No one is going to war with Russia over Ukraine because Ukraine is not worth going to war over and Putin knows it

We’ll see what happens if he decides to invade some other country next, which apparently will be next week according to the news agencies “THE END IS NIGH”

It'll be longer. He's hoping people cave or give him reasons to retaliate.

Here's a nightmare scenario: we invade/nuke a Russian target for some reason.

He nukes back like 3 or 5 targets then suffers massive military losses. Then backs off and turtles. China decides it owns everything next door.

That is also the most likely long term scenario if NATO gets involved.

He'll try to damage the west's economy. Nuke places like London.. Berlin. U.S. port cities.

He can actually suffer catastrophic military casualties because none of his hardware or personnel are high value. They are all more like pop up targets I bet.

We might be tempted to just glass Russia in response to all that. Well be staring China down tho.

So insert Jibartik C&C gif.

I think that they'll let Putin get away with murder. China could be the nuclear holocaust spark. They think they can survive nuclear winter tho I bet. I also bet Chinas long range capabilities are just not up to 2022 standards yet either. I doubt we can any longer win any engagements in that hemisphere tho.

America is on the brink of Civil War and starvation. Americans are undisciplined, uneducated, obese, sick, and living in fear if losing their slave jobs at Walmart.

"They" got us right where they wanted us since we started becoming a dysfunctional society. The culling of the strong, free, and independent is moving along as scheduled. And that's that.

There's no using "one nuke", or stopping at either 3 or 5 targets. If you use a nuke, you know you're getting glassed as a second strike to prevent you from using the rest of your arsenal, so the initial play needs to be to eliminate your enemy. Which you can't do because in the time it takes for your ICBMs to arrive, they've already launched in retaliation.

China has those new hyper-sonic missiles everyone's worried about because it significantly reduces your decision-making time in that scenario, but even if you targeted all the nuclear launch sites you think you know about, you still haven't eliminated nuclear submarine second-strike capability.

They've war-gamed all this shit out since the Cold War, and that's why Mutual Assured Destruction is the best deterrent against anyone using 1+ nukes. First guy to launch starts a snowball effect into the effective destruction of all of human civilization.
