Worse. JFK woke up every day knowing what day it was, who he was, and how to use both the emergency hotline and the nuclear codes.

The current resident, not so much.

The Cuban missile crisis was about one superpower putting missiles within striking distance of the major population centers of another superpower and standing up to that existential threat.

The war in Ukraine is about one corrupt dictator on the other other side of the world invading the land of another corrupt dictator on the other side of the world. We're already tanking the world economy over it, so glad this is the thing we might end the world over. Aint globalism grand?

You pro Ukrainian people are lunatics. They are not worth one drop of American blood or 1 penny from the treasury. Let the Russians and Ukrainians slaughter eachother. They certainly are not worth a nuclear exchange.

“Anatoly Antonov, Russian ambassador to the United States.”

I don’t see how it escalates.

Vlad knows the US Mid-Terms are coming and the liberals are going to lose at least the House, maybe both. All he has to do is wait out the winter until the US Congress is seated, with his newly-minted army of 300K.

And he wins the whole enchilada with 4 new provinces added to the federation, and a US Congress that isn’t going to approve another dime for Ukraine. Then add to that the impeachment of Chairman Xiden.

All he has to do is wait out the winter while Europe freezes.

I don’t know why people still think there can be something like a limited nuclear exchange. Once the nuclear war is set off, it’s use ‘em or lose ‘em, and that’s been the doctrine for decades.

Everyone who is for war with Russia over Ukraine should be drafted, sent to Ukraine with a rifle and a one way ticket.

If Russia launches a tactical nuke the best response is doing nothing…for a while. The global condemnation would be extreme. Even their allies would step back.

No one is going to incinerate Europe—let alone the world, over Ukraine.

"As Henry Kissinger wrote in 2014, “The demonization of Vladimir Putin is not a policy; it is an alibi for the absence of one.”"

Some here would do well by reading that several times, engaging the brain rather than, well...you know.

Besides the fact that demonizing Putin - in contrast to the ad hominem, I am certainly not a blind supporter - aligns directly with demoncrats and globalists keen to cause global disruption pursuant to their goals.

One of the rules of employing unconventional weapons (nuclear, biological, chemical) is don’t use them when they might blow back in your own face. Because of prevailing westerly winds, Russia can’t nuke the Ukraine without risking the fallout drifting over their own provinces of Rostov, Voronezh, Belgorod and Kursk.

The result would be like Phoenix nuking San Diego. It might seem like a good idea at the time but the fallout eventually will reach Phoenix, too.
