If Belarus invades too now we're talking really bad business. It will escalate for sure, as Nato will not like it. Someone needs to man up in Russia and eliminate the little man before he destroys the world and it will happen if he lobs the first Nuke. Prepare yourselves guys if this happens then the American Soy Boys will be the least of our problems.

Belarus is Russia’s dog.

This is turning into a WWI type powder keg with WWII type expansionist aggression.

Balkans are on deck next.

Stating that NATO has made Aggressive Statements.

Some Soviet plans were based on the idea they could use tactical nukes on non-nuclear NATO nations without risking a return use of tactical nukes. Their seven days to the Rhine plan was to use tactical nukes to stage a break out—-but these would not be used against Britain and France because they have their own nuclear weapons. NATO has always made it clear an attack on one is an attack on all. So, a nuclear attack on any NATO nation would invite a nuclear response. Frankly, I think it’s pretty shaky logic to assume a tactical nuclear attack that kills a US division in Germany is not likely to invite at the very least, a US tactical nuclear response to Soviet spearheads in Germany.

It was always assumed such a war would end in a negotiated settlement to avoid a strategic nuclear exchange. The assumption by the Soviet seven days to Rhine plan was that NATO would not use nukes until later in the war and the Soviets could use that time to I grab a lot territory—-thus vastly improving their negotiating position. The assumptions in their seven days to Rhine blitz attack were pretty chilling.

During negotiations, Belarus fired a missile into Ukraine hitting an airport in Northern Ukraine. Then this from Anonymous

If Russia was serious about talks they wouldn't be sending their Chechnya armies into Ukraine and Belarus wouldn't be firing missiles into Ukraine.

lol---Yes---Its a well known fact that totalitarian governments dont handle dissent well. I wonder if any generals are getting calls from their Russian counterparts telling the US they will not follow any Putin orders to attack the US with nukes. Prolly not....

That said---I suspect the idea that Russian Central Bank assets might be frozen---along with the Ruble value plunging like rock might be having an affect on Putin. I mean---the Ruble plunging 50% or more at the same time the supply of goods is already restrained due to Covid----means instant hyper-inflation is likely coming to the Russian people. That IS a problem for Putin---especially once body bags with young men from Russia start coming back from Ukraine. The Central Bank move is financial nuclear war and Putin will feel that. He was probably counting on that slush fund to weather the sanctions.

I read prior to the invasion Russia already had tactical nuclear cannons set up along its borders at certain points so nuclear capabilities were already in a state of readiness.

Too late to induce fear at this point.

This is my opinion. IF the ruskies do lob a nuke to whomever all bets are off for stopping this war. On the contrary it will just open up the skies for everyone to try to offense is a better defense strategy. Russia and many other countries will disappear in a flash of light. We will not have to worry about New York, LA, Washington, etc. etc. El Paso will have a lot of glass instead of sand.

I hope someone has the guts to eliminate this little Napoleon for the good of the world.

Yup. Aint nothing about the Ukraine situation is going to matter if the strategic nukes are unleashed. I think Putin's generals overthrow him in a coup if Putin orders them to start a nuclear war. His generals know better than anyone that nobody survives that exchange---anywhere. Most computer models indicate anyone who survives a full strategic nuclear exchange probably starves to death in the nuclear winter that follows. Maybe it might be limited to just a small exchange of battlefield tactical nukes----but once that genie is out of the bottle---it can quickly all spiral out of control.
