we haz nukes

they do too

tru

which is why i really dont think it would be as cut and dry as we would declair open war

if russia handed over the agents they claim were "responsible" i bet we would wash our hands and call it a day

just going off normal responses here, not suggesting anything crazy

yea but putin cant turn over the agents. It would make him appear weak

exactly

I think it is time to elect Vermin Supreme

look weak or have a nuke at your throat.......... i bet he goes weak

if he doesnt get ousted

almost all cases of the eastern powers being difficult is meant to be a sign of strength

there comes a point where russia would have a response of their own

and we wont touch russia

if "their guy"

was found out

Nah, they'd just take sanctions, and then dodge them with 3rd parties

and everything will be the same again

how strong will putin appear to russia at that point

his own party would kick him out

cant nuke them and invading russia never works unless you are the mongols

or hand him over to avoid war

they wuoldn't hand him over

cuz thats a sign to each other that they're weak, and could just be next the next time the US would make demands

i think you way overestimate their allegience to putin

you can only sanction the russians so much

its not allegiance to putin at all

But if 10 people are all willing to sell the otehr 9 out

they'd have no trust to work togetehr

he is really popular

so the first one to become the "leader" would execute the other 9 cuz they can't be trusted anymore

cuz they sold Putin out too

its possible

i cant really say one way or the other

i would like to think the russian people would come into play at some point, but cant really count on them doing much

awww yes the purge of leadership

well if they get caught, he likely will be brought up on some international charges... at least i would think? i am not really sure how that would work

but this is all just supposing that there is something there

i dont really think there is

i think the groups posting the ads are the most they will come up with

if they got caught, Russia would get sanctions, which they then dodge with a 3rd party

And the same masses that believe the establishment from "non-russia" countries would be content cuz Muh russia gotting dem sanctions!
