Talk:Scenario: World War III (Obama vs. Putin)/@comment-26577560-20150721014136

Yes true. USA president and leader cannot afford to bear the damage caused by nuclear war. But maybe Russia's president Putin can afford the nuclear war. Putin is near like dictator in Russia. He already control Russia politics since year 2000. Putin is Russia's president from year 2000 to 2008 then in 2009 to 2012 is Russia's prime minister and again voted as President in 2012. Majority of Russians still like Putin as many Russians feel he is true nationalistic leader who can restore the Russian empire. Given a bit more time, Putin can be the next Hilter. Russians although have democracy but what most Russians want now is food, stable job and a strong leader to help them. Today's Russia is almost like Germany after World War 1 where many people still not fully ready for liberal democracy. Russia also has a very large armed forces and is few times much more stronger if compare to Germany during World War 2. Russia also have very large supply of nuclear weapons that can easily destroy the whole world. Moreover, Russia has very large space. No one dare to invade Russia. Napoleon and Hilter fails miserably in their invasion of Russia which leads to their downfall. China once an enemy of Russia also have to be friend of Russia. USA cannot defeat Russia. Russia also maybe cannot defeat USA. Even USA and China combined may not able to defeat Russia. Moreover now China is friendly to Russia. Putin now is only age 62 and still strong and healthy as Russia's top leader for maybe another 10 to 15 years or maybe another 20 years. USA will have a new president after Obama but I guess Russia will still have Putin as their president. So if possible hope USA do not provoke Russia or China. The more USA try to provoke Russia the possibilty of World War 3 with some nuclear war is going to become real. We still want to live in this earth. Please do not enlarge the regional wars like that in East Ukraine into a World war. Then many innocent civilians will suffers!!!!
