What stupidity! After 70 years of MAD, we get the breathtaking news that we have targets in Russia for our nukes and Russia has 5000 US targets for their nukes. The idiocy of this crusade, its leaders and their acolytes is breathtaking to behold.
The question is what kind of attack on one of the NATO nations would be enough to trigger a nuclear exchange with Russia? Would use of a tactical nuke against Poland or Romania be worth that kind of risk (i.e., all out nuclear war)? Not saying its OK, just thinking about the proportionality and what it would take to justify thousands of nukes being launched — and the global consequences thereof.
“...After 70 years of MAD, we get the breathtaking news that we have targets in Russia for our nukes and Russia has 5000 US targets for their nukes....”
and hasn’t this been true, to one degree or another, for 70 years?? I have never been concerned about Russia before the Biden years.. If Biden’s handlers ever put the briefcase in his hands who knows what will happen.
However, Biden has been pushing Putin pretty hard, and threatening to remove him from office and break up Russia into smaller indefensible countries. If Biden were to ever get to that point, I can see Putin unleashing the missiles hoping for a first strike. Since that is not in the cards for now, there is no real threat.
No, I would be concerned about NK and soon to be nuclear - Iran. Both unpredictable entities.
Pursuit of a sustainable peace is the answer.

Only.... it’s not stupidity or idiocy. It is evil... in its ‘purest’ form. That being... the goal of elimination of all human life on planet earth (the ultimate eff yew to God by Satan and his minions).
We don’t need nukes to destroy Russia, and Russia knows it. They are exceptionally vulnerable to conventional strikes.
