Russia's GNP
is so small they probably
couldn't afford fuel
to fly enough planes
for a proper invasion.
And I bet China
would be unwilling
to sacrifice cargo space
in container ships
for the Reds to use
snail-mail to send soldiers here . . .
No, I think we're safe.
Their air defense was obsolete in the 1980s and is virtually non-existant now, airbases untenable with poorly maintained revetments, taxiways, approach systems,no climate controlled hangars for delicate maintenance, no spare parts for the few show-off aircraft and no well trained pilot corps beyond the cadre' now in uniform, no workable reserve structure or recall system, poor training facilities--and a myriad other planner's nightmares.
The Russsian are not coming, the Russians are not coming --Go tell Alan Arkin.
And that doesn't even begin to address the Russians' lack of sea power or the ability to project power to cause a chosen enemy to do its will--which, after all, is the object of international conflict.
You would lose your bet.
