Geopolitical Problems, Konstantin Sivkov stated that the U.S. has two geographic Achilles heels that should be struck with nukes for the “complete destruction of the enemy”: Yellowstone’s supervolcano and the San Andreas Fault.
Sivkov states that this is necessary because NATO has been “moving to the borders or Russia.”
Yellowstone’s volcano has violently erupted three times and “blanketed parts of the North American continent with ash and debris,” according to the US Geological Survey.
Some scientists argue that Yellowstone’s active supervolcano is long overdue for a colossal eruption.
“Geologists believe that the Yellowstone supervolcano could explode at any moment. There are signs of growing activity there. 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,” he said, according to a translation by Sydney Morning Herald.
According to a Discovery Channel documentary, an eruption of this magnitude would bury North America, drape the atmosphere in a sulfur haze, dim sunlight, and plunge the world into a volcanic winter.
Another option would be to drop a nuclear bomb near California’s San Andreas Fault. “A detonation of a nuclear weapon there can trigger catastrophic events like a coast-scale tsunami which can completely destroy the infrastructure of the United States,” he said, according to the Sydney Morning Herald’s translation.
Since last year’s illegal annexation of Crimea, Russian President Vladimir Putin has responded to international criticism and economic sanctions placed on his country by flexing his nation’s military muscle around the world.
The crisis in Ukraine reflects a turning point in NATO’s stance on Putin and emphasizes a growing concern stemming from the origins of NATO, which was formed for collective territorial defense.

One problem. That picture is in GLACIER national park. Not Yellowstone. Just saying…
Do you mean that we eat the most of world food supply???
That would set off a nuclear winter over the whole planet….they may be different from us but I don’t think they would be that stupid.
It would be their funeral too, if American Nukes don’t get them, the super volcano ash would block out the sun for years….
putin come on your smarter than that if you nuke that place the whole world is screwed
Not necessary since it will probably go off by itself. Why waste a perfectly good nuclear weapon.
We the people are not your problem, our gov. Is dont assume we are all like them .
Nature /God will make that decision. California; just keep killing them babies & playin boy on boy.
I need a new GOVERNMENT! Mine SUCKS.
they would have to have the new go off over 300 feet underground to be effective
