    America and Israel are used to enemies who can’t fight back; this is why before the government invaded Iraq they made absolutely sure Iraq didn’t have WMDs. There’s a good reason they’re not gonna pick that fight with North Korea.

      I used to think this was ironclad, but now American proxies are blowing up Russian strategic bombers with CIA help alongside terrorist attacks targeting passenger trains and civilian bridges. Shouldn’t Russia having nukes prevent this kind of bullshit? It used to, but the crazies in the west seem to have passed the point of no return.

        I dunno if you’re old enough to remember the Cold War, but both sides having nukes definitely did not stop the US and Russia from fucking with each other, shooting down aircraft, bombing shit, and especially spying and sabotage. All it stopped is open warfare, but even then it’s debatable since we had several proxy wars.
