There is no weaker positions when it comes to MAD, so unless the USA has an effective missile defense opposing Russia directly is just as suicidal for the USA than it is for Russia.

As to whether you think that you can wage a war between countries with extensive first and second strike capabilities without them resorting to escalation of conflict when they are losing, well thats something that we really dont know.

And we dont know because in the decades of history we never saw such powers facing each other directly, not in Vietnam, not in Afghanistan, nowhere at all.
Wow so from 0 to 100 in a heartbeat ...nukes come right out asap, you feel if a smart guy like putin cant have some 3rd rate shithole he goes straight to the mutual suicide option and nothing in between!! Hes not some loony tinpot
Lets imagine putin isnt keen to die in a firey apocalypse shall we .....other than nukes literaly everything else is hugely outmatched and he knows it thus hes forced to work with us on a face saving option.

Actualy u.s and soviet planes clashed regularly in korea

In this nothing so drastic occurs more likely it goes like this:
We declare no fly zone over some areas to protect civilians from syrian airforce
Russia is then forced to either stay down or co ordinate with the west when its birds fly through zones
If not an 'unidentified' plane is shot down in colossal air mismatch...the russians bitch and bluster about it..we know its all bluff but for face saving we apologise profusely and offer to work closer to prevent such tragedies again.
The russians then focus on isis or scale down their operation again (they are running outta cash reserves if i recall reading) and declare it their intention all along.
 
So russia warning of upcomming rebel chem attack in aleppo, dropping leaflets and regime sending txt alerts on syrian mobile networks....sounds very much like the regime is about to drop another 'ghouta ' to try and break east aleppo and is building up deniability!!!

Nobody is going to impose a no fly zone to save your moderate jihadists.

We dont know because nobody is willing to see it through, not to win Vietnam and certainly not to save a bunch of tribalist jihadis.

Soviets also went into great deal to hide the fact that they had pilots in the war.

We wont know , for now as i said its one of many options open to the white house to save countless civilians
There are many others
Id doubt any will be used by this administration though ...wel see when aleppo is gassed though if obama can get tough or not
 
Thats odd i heard the presidential frontrunner say so
And agaim its an extreme option...there many others
A presidential candidate also said a wall would be built and 11 million people deported. The other one said she was for TPP then she was against TPP a year later.

It's been 5 years, and still no one coming to save your moderate jihadists.

Yup politicans say shit..doesnt mean they cant follow through esp to save civilians

They dont need saving its the civilians being massacred to try and force a win for a despot.
Genocide to take a city the northern fsa will simply take back later in the year when they have mopped up isis with turkey.

It's been over 5 years, and nobody in the West did anything. Could it be:

A. Nobody gives a shit, or
B. They're waiting for the right time because 5 year+ is too short

Every time the moderate jihadists start losing badly, all the sob stories about civilians come out. I also find it funny how civilians that get killed by rebel rocket and suicide bombings in government areas rarely get mentioned. Either way, jihadists being fed into the meat grinder is a victory for all humanity.

Or maybe its policy ..either bad or good (ie weaken iran and hez)
It sure as hell isnt fear of the laughable mighty russian war machine

Are we pretending its even on a remotely comparable scale ? Or all targeted like the regimes? No?

Its funny ud mention jihadis ,guardian article today points out around 80%of the regime milita forces prepped to go in are foriegn ...aka shia headchopping jihadis!, literaly filmed talking about this being a battle in a holy war
When u talk ur meat grinder hopes im assuming u mean them too right?

You sure talk tough like an armchair general. Too bad the actual generals aren't as stupid. Nobody is going to risk military confrontation with Russia anytime soon. If you're so concerned about democracy, how come you're not flying over to Saudi Arabia, Egypt or Bahrain to wage some freedom jihad? Assad certainly isn't the only tyrant on the block.

We all know by now that by crying about protecting civilians, you're butthurt over your moderate Sunni jihadists losing ground. It's your one gimmick and its laughably predictable at this point. I like how you mention about those Shia militias participating in "holy war". Given the choice, I still prefer Iranian over scumbag Saudis or Turks. As far as I am concerned, Sunnis are higher on the Islamic scumbag scale than Shias, not that I mind them fighting.

Russia fires cruise missiles on Incirlik air base, destroy's planes and kills military personal...then what?
Stop living in a wonderland, grab a plane ticket to Syria and help your moderate beheaders.
 
Or the fucktom ones we sold to gulf states sitting in warhouses guarded by some of the most corrupt/incompetent mofos on earth
Or the cashes repprtedly sitting in turkey awaiting our approval to go across the border,guarded by underpaid troops who now hate us.
Or the ones the lebanese armed forces have aka arms dealers in uniform

what do you mean by arm dealers in uniform??

Yeah lets never confront russia and just hope theywill start behaving reasonably thats worked so well up to now
Lol enormous strawman if it was those countries of course id be equaly behind any revolution


So youre happy with the tactic of starving and bombing civilians just to force rebels to the table? Ok cool
And losing ground? Have u seen the maps of hama and the rest of aleppo recently?
