Their Enclave Naval Base is on the border of Poland, I think the Poles and the US should take them out preemptively.

That is why the Russians have tactical nukes based there. Think about it? Does escalation mean nothing to you? Freeper armchair generals out in force yet again!

Best suggestion I've heard for a long while. Russia is very confident in its actions because it knows that there is absolutely no chance that we will respond militarily or even stage a surprise move like the one it pulled off. For a brief moment, I hoped that we might have a serious plan to back up our words, but as usual, now we're back to huffing and puffing.

I think we'd only have to do it once. They need to have an experience that makes them think long and hard about doing something like this again.
