How US Is Completely Save From Russian Weapons by Biodun556(op):
US doesn't feel threatened of any sophisticated weapons an opponent may possess as long as it successfully brings the war to the door step of the enemy.


This is the reason why Russia will not spare Ukraine.

Ukraine has given US an advantage over Russia by accepting to fight on behalf of US.

Russia is in fact, at a brink.


Nuclear armed shot range missile will not give Russia any opportunity to retaliate.

US has successfully limites any form of Russia response to Europe by establishing military bases in Russia neighboring countries.

It was not a coincidence when US pull out of non proliferation of short range missile agreement with Russia during Trump's first term.

It will not be a surprise, if Trump continues to arm Ukraine because it is now clearer than US now has advantage over Russia.

There's no country in America that's willing to play the role Ukraine is playing for US, for Russia. This is why Russia is building faster missiles.

Nothing is certain in war... I don't rate US because they have never being directed involved in a war. Always fighting through proxy and alliance.

No alliance and no proxy, Russian army defeats US soldiers.

It is US who is scared not Russia.

I long for a multipolar world....

It is time to end the unnecessary war in Ukraine. It is not getting anywhere!

Only if ops consider the number of nuclear war heads that are roaming the water in US backyard he will have a rethink

Finally you understand! Only took a few years. Lol.

While Russia was busy with Ukraine, other neighbors of Russia signed up to NATO like Finland and doubled NATO's border with Russia. Poland is also ready to host weapons of NATO including nukes.

While the chances of stopping Russia's hypersonic missiles are 20-30%, it becomes advantageous to sneak up close to Russia, where allies won't need a Mach 20 missile to retaliate.

In war no one is completely safe & mind you, no one has a monopoly of madness.

According to my instinct, "the only way to avoid a lost is to avoid a war". There's no short cut to a peaceful world than to respect each other's sovereignty. Anything outside that would be disastrous.

That's an exaggeration. The Japanese underestimated the United States and got hit by a show of force to strong it sent ripples into the future.

I'd say dropping two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki respectively is direct involvement.

we in 2024 now...Maybe over the air or in the waters but US ground troops cannot defeat Russia land soldiers.

Ask the Germans.

You said "War". This includes air, land and sea.

However, i agree Russia has strong ground troops but also note that same troops have been captured by Ukranian soldiers in the ongoing war.

My brother even in air or sea Russia still have edge over the US, those guys have hypersonic missiles that no air defense system could intercept, this is why the US will never even dream of engaging Russia in a direct military confrontation.

Hv you seen all the weapons USA has in store. USA don't boast around... You should know that all these weapons USA is giving Ukraine are old weapons just to empty their old piles.

I'm pro Russia

But the fact as it is now

US can strike Russia in seconds but it will take Russia 30 minutes to one hour to reach US mainland

It takes US seconds to strike Russia but before Russia could get to US mainland it may take 30 minutes to 1 hr

Venezuela and Cuba are the only staunch Russia supporters in American continent but can never accommodate Russia military base

Russian soldiers were killed in Mali. Ukraine that is fighting with us weapons is also dealing blows to Russian troops. Nothing is certain in war. Everybody loses no strong man in war. Us is very powerful and should not be underestimated.
That's why Iran fights with proxies.
Russia is also powerful but they have lost alot in the current war due to mistakes from their leaders.

Lol. Child talk. So far there's four nations that have openly tested a hypersonic missile: USA, China, Russia and India.

Note that India had theirs for a while before testing it publicly. You can't sit in your house in Nigeria and claim no other Nation has hypersonic missile until they decide to come out and test it.

USA has the most powerful navy in the world. This was built with money and the best brains. Russia is not as rich as America and Russia knows this.

Let's stop all the childish talk that will make even Putin laugh when he reads it.

Why do you think US needs military base close to enemy when they have aircraft carriers and submarines?


Before Russia submarine move close to US, Russia would been destroyed.

US has already deployed nuclear capable missiles around Russia borders

Although, when we talk about missile technology, Russia is number one. But fact still remains that US has upper hand and has plans far ahead of Russia.


No matter how fast a missile or a fighter jet is, it will take 30 minutes to 1 hr to reach US mainland and US would have been alerted

But Russia won't get any notice should US decides to annihilate Russia any moment because there's no gap.

And if Russia is destroyed the submarines will still be able to strike and then the dead hand will still be able to strike. The thing is any country that will strike Russia with nuclear war head,such country will totally be destroyed, Russia will even have more chances of surviving than the attacker because of their landmass

. Funny guy. You guys overrate Russia. Same Russia whose land is under Ukrainian occupation? Do you know what that mean? A foreign army occupying your territory means you are not fit to be a country,it's practically a failed state. Ukraine is almost a stone throw from Russia yet Russia can't run over it in almost 3yrs. What I am saying is that Russia should show her might in this war as this will serve as a deterrent to the west thereby establishing themselves as a legitimate world power, anything aside this, Russia has fallen short of my expectations. Mind you, I am pro Russia but I am disappointed so far


You can't try this with USA. They will nuke you to smithereens. Japan is an example of what USA is capable of

Then why has the US not boots on Ukrainian soil to fight against the Russian?

I agree with the land mass factor


But I think dead hand is myth


The only thing I observed is that Russia prepared for dooms day by making most of her nuclear launchers mobile. In that case, they can't be destroyed in a location.


But all in all US has upper hand

And they fled from Afghanistan leaving their heavy weapons behind? If a force using just ak47 could do that to the US then they stand no chance against a formidable adversary like Russia.

Russia isn't number one in tech. Technology requires money and the best brains which again the US has more than Russia.

The American defence budget is almost $1trillion. If you combined the defense budget of Russia and China it would be about half of the US budget.

Lol, you people think war is video game. You don't understand Russians and their mentality. These same Russians gave up their capital city, Moscow to Napoleon in order to deal him a decisive blow.

Honestly, nobody needs this war. The US is being too arrogant and provocative. All the cool heads are out of power presently. For example, what was the point of removing the missile embargo on Ukraine after losing an election? Is that not just pure evil? You expect Russia not to respond?

My own is that anyone hoping to defeat Russia militarily without preparing for the death of millions of their own citizens is a joker. This war was unnecessary. But many people still don't understand the consequences. Thanks to Western media. No wahala sha. Everybody eye go clear!
