    Sounds like a lot of work, expense, and sacrifice. Better make sure you have a strong economy by maybe not having 100,000 Americans dying from a single drug alone every year and an open border those enemies could further use to weaken, destabilize, and sabotage the population and institutions you’re going to need to win all those wars with.

    I should have said 'the Mujahideen' but I can't spell it.

    No problem we can invade all countries responsible for Fentanyl entering the U.S. and kill them

    Too funny :) First off .. it is not the countries who are responsible for Fentanyl entering the US .. it is the drug cartels. Second .. let us say someone claims "China is Responsible" We are not going to invade China over it.. so while we can dream .. of some Hollywood fantasy .. let us not confuse this with reality .. which is that China is a nuclear power .. and can make US go away .. poof ..poof .. :)

    Your anti nuclear fantasies not withstanding China could not destroy the U.S. in a nuclear exchange. I refer you to an article by two arms control experts in 'Foreign Affairs magazine that details U..S. superiority over China when it comes to nuclear arms.

    Because it's called 'the Department of Defense' and we spend a fortune 'defending' our country.

    So it would be nice if they did a bit, just a tiny bit, of defense for a change.

    (It's the people who call it the 'Department of Defense' who are misleading the public.)

    We have been through this before Dayton --- you were corrected previously on your claim that Russia could not turn the continental US into an uninhabitable wasteland.. .. calculation done for you .. and turns out that less than 10% of Russia's arsenal was required.

    How many nukes was calculated previously - and how many nukes does China have ? ..

    China could make a huge mess, I won't detail how, but it sure would.

    The bigger question is why all of a sudden, the US wants wars with nuclear powers?

    Does Biden want a super duper 4th of July?

    and I've provided multiple expert sources that show you are completely wrong

    You provided sources that confirmed my claims and not yours --- a lack of understanding of the subject matter on your part and now this false memory issue .. but, is not the first time .. getting more regular.

    Support your claim Brother Dayton -- provide a source that shows that US is not a contaminated waste-land after a full scale nuclear attack from Russia .. all ground bursts of course.

    :) :) :) Busted !

    Why do they have to all be ground bursts?

    Because that is how you turn the USA into a contaminated waste land ?? and how else would you do the calculation ?

    Prove your claim of lying and produce this source -- and when you can't -- who then is the one caught in a lie of their own creation.

    we are talking Russia because you brought it up .. these supposed sources of yours were in relation to my claims about Russia being able to turn US into contaminated waste-land .

    Lets see this Source Dayton .. or apologize for calling folks Liars when its you who can't seem to prove your claims and false accusations true..

    Prove it FF
    IIRC most of the calculations regarding results from a nuclear war assume that the warheads are divided about equally between groundbursts and air bursts..

    If you had any knowledge of this subject you would know that

    Good luck with that fiction bro, that’s way too costly for it to even be mostly realistic.

    "Years Ago" - you gave a number of sources .. none of which supported your vapid made up claims. and now .. like so many other times .. you run around crying Liar Liar" because you are unable to support your false claim ..by producing an article that supports your claim.

    The only thing "Pathological" is having your claims proven false .. then coming around years later pretending that your claim was proven .. when that simply was not the case.

    Now either produce some support for this vapid claim of yours .. or apologize for falsely accusing others of lying .. and projection of your failure onto others.

    LOL .. there is no law that dictates that Russia must send equal ground and air bursts. who is the one who lacks knowledge of the subject here .. trying to project their failings onto others.

    Russia has only to send a fraction of their arsenal if the objective is to turn the Continental US into a contaminated waste-land .. and obviously then can .. and probably would choose mostly ground bursts if that was the objective.

    Your claim that Russia does not have such capability is made up nonsense .. IIRC assumptions having Zero bearing on the issue.

    Where is this article you falsely claimed refuted this claim.. so we can review and laugh once more at this abysmal failure on your part.

    because you do it so often .. and so every time you do it .. I have to remind you "your doing it again". Do you find having your mistakes corrected bothersome ? .. the best thing I can suggest is to then stop making them .. and take log out of own eye and heed the teachings of Jesus rather than disrespecting the fellow.

    Now -- after that silly rabbit hole deflection -- would you intending to provide support for false accusation at some point or carry on about how you are upset about folks pointing out your continued habit of putting your failings onto others ?

    Contaminated wasteland Dayton -- that is what we are discussing .. the number of ground bursts required to make continental US mostly uninhabitable .. you were going to come up with a number Dayton .. crying out "Lie Lie LIe" when shown the Bikini Island Calculation.

    You miss the obvious. If we're going to talk about ground bursts to get an idea of required nuclear weapons we have to consider the yield of those nuclear weapons because things like explosive force determines how high and how widespread the damageis.

    Likewise we have to consider the terrain and atmospheric conditions where nuclear weapons are detonate,

    Try reading FF, you'll learn.

    Good grief ---- No kidding we have to calculate yield and explosive force .. how was it me that missed the obvious when I did those calculations for you .. because you had no idea how to do them ... ?

    and what those calculations showed was that Russia could easily turn USA into a radioactive wasteland. Do you not remember ? I even gave you the website that does the blast calculations for you .. takes all those factors you mentioned into consideration .. calculates the area contaminated to wasteland levels for each blast.

    Do you seriously not remember or are you just pretending not to remember (again) as some kind of wonky debate tactic.

    Projecting again ? tsk tsk .. must try harder to formulate an argument friend.. something you have put some thought into would be nice .. something other than "Hiding out in tree tops - shouting out rude names" :)

    Out of curiosity what would it take for you to change your opinions about Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush?
