Ask yourself “Why is the Boston Globe putting down Russia?” I believe it is the early stages of beating the war drum. Since Russia has more nukes, and since we may not launch our nukes in retaliation, depending on who is giving the orders, we could be looking at at an American multidecamegadeath situation, this year or next.
Well, around 85% of us have got to go, so you’re probably right.
I don’t feel that kind of thing is going to happen, but I wouldn’t discount the kind of situation that Red China and the USSR were in between 1945 and 1970, where they had occasional armed small armed spats on the border, with the 1969 one turning pretty deadly.
Especially in the air, things can happen pretty fast and spiral out of control. With this POS in the White House and his army of incompetents, I could easily see bad things happening.
Nothing invites aggression like weakness, and we have weakness in spades.
