    Yeah and what would that do. Sure a lot of people would die but it won’t help Russia win the war. If they shoot their load and they destroyed say two cities, then everyone else will know that’s it. Launching the missiles would be literally the last thing that they ever do. Mutually assured destruction not required.

    The best way to survive is to constantly threaten but never actually act. Eventually someone will do something about putting oil just die of old age. There isn’t really a way there’s ends with him being victorious.

      Anyone firing nukes at any other country would undoubtedly be devastating to the aggressor, even putler isn’t that stupid.

      Personally I can’t believe how he hasn’t been JFK’d yet.

        yeah, that’s the exact reason why you shouldn’t worry about nuclear war in any case

        Personally I can’t believe how he hasn’t been JFK’d yet.

        that’s because you don’t understand how politically apathetic russians are

        I suspect the reason that is because the sanctions haven’t really bitten home yet and no one really wants to inherit this nebulous mess where Russia’s position with NATO is not well understood, much better to wait and let him to out and out fail, then when they take power the only possible way is up.
