“So, if you have a fear of nuclear war — and what sane person wouldn’t? — you should take that up with Russia.”
The people filled with ABJECT HATRED are the Neocons, and their hatred directed at Russia and their hatred began before Trump was even president, and they control nukes, lots of them. That is no less dangerous than Hitler having nukes as he was also seething with hatred. On the other hand, by all rules of warfare, Russia has EVERY RIGHT to engage NATO countries...except that they show restraint.

These “Neocons,” as you call them, have apparently been in control of the US government since GHWB (that would be Bush I). Yet, oddly, they never nuked Russia. And what better time to do it then in the 1990s, when the Soviet Union collapsed and disintegrated? Yet, strangely, they never did. Why is that? I mean, if the US were planning to nuke Russia, what better time than that?
“That is no less dangerous than Hitler having nukes as he was also seething with hatred.”
You are projecting onto others your clearly exhibited “seething hatred” of those you call “Neocons,” obviously a talking point.
“On the other hand, by all rules of warfare, Russia has EVERY RIGHT to engage NATO countries...except that they show restraint.”
Well, Russia could try and justify any such engagement, but it would be about as credible as the ever-changing reasons it gave for invading Ukraine. So, why doesn’t it? I’ll tell you why: Because bullies do not attack someone who can not only fight back but can fight back so forcefully that the bully is destroyed. Bullies bluff and bluster, and only pick a fight with someone they think they can dominate. But when the intended victim fights back, that bully shrieks and wails and cries “FOUL!” Why do you think all those former Soviet satellite countries rushed to join NATO once they became independent? Because they knew Russia was a bully, and they knew that NATO would stand up to that bully.
