Don't go around poking hornets nests if you don't want to get stung.
- easytiger 8mo agoYou think there's a game theory scenario in the book where France launches a nuclear weapon at mainland USA over a land dispute between them and Denmark?

Make of that what you will, but if I were you I wouldn't go around poking the hornets nest that has an explicit sign "these hornets will sting" attached to it.

- easytiger 8mo agoSo you don't want to answer the question?
- Jensson 8mo agoNATO dictates that an attack on any NATO nation should be seen as an attack on every nation, so yeah.
