If they launch any type of ICBM or other type missile at the US, there is no way to tell if missile is loaded with conventional ordinance or a nuke.

US will launch its own in a “use them or lose them” strategy and it’s all over.

Plus, there is no credible missile defense system for either side at the moment. No system that can stop the magnitude of offensive missile launched anyway. We could perhaps destroy 2-3 missles from a rogue state on a lucky day.

The best market in the world to trade with would be shuddered.

The world would plunge into devastating economic collapse that would kill billions.


What's in it for Russia?

How does that help their people thrive?

Depends. If it’s any of our large inner cities, we send them payment for the demolition.

Both nations would cease to exist.

What’s the point of this thread?

1) how do we know they are conventional war heads inbound.?

2) if we have incoming ICBMs do we assume they are nukes?

Since we cannot confirm war heads and we have a nuke capable missile inbound we have to assume a first strike attack with nukes…..response would be like in kind….

Russia would find out rather quickly why the U.S. doesn’t have state-funded healthcare and would cease to exist as a functional society in a first strike scenario.

I pretty sure Russia already has them, but if they don’t, we have nothing to worry about.

Nope.

Russia is huge. 98% of Americans in CONUS will be dead or dying after a full strike.

Siberians will live. Putin will take that before he lets the children of his country start cutting their dicks off. We are at the tipping point.

It’s not like we have sensors to determine whether ICBM’s heading toward you is conventional or nuclear. Both sides know that, and so they would never launch a conventional attack on us only to be met by a nuclear retaliation, and we would never respond with a conventional missile attack in kind, but rather assume it’s nuclear, especially when nuclear saber rattling beforehand causes you to immediately believe they were serious. It’s a ridiculous question in the first place. The first and last time Russia launches missiles at the US will be the first and last time Russia launches missiles at the US. It’s going to be nuclear.

Putin only cares about Moscow and StPetersburg. That is why the majority of the death is Ukraine are from minorities from the east….

This is a curious (self loathing??) perspective especially in light of other previously neutral counties now wanting to join NATO.

If "The World" was sick and tired of the US then you would see the world aligning themselves with Russia...
