    But  how does that work. By the time you are nuked its too late. Stupid example. You cant nuke back after  you are nuked. You can punch back after  a punch! 
    For one, why not? For that to be true Putin would have to take out an entire country at once. Half of US gets nuked, I’m pretty sure the other half would want to retaliate. 
    But let’s assume not. There’s lots of nuclear countries. If all of Europe gets nuked and taken out at once I’m pretty sure the US wouldnt just stand there and do nothing. 
    So yes, you can nuke and get juked back just like you can lunch and get punched back. You can take out a little kid with one punch too, but then his big brother is going to come after you.
     Bottom line is there would be dire consequences for using nukes.

    Also, before a nuke has landed - mid-punch - the other sides nuke would go off. I would reckon.

    I think some are forgetting that there are defense shields all over the world.  @static111 had some good info the other day.  

    Putin getting the cold shoulder from China is really critical.  Love how the world is uniting.

    maybe all of those "freedom fighting" truckers who said they were fighting a tyrannical dictator might want to do it for real now that playtime is over?

    For real.  Same with the January 6 knuckleheads.  They've all been conditioned to believe they are being oppressed by being a part of society.

    Great idea, but not likely to happen.
    I saw this open invitation to join the Ukraine defensive forces in a brief article last night and with this whole thing having me so rankled, my first reaction was, "If I were much younger than I am...".

    US is now sending Stinger missles to supplement what Germany stepped up with first.

    ukraine is hanging in there and i am super impressed and super proud of their resolve. 

    i really wish russia would be getting counterattacked though.
