Here are my thoughts:

Our defense budget in Europe is about to quadruple, heavy NATO forces in Eastern Europe, and the biggest one heavyweight propaganda against America in Russian media, and now the embassador too. It seems Russia wants a fight, but my problem is that they cannot afford it. So the only possible way is nuclear strike. And not just any, but from both coasts with nuclear submarines involved, and a must-have turned off nuclear response. Turning it "off" is a must for this scenario, since otherwise it's a nuclear desert for both sides.
I am interested especially in our Air Forces responds, especially comes to mind that ICBM mishap where 1 something million got lost due to technical error of maintenance. Also artic base of Russian forces comes to mind with possible nuclear submarines location. What are your thoughts?

Do you want to hear what a female political punk band thinks in Russia? check out Pussy Riot!
They are the thorn in the side of Putin. It is their version of Rage Against the Machine

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - and they look pretty normal in a Russian/Soviet court room. Girl next door types when not wearing the baclava.

SFC William Farrell - yes, the Church and the East Orthodox Priests forgave them but not Putin. They were put on a show trial and I think they served 2 or 3 years.. It did get them worldwide attention. They were/are Political prisoners.

Unlikely, unless one side or the other commits a gross miscalculation. While both the US and Russia struggle for influence and access to resources... both of us benefit from world trade and have more to lose than gain in War.

SSG (Join to see) - i think Asia- yes, but not Europe, it has Russia as a first next door neighbor. Why would it become just a buffer for America? And Russia been showing it's teeth. England separated too just now. It's like everyone already knows what's up besides USA. USA is just a dying mammoth now.

CPT Kirill *Russian* Varshavskiy - The EU is dominated by Germany and France, and the US is quite popular in both of those countries, I suspect the same is true in Eastern Europe... however I don't have any contacts there, so I'm not going to speculate. With or without the UK, the EU is a major regional power and Russia is trying to flex it's muscles along with China to establish themselves as major regional powers. The US is the only remaining super power and we are on our way to becoming a major regional power instead of a superpower. I don't see that as necessarily being a bad thing, the less we have to do with that soup sandwich known as the middle east the better. Europe is big and strong enough to deal with Russian aggression and in all likelihood China and Russia will soon start bumping heads again.

CPT Kirill *Russian* Varshavskiy - If we don't really care about the Ukraine or Georgia... how are we screwed? All Putin is doing is making former Warsaw pact nations awfully glad they signed up for NATO when they did.

Russia faces most of the same Geo-political threats as the US and Europe. Conflict in the Middle East causing global instability, Islamic extremism, climate change, market upheaval caused by disruptive technologies and financial practices.

How Russia deals with Georgia and Ukraine will have a major impact on how it's viewed by the rest of the world, however neither of those states are really a priority for most of the world.
