I'm sure here are already target lists drawn up for ever scenario you outlined.

If Russia hits any NATO country conventionally the response will be conventional.

If it's a nuclear strike the counter target is already pre-selected.

where exactly would those nuke strikes be? Pretty tight window between Moscow and the border of NATO.... and.....hmmm do you think that they'd react to nukes by just giving up?

Just a targeting glitch would hit the major CIVILIAN population areas of Russia....

You think they'd understand? I'm pretty sure that the pin heads in Brussels might have a nice conference with power point presentations and flights out of Europe ASAP if things got "froggy".

But where to fly to?
