I don't think NATO or the US or China has any interest in a war with
Russia. Russia possesses approximately 6,000 nuclear warheads as of 2022—the largest stockpile of nuclear weapons in the world. Nearly half of the world's 12,700 nuclear weapons are owned by Russia; by comparison, the United States has about 4000 weapons. |

Taiwan is about 100 miles from mainland China - a lot closer than Pearl Harbor was to Japan.

I think that some are remembering that History. That's why many are surrendering to the Ukrainians.

I wish that was true, but unfortunately, authoritarian regimes are on the INCREASE, not decrease, at this time in History. I too hope that it changes, but things could easily get worse before they get better. A world organization that tracks the direction that various countries are heading, classifies the US as "tending autocratic". Considering how people of our age have grown up patriotically believing and fighting for the US as the leader of free democracies, it is a special insult to our age group to hear that and realize that it is true!

Maybe we should pull back "business-wise".

However this throw weight advantage means that serious consideration would be given to decapitation strikes without warning to reduce their effectiveness. Counterforce nuclear strikes including emp blasts and cyber destruction of the command and control authority would happen. This is why putin is afraid. The military hierarchy and oligarchs surrounding him understand this all too well. That's why you have both sen. Graham and president biden calling for putin's removal. Hopefully someone over there reads the memo. |

i don't remember the name of the organization. Just how they were ranking countries. And they said that only 25% of world countries were pure democracies and dictatorships and leaning autocratic added up to 75%. And I don't see the UN as some googie man organization. It is very much needed today, to render aid and decide legal disputes.

1. Relating to a ruler who has absolute power. 2.taking no account of other people's wishes or opinions. So please explain for us how we are " trending" autocratic . Specifically. Who is our ruler? And do we not have free elections that respect our collective wishes and opinions. Ball is in your court. |

I suspect Russia will turn Kiev and Odessa into rubble before this is over and annex the east and south of Ukraine to gain total control of the north Black Sea. Russia and China need each other to survive...and both have nukes. Any China capitulation is just for PR.
