WTF are people talking about a world war? This is Russia vs Ukraine that is equipped by the US/Europe. Who is going to join Russia in a world war? Where is this world war going to take place? Is the Russian navy going to attack Hawaii or send submarines off the eastern coast of the US? Are we bringing back the draft?

This is laughable.

China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Belarus, South Africa, India, Iran

China visiting with Putin today, who said he expects Xi to visit him in Russia soon

Russia, China, and South Africa just conducted Navy drills together

Saudi Arabia and India already have expressed interest in helping Russia avoid sanctions with a new reserve currency with China as well

North Korea ramping up their missles and firing them at Japan seems like every week now

Belarus is nothing more than a shadow government for Russia in Belarus

Iran's Uranium enrichment has increased to new highs, and I feel like they are making weapons for Russia or China




They really haven't been keeping it a secret :manny:

You're grossly uninformed lmao

None of those countries are doing shyt in a conventional war

Saudi Arabia is not going to say boo
Belarus could just as easily revolt and they don't have a serious military
South Africa is currently having an energy crisis and is just lol in general
China and India are more at odds than not
Iran can't get out of its own way

You truly believe there's a chance any of those countries you listed would sacrifice themselves on behalf of russia's desire to take ukrainian land?

China has thus far refused to go to war over Taiwan, but they're going to do so over Kherson? :why:

India is next door to their sworn enemy and all they're willing to do is some cross border shelling, a border skirmish every couple of decades and non stop syp games.....but they're going to war over russia's claims to Crimea? :heh:

Saudi Arabia and Iran hate each other with a passion, they support terrorist attacks in each others countries but never fielded their armies....but all that's going to change over.....the Donetsk :jbhmm:

India isn't joining Russia in the war, because the US is the only thing keeping them from being attacked by China. Same with the Saudis. They might act up, but everytime Iran gets out of line, they come running to DC. Putin isn't going to be able to help them if shyt goes down.

South Africa is a non factor, and if North Korea is less than that. South Korea will bulldoze through the North easily if they wanted to.

Edit: I would also go as far as to say that North Korea owes Washington an apology. If the us military pulls out of Asia, South Korea and Japan would probably have taken out Kim jong by now

I agree with first point. A lot of the machinery is just going along hoping/waiting for putin to die or be pushed out internally.

I also agree that knowing you're about to die can push otherwise "rational" people to take chances or make moves that are dangerous. But I think the "world war" and "nukes" talk is seriously overblown, and frankly plays into russian hands. They're hoping it frightens european governments and people who aren't as invested in the conflict into pushing for a negotiated end to the war, which would guarantee that russia gets to keep some part of ukraine.

The machinery of the russian military/security services etc will not allow putin to use nukes - these are people who are going to be around no matter who is their president. You really think they're willing to risk their families and future for putin? People need to realize that putin isn't God. He (or his policies) may be popular, but he's not a hitler or emperor hirohito like figure who the people look to as a god. He is not THE power. He is the chosen representative of the power (sivloki).

The guy who is so conscious of his legacy wants to go down as the one who ensured his homeland ends up a radioactive wasteland for the next thousand years? When the army refuses what's he going to do? Push everyone out the window?

I don't necessarily think it'll be a World War, but eventually Russia is going to get tired of Poland sending equipment to Ukraine and US just replenishing whatever they send. There's talk of sending fighters to Ukraine. If that happens, Russia is basically just sending people to get turned to mulch, if they aren't already.

My hope is his own military ignores his orders in this scenario. While most of the world acts sane and rational, I can imagine a scenario where Russia fires on Polish supply lines; article 5, I know...and Poland launches an attack into Russia. If Russians are killed in Russia, I think all bets are off on who they start tossing Sarmats at.

I think this because the only scenario I can see a nuclear exchange popping off is a much better equipped military; NATO; would mop the fukking floor with Russia. There would be nothing they can do, but launch some tactical strikes at NATO bases.

My prediction for this war is, it will just continue in perpetuity until 2024. However, i think China starts to send equipment to Russia. This allows China to see how well their equipment is, because for all their tech its not battle tested; it could be garbage for all everyone knows.

Pending the US election results, that'll determine if the west continues to fund Ukraine. If it stays blue, I think Putin's own people will commit regicide if the war persists. I think if it turns red, the military aid drops sharply. Ukraine inevitably concedes all the territory lost. Russia retools and tries it again in 5-7 years either with Transnistria or even Ukraine again. In my mind, Russia wants the old federation back and they have to start absorbing countries because their population is terminal. The Russian ethnicity will be Native American status within the next 100 years.

EDIT: This nikka man...:snoop::mjgrin:

Putin wanted to boast about Russia launching a nuclear capable ICBM
