I just heard a quote from Khrushchev, speaking with JFK, when JFK told Khrushchev "we could destroy you many times over" Khrushchev replied "once is enough for me" I guess that applies also to France and the UK, with about 300 nukes each. So Russia would need to hit the US, France and the UK. That is a nightmare. The problem could be if one side or the other thinks they have the technology to stop the others missiles. Makes you wonder what type of lunatic would want to corner Russia in the first place. Now Albo is joining in.

Six months ago I believed Putin to be sane, rational. Now? Not so much and I have a nagging doubt that he believes in MAD if all else fails. But he still would only contemplate such a crazy act with Biden in the WH.

There are two Asian leaders that I am NOT so sanguine about though.
