Video Emerges Showing Massive Russian Nuclear Drill

Love a nuclear cock-tease the Russians, don't they? As if the West couldn't be more worried over a potential WWIII, footage has now surfaced purporting to show the public being prepared for an all-out nuclear romp.

The nuclear drill, which involves some 40 million Russians, comes after reports that the nation is about to make this second Cold War a bit hotter.

The clip shows emergency workers, donned in protective suits and gas masks, leading a civil defence rehearsal. The biggest of its kind since the fall of the USSR.

Moscow bomb shelters have also been revamped for the benefit of the city's inhabitants, Russian authorities have said.

So what we saying? A legitimate threat or is it all just Putin bluster?

In my opinion, if Russia - indeed anyone - was gearing up for a nuclear blowout, wouldn't you stave off documenting the process for the rest of the world's eyes?
