www.businessinsider.com Putin doesn't really want a war with NATO because 'Russia will lose and lose quickly,' UK military chief says

Russia would be seriously outclassed by NATO's land, sea, and air forces in a conflict and would lose fast, the UK's Admiral Sir Tony Radakin said.

No one would win a war between NATO and Russia. No one.
- Disagree. I seriously doubt that anyone would turn the key. I don't think Russia could inflict enough losses to hurt NATO logistical operations and I think NATO would prioritize careful advancements to minimize casualties and give the Russian military a frog in the pot treatment. When they realize that its all over, it will be too late and I think we would see a russian revolution before then.
  
  Doesn’t matter the tactics used, its corrupt politians measuring their dicks by using regular people as pawns on a chessboard.
- I would win. In times of war, I become a gentleman thief and underworld figure who is useful to both sides.
  
  Is this a Third Man reference?
  
  No, I’m just a person deeply against war but if y’all gonna have one, 🎼 I’ll drink whiskey and Bacardi. I’ll sell dope to anybody 🎶
  
  Well you should check out The Third Man. Orson Welles is fantastic in it
- NATO has half a million troops. The largest navy and air force in the world. I like their chances
  
  Both sides have enough nukes to kill the entire human race several times over.
  
  More like hundreds or maybe thousands of times over
  
  First, war is always a tragedy. Always. It is to be avoided until the reasonably plausible alternative is worse for human suffering. People who ignore this are asses (not saying you are one of them).
  Second, as long as it stays conventional and China stays on the sidelines, then yes of course NATO destroys the Russian military, or at least keeps it hemmed into existing Russian territory. That's been true for 30 years.
  Third, those are VERY big 'ifs'.
  
  Russia is coming up on its half a million cassualties milestone. Would be the perfect time for the NATO half million to step in.
  
  What is this numerology strategy lmao

  Of course applies to both sides.

- The shareholders would absolutely win.
  
  Yes, for a brief moment
- if we are being honest, current russia couldnt stop china or US from taking over the far east if there were no nuclear weapons
