Will NATO, the U.S., and Russia agree to not use cyber attacks against each other as that is considered an act of war?

Europe has nukes.

The US can, and should, sit this one out.

Bring out all American troops now.

Sure is. One loose nut will touch it off.

Wont matter who, it’ll be those like me and you who suffer.

Some people on this site seem to think this is some kind of sporting event.

“The rhetoric is disturbing.”

Because it’s dumb. Sophomoric. Thoughtless. Detachment from reality.

The French and the Brits have nukes.
The US needs to keep an eye on the Chicoms and otherwise mind its own business.

And don’t forget Epstein and Brunel didn’t kill themselves.
And we still don’t know who Ghislaine Maxwell’s customer were.

A lot of people on this site talk like George Patton but their only service was selling cookies for the Girl Scouts
