Younger folks probably ought to buy a copy of the movie "The Day After". That looked pretty bad, and was hypothesized to be minute compared to the real thing. USSR got all pissed off when the movie showed on TV because it made it look like they started the war. Some serious talking started shortly thereafter, and it really got serious after Reagan started talking about Star Wars Missile Defense System. That just about scared the shite out of the Russians.

and what would that accomplish, exactly? they would get blown the frick away and everyone (including china) would turn on them
that would be like a larger (and more devastating for us and probably europe) gulf war (the first one)

At least the Soviets went down peacefully. I don't know that I trust our overlords to do the same when things like the energy supply gets tight -- and you can make the case that the neocons initiated the plan that accounts for that.
