Stuff it Poutine. We aren’t scared of WWIII because you would never dare nuke us because we will end your world and call your bluff because you know as well as we do that you don’t have real nukes like we do.
If so, Britain will have to invade Russia with the two men and eight drag queens that comprise its current army.
Cameron needs to return to the dignity of apolitical retired life.
The willful stupidity of the west regarding this war is certainly in keeping with the times we live in.
Hilarious.
Last night I got Russia stopped meddling in our country after 100 and some odd years just because.......and the commies and Marxists destroying the nation are just leftist radicals.
Tonight, I get to LOL at the guy who would be hard pressed to take out pita and hummus stands issuing threats.
I know this is over without the extra $1,000,000,000,000 from climatescam fuel prices when Pres Trump’s drill,drill,drill hits but the comedy will surely be missed.
It’s kind of a pickle. Say a Brit base or building gets hit with a hypersonic. Ok, NATO would declare war.
So then what? 75k regulars in the UK. Reserves and all, 110k. No strategic bombers. No Navy anymore. 213 Challenger Tanks. They gonna attack Russia? If they drag in the Germans and Dutch, Poles and US? Think the public here would stand for the US woke army on the eastern front?
And here’s the kicker if the DC/London axis gets the conventional war the fantasize about. If everything goes well, and they are pushing towards Moscow and the Russian Army is crumbling.... THAT is a guarantee that the ICBMs will fly and DC and London will be gone.
This whole thing is crazy.
I mean, think about it. Everyone thinks nukes as a response. But if some Brit weapon does something bad enough, say a Brit missile hits the Victory Day parade right in Red Square killing hundreds or something very off the hook like Ukes would do? So what happens if Russia responds by torpedoing one of their new carriers, or blows up Big Ben Tower in London?
Then what? Would we go first strike nuke, ensuring we, the Brits and Europe are flattened? Nope.
Is our military anywhere close to being ready to launch a land war into Russia? Nope.
So what happens if the bluff is called?
And I see nobody trying to deescalate anything.
I still haven’t seen any news on the 2023 Russian spring offensive?
I did notice that a 2024 spring offensive was notably absent from the schedule and spring is almost over.
Why bother? Britain is self-destructing on its own.
The old Soviet arsenals are on track to be expended next year, all other things remaining equal.
A significant factor about striking targets in Russia, is that it would stress declining Russian air defense assets, dramatically further.
Will they protect the front, the refineries, the factories or the Capital? They don’t have enough to protect everything, and their total number of Air Defense systems continues declining.
We are entering a new phase of the war, with more advanced (but still outdated) Western capabilities being provided to Ukraine, like longer range ATCMS and F-16s (with their suite of munitions capabilities). The attrition is going to cut deeper into the old Soviet aviation assets, economy and Defense Industrial Base, as the ground combat equipment reserves are going through their last hurrah this year and next.
The balance of power is shifting, as Putin continues to pour his Soviet military inheritance into the grinder, and NATO and Allied defense budgets have increased in total, much more than Russia’s.
Time is not on Russia’s side, if the West doesn’t quit. This Congress could pass the 2025 aid appropriation before adjourning, and that would pretty much polish off the old Soviet fleets of Armored vehicles and Artillery, as well as several other key military capabilities.
Then China can pounce.
