Why conquer all this territory just to blow up the world? Sounds like a waste of time.&lt;p&gt;The scariest situation is one nuke. How do you respond? One nuke back or two? Then things escalate quickly.&lt;p&gt;But I don’t see either country launching their full nuke arsenal unprovoked with their homeland not under any immediate danger. That’s just a death wish. And at that point there’s no one left to brag to about how great your country is.</text><parent_chain><item><author>throwaway5752</author><text>&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;valitsus.ee&amp;#x2F;en&amp;#x2F;news&amp;#x2F;estonian-government-requests-consultations-under-article-4-nato-treaty&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;valitsus.ee&amp;#x2F;en&amp;#x2F;news&amp;#x2F;estonian-government-requests-con...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;People are minimizing this, based on the word &amp;quot;consultation&amp;quot;.
