And I have yet to see you refute it.

Although if you would like to discuss what would happen in a conventional war between the US and Russia, let's have at it.

*Hint* The US would wipe the floor with Russia.

going by what you said:

and in this war every nation or cultural group fought every other nation (or culture, i.e. muslim or something like that) in a giant free-for-all, who do you think would rise victoriously in the end?

we're not looking at nations but cultural groups. I'd have to say the general West.

Silly Euros, Remember the second amendment? 40% of American households own guns so we've got something like a defensive militia of 100 million.

Furthermore, the distance of recent American wars is a strength, not a weakness; no other nation has so much experience in projecting their power over such distances, even to the other side of the world. Do you really think Russia, say, could even take over Brazil? Their force just isn't designed for it.

So, you admit that aside Russian forces (which is true of course. Our forces created only for self-deffence We do not want to conquer anyone, we already have everything we need.) USA could project it's power everywhere, which means that your forces created for conquest?


Paiktis, we were right!!! The American menace should be stoped!!! Let's gather as much people under our banners as we can.
People of the world!!!
Only together we could stop this menace. Just think about it, you can't run and you can't hide from them they find you everywhere. Brasilians, join us, they admited you are next target for them.

The main problem with those civilian americans are that even with guns, they'd be too eager to go fighting and fighting over who gets the first kill, they'd start shooting each other. Yep.

Yep... Plus our ultimate plan (level S-11 secret, can't tell exact facts, hope you understand) is quite clever. It's called 'mushrooms in the rain', and it means when needed, we can turn a person to finn, no matter what race, religion or nationality before.

Decode the yester fifth code: For (4) we have nit pick begun to fife, if we has not read the forth. Columbine veals disastrous dread of indigestion, followed by weakened malaria (useful for determining the retinal structure of an unblemished pig yolk, I demand). Return the giddly voluption, keeping the drak filled to the top level....steady...steady....don't spill it....(gyroscopes are good here),,,and then yelp. That is the way the cookie disgruntles. In conclusion, France wins, and Honduras defeats Yellowstone in the consolation bout.

Fine, don't buy oil from Persian then.

Welll, let's figure this out. The first and most dramatic thing that's going to happen in this WWW3 free-for-all is going to be the exchange of nuclear weapons. There are 8 nations currently in posssesion of nuclear weapons: US, Russia, China, UK, France, Israel, India and Pakistan. I believe that Russia is still in possesion of the nukes in the Ukraine and etc.

China will feel obligated to devote most of it's missles to Russia, with some being sent to India and Pakistan. A few might even be sent to the Koreas, Vietnam and Japan. Few if any of China's current missles can reach the US, though they might spare some for the bases in Guam, the Phillipines, Singapore and Hawaii. India will target China and Pakistan. Pakistan will target India and China. Israel will target its neighbors. France has some IRBMs, nuclear subs and bombs. Most of its weapons can only reach Europe and Russia, though it coul send its sub towards the US. Britain has bombs and subs. It can target Europe and Russia, and its subs might reach the US. Russia will certainly have to split its weaponry between China, the US and Europe. The US will hit Russia, China, Europe, and one or two at Mexico and Canada. The US has a real advantage in that it has no real competiton in its hemisphere. If the SOSUS line still works it might even be able to intercept some of the boomer subs sent towards it.
After the first day Russia and China will be very badly hit by nuclear crossfire. If this theoretical war is truly a free-for-all then Europe will be tearing itself apart. Africa will not really figure into the game. South Asia will also tear itself apart. Russian and Chinese forces will maul each other.
In the western hemisphere the situation will be greatly different. One or two nuclear strikes will quickly subdue America's neighbors. Texans with guns in pickup trucks will quickly overwhelm everything south of the Rio Grande. If the US Navy remains intact then the US will be in position to intervene to its own advantage in the struggles in Europe and South Asia. As the struggle between Russia and China comes to an exhausted end we'll step in and finish things off.
