- dx034 8y agoIf the Middle East is a threat the easiest solution is switching to renewable energies. Many of the wars in the Middle East can only be fought because of money coming from oil. Any increase in renewable energy lessens that. That is, to a certain degree, also true for Russia. Revenues for NAtural Gas and Oil are crucial for the state, they'd have to cut expenses significantly if oil prices were back at $30/bbl for more than just a few years.
- mantas 8y agoWhy do you think so? China is pretty much the only one that may be a threat. North Korea is a blip on the radar at worst. Russia is fading away and fast.
- posix_me_less 8y ago> Russia is fading away and fast. How can you say that? They have more active nuclear warheads than U. S., plenty to overwhelm any current AB system. Do you count on the AB system getting better so as to eliminate MAD?
- mantas 8y agoI wonder how many of their warheads are in as good condition as their airplane carrier...
- CamTin 8y agoChina could be a threat in the next 10 years, but it isn't a Germany-and-Japan-in-1941 level of threat, not even close. Russia and whatever jihadi wannabe idiots in HiLuxes in the middle east don't even rate. There are street gangs in the US that are more worrisome.
