That should not be a big worry I am sure the Leopard tank and the British Challenger tanks will be able to punch nice big holes in any Russian Tanks.

But like you said one trigger happy pilot could start it all.
LOL I hope that pilot does not make the mistake of dropping a Japanese plane, if anybody think's for half a second the Japanese are just sitting back they might want to re consider.

I read a novel last year (I can’t recall the title or author) but the story was about how eventually the US and China lob nuclear middles at each other. What it came down to was that fundamental differences in culture, how each side thinks, how they view themselves and others created a situation where they couldn’t communicate or understand each other. Basically they couldn’t find common ground or understand each other’s perspective.

As I understand it, the people of China are not allowed to think freely or communicate freely. They are constantly being watched by their government. It’s definitely a twilight zone compared to most western countries.

Just a repeat of history over and over, right now three dictators in charge of three countries upsetting the whole world balance China, Russia and North Korea.
The populations of all three countries completely indoctrinated by their own systems. Its pretty funny in a way these guys not only do not care about their people they don't seem to care much about each other. If they did folks in North Korea might not be so hungry and that's for food not freedom.

During operational exercises with US Army tank crews,our crews using Leopard II's regularly run circles around the M1A2 crews. It PO's them to no end.LOL The Russians ain't got a hope.

Our government seems to be using the same tactic. If you crank inflation through the roof to keep people pre-occupied with putting food on the table and a roof over their heads,freedom takes a back seat.
If a tree falls on your ex in the woods and nobody hears it,you should probably still get rid of your chainsaw. Just sayin'....

trimmer,
"Our government seems to be using the same tactic. If you crank inflation through the roof to keep people pre-occupied with putting food on the table and a roof over their heads, freedom takes a back seat."
Well there is a gigantic gaping flaw in your reasoning because almost every country in the western world is going thought the exact same problem?
If you think its bad here in Scotland you get a fine for taking to long to eat a meal and an even bigger one for parking to long at your local McDonalds.

I've heard people talking about WWIII since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Anyone else old enough to remember watching "Duck and Cover" in class? I came to the conclusion while huddled under my grade school desk during an air raid drill that there wasn't much I could do to prevent it from happening and feel the same way today. I save my concerns for the things I can change not the ones I can't.

Congrats!! You just won the daily internet. I remember those days well,too. All we could do,in reality,is bend over,grab your ankles and kiss your a** goodbye.
