My point is, they are no threat to the US. They are a sad little country.

“My point is, they are no threat to the US. They are a sad little country”

Seriously? You’re joking, right?

The West makes them a threat by their actions/inactions.

The US would have a hard time winning a ground war against Russia. Our woke army
Would be in for a rude awakening.

The West’s only hope be a war of long-range missile attacks and hope we get off more than they do.

Russia has hypersonic long-range missiles, the latest being the Sarmat, meaning “eternal”, which is a hypersonic intercontinental ballistic missile, weighing 100 tons (the US biggest is the minute man weighing 35 tons) with a range of 18,000 km.

This allows it to carry up to 15 nuclear warheads, up to 75kt. In comparison the bomb we dropped on Hiroshima was 15kt.

Such capacity would be able to destroy an area as large as the country of France.

And all of this would go undetected, as we have no defense for such a missile.

Now, tell me again how we have nothing to fear from a sad little country.
