On Sept 10th, 2001, I remember my brother, who was an air traffic controller in Anchorage at the time, said that the Russians were playing “war games” and they were locking onto civilian American targets. He said after that if we were not at war with Russia the next day, it would be a miracle.
I have no doubt of Russia’s ambitions.
But that is exactly how they view us.
And much of the rest of the world does as well.
What would be the point? How do you think they would “win”?
