The only winner out of that whole mess was Iran.

“It’s already been stated that if they use nukes we will at the very least destroy the Russian black sea fleet.”

Says who, exactly?

That would be counter to all US policy to date and only POTUS could change it with a direct order. And such an order would be strongly resisted by the Pentagon. If not refused, depending on circumstances.

I call it a serious case of wishful thinking.

“The only winner out of that whole mess was Iran.”

Pretty much so.

[Leaning Right]

> The only winner out of that whole mess was Iran. <

You are so right. Saddam was evil, a despot, etc. But he was also an effective counterweight to Iran. No way would he have allowed Iran to develop a nuclear weapon. Saddam would have struck. Israel wouldn’t have to.

Jimmy Carter got rid of the Shah. Good for the Iranian radicals.
Bush II got rid of Saddam. Also good for the Iranian radicals.

If Iran had any decency, they’d give both Carter and Bush II medals. Or at least letters of appreciation.

[ought-six]

“Or at least letters of appreciation.”

Yup.

[Hamiltonian]

Ukrainians know what its like to be nuked by the Kremlin. And 37 years after the RBMK-1000 exploded, there's still 40 million Ukrainians.

The Kremlin might want to think about Plan B.

[SuperLuminal]

"It would be the beginning of WW3."

All that would be left would be to find out whether the communist U.S. allies itself with Russia or China...

I'm guessing China...

[Widget Jr]

Goes back and actually reads the article ◔_◔...

...And in the great tradition of the British tabloid press, the title is click bait. Good catch.

[adorno]

No, your wrong..Ukraine is not a NATO country.

That's not how things work.

Ukraine is in Europe, and it's actually the largest country in Europe, and a lot of NATO countries are either bordering it or close to it. Unofficially, it's protected by NATO countries, even if it's not part of the treaty.

No NATO country is willing to allow Ukraine to be taken or invaded, because, any one of them could be next.

So, you are very wrong again. Ukraine will not go it alone and Russia is learning that lesson, even if it wins a battle or two along the way.

[adorno]

So, I guess that makes you a communist, since, in a communist country, no other party is allowed and no other political ideology is allowed.

Good to know.

So, which communist country do you wish communist U.S. to ally itself with? China is currently more communist than Russia, so, perhaps you prefer the Chinese?

[adorno]

Some idiot country will sneak in one

With all due respect, that's pretty dumb.

[adorno]

You have demonstrated yourself to be completely ignorant of US nuclear and strategic policy.

And you demonstrated that you have no argument to debunk my argument.

Just denying my argument with your pretentious knowledge of 'nuclear and strategic' policy is no argument at all.

Come up with something of substance to argue with.

[adorno]

...if the Ukranian offensive is successful, (say Crimea is overrun) then the Russian will see themselves being defeated, and reduced to being an American vassal

Not true at all.

Crimea was a part of Ukraine, or at least controlled by Ukraine before 2014, with no real consequences to Russia. Russia wanted Crimea, and took it. After taking Crimea, they notices that there were no consequences, so, why not try for all of Ukraine. History teaches us that, aggression gone unchecked always leads to more aggression. Russia has been at it for about 100 years, so, it's nothing new to them.

Putin and Russia bit into a lot more than they could handle, and they needed to be stopped.

[Mariner]

I had the clearances and the jobs and saw the plans and policies.

And you never had anything but ignorance.

[adorno]

I had the clearances and the jobs and saw the plans and policies.

Oh, my bad!

I had no idea you were an inside man (woman?).

So, how well have those policies worked to keep the world safe from war, especially from nuclear war or from nuclear threats? Hmm... seems like Putin doesn't respect those policies, or he's not aware of them. Go get him, or report him to the UN.

[crz]

With all due respect. Ukraine has already stated that Russia needs to be hit with tactical nuclear weapons.
The Biden regime did not comment on that statement.

You dont think those son of a bitches wouldnt use one if they had one? HUH!?

[adorno]

You dont think those son of a bitches wouldnt use one if they had one? HUH!?

Nope! It's all bluster. Just doing unto them as Putin hass done to them. Putin talks tough, but, the Ukrainians can talk tough too.

And, even if they could get their hands on a nuke, the Ukrainians would have to go it alone, with no support from the U.S. or NATO.

Is that too hard to understand?

HUH???

[crz]

Nope..as usual you BOYS have no clue.

Your hero’s’ queer ma zel and shitty pants bidet need to keep the gravy train going.

Does not matter if a few billion get killed it all fits the agenda..the Great Reset Agenda you all worship at the alter of.

Is that hard to understand? HUH?

You and your ilk ARE THE ENEMY.

[davidb56]

No you’re still wrong, and “wanting” Nato to step in won’t change the fact that they won’t Nuke Russia.

[adorno]

No you’re still wrong

If Russian uses nuclear weapons for a ground war, then Russia will get nuked, for sure, 100%. Putin knows it, and that's why the only thing he can do is use threats. Russia has been using threat for about 1.5 years, and they will do so until the war is over, but no nukes from either side. So, you're still wrong.
