"And if the Chechens seized a Russian nuclear sub, they'd use the missiles on Moscow not the US, so where exactly is the downside??" Well, other than the loss of millions of innocent lives and the loss of the major regional obstacle to radical islam, all I can think of is the minor matter of the bastards sitting there with their still-operational sub, asking "how long would it take for us to aim the remaining rockets at the USA?"

What would actually happen is that the guy holding the garage handy-light would say, "Selim, don't mess with the green wire...Selim, leave the green wire
alone...SELIM, DON'T MESS WITH THAT GREEN WIRE YOU CAMEL-FORNICAT--"
(A tremendously loud explosion is heard.)

Don't cry to me about millions of innocent lost lives, others here are ready to nuke any country you can name without any thought about innocents in those countries. How many people on Free Republic were shouting Nuke Afghainstan??? What about the millions of innocents there? Or is there like some differentiation between nukeable innocents and non nukeable innocents? If so, give me the specifics ....
Besides that, you don't think the Russian government wouldn't stab the US in the back if the incentive was great enough and the chance for retaliation small?? They'd do it in a heartbeat ..
