I think that article is ... biased ... regarding Russia's posture. One of their concerns is to protect Christians being horribly martyred in these places. The US and some other countries appear to be ignoring that situation.

Those who fear death are not enlightened with the Spirit of God yet.

Psalm 23
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Deuteronomy 20
20 When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the Lord thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
Being prepared for trying times is not the same as being fearful. Should we just stick our heads in the ground, so that the scripture slingers have nothing to debate? God forbid.

Where did you read this?

I did not read the story only an article headline on face book, BUT given the less than stable relationship we have maintained with Russia recently and then there is the cold war in history I am slightly inclined to think they just might be telling the truth.

Let those who are of Satan worry about those things. Satan will be destroyed soon. You know Eternal Life so it's impossible for you to be destroyed.
I can, however, be destroyed on this Earth.

I did some googling and found this: Putin Ally Tells Americans: Vote Trump or Face Nuclear War.

The article does say that the guy making this claim, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, is regarded by many Russians as "a clownish figure who makes outspoken statements to grab attention but he is also widely viewed as a faithful servant of Kremlin policy, sometimes used to float radical opinions to test public reaction." He's also "known for his fiery rhetoric". I'm thinking a Russian version of Rush Limbaugh in that regard, maybe. Anyway, the speculation about nuclear war happening if Trump didn't win was indeed made, although by someone whose opinions should probably be taken with a grain of salt.

If anything, the threats leave me even more disinclined (if that were possible) to vote for Trump.
