We're a colony of the US, so we will be busy redrawing Russia while China redraws us.

And seeing how PR is not a republic, and is actually part of the US, you just said that GB is capable of doing more drawing than the US itself.  You, my friend; even for me a socialist, are a dreamer.
You're putting words into my mouth.

I'd wiki how many Nuclear missiles and subs Britain has but I can't be assed and I'm tired. I'm sure we'll manage though.

Well, I'm not, so here:

United Kingdom:

Nuclear submarines - 12
Nukes - 200

US:

Nuclar submarines - 72
Nukes - 9,200

Russia:

Nuclear submarines - 35
Nukes - 16,800

China:

Nuclear submarines - 10
Nukes - 400


Maybe you can draw a happy face on China, but they would wipe GB with a broom stick.

And what, 200 Nukes wouldn't seriously and totally fuck up China? Get real, not only that but we don't have as many as the US and Russia because we don't need to. Really, Why would Russia now go East and attack Russia, or go West and attack our European allies? I'm happy we don't pay taxes to maintain 10 000 Nukes.

You talk like all those nukes are deliverable, all those submarines work for one, and that they wouldn't get sunk first for two. Either way, any of those countries have enough nukes to royally fuck the entire world, so it doesnt matter. Hell, Id be suprised if Russia could even find 60 or 70% of those nukes given a weeks time table.

The point is, until someone comes up with a way to make nukes obsolete, we are going to have to be content living under the idea that if some idiot takes some idiotic decision because of stupid information about some other idiot the wrong way, we will die. You cant say "Oops" when your talking about nukes.

LOL! Talking about troop numbers and nukes. Considering that after 340 nukes fall on a country, I doubt they are gonna have more then a few hundred people left period. Much less the ability to launch an invasion. There is no winner in a nuclear war. It doesnt even matter if your nuked, your gonna be fucked because of the nuclear winter, fallout, low crop yields, disease, etc.

We agree on that.

Actually, if we count all Russian nukes (even the ones that went missing), Russia would have around 25,000 nukes.

But yeah, until that day, Russia will be able to do whatever they want without getting touched, as will the US, etc.

Nuclear missile numbers aren't the same as infantry numbers. I don't think you're willing to understand how much damage and for how long they do that damage for.

If any country got hit by 10 Nukes it would be fucked up.

They were given the choice to become either:
A.) A state
B.) An independent country or
C.) Remain a territory where they dont have to pay taxes, yet still get government benefits.

As will everyone with nukes, even 1 is enough that people dont want to risk a war with you, at least a conventional one. This aint about arming the whole world with nukes though, then any idiot can push the button, instead of just a few.

It is possible to have a conventional war between two nuclear armed countries, just that as soon as one country can not win conventionally. The possibility for both countries to loose in a nuclear conflict comes on the table.

Do you have any idea what kinda shit the germans make? their weapons and vehicles are excellent, state of the art. best there is imho. A war isn't fought solely by throwing around nukes, the whole world would die out if 1000 nukes exploded. The whole world, there's more to nukes than a pretty explosion.

besides, have the EU throw in a draft and you'll have a military that's so large and advanced you'd piss your pants.

We would never be a state (Congress won't allow it even if 100% of Puerto Ricans voted for it), neither we will be an independent country (US has a troop mine here), so guess what choice Congress let us choose?

A draft? They already have a draft, anyways, troop numbers stopped meaning shit back in the American civil war. MG's and other advanced weapons made it possible to kills 1000's in a day. Now its all about training, equipment, and resolve.

This aint a pissing contest between the US and China, so stop trying to turn it into one of your wet dreams.

No, some is very technologically advanced and well trained, though the majority is ill trained, ill equipped conscripts. That doesnt mean its not formidable, a fight between the US and China, besides being brutal and possibly world ending, also would have no clear winner. But this isn't about China is it? This is about the missile shield in Poland.

Bullshit.  We wouldn't want PR as a state because it's too poor.  If our government gave a shit about the interests of the common man, we would've left PR a long time ago and gave it its independence.  PR no longer has a strategic significance.

True, sorry for derail.

Since this is about the missile shield in Poland, which affects Russia, what about the Russian military?

- True on the PR not being a state because it's too poor (not as poor as Mississippi, but in the same ball park).

PR is a troop mine for the US Army (they get a good number of soldiers here).

The US doesn't drop PR because its easier to spend money on aid for the poor here in exchange of soldiers.

10 missiles (isn't that the number with this) have virtually no effect towards Russia. I believe this is a step in the right direction though, steps need to be taken by all sides to nullify nuclear weapons.

I would think we get enough soldiers from our continental ghettoes and from Latin America in general that we don't need PR as a troop mine.  Besides, we could use it as an exchange for American citizenship if they no longer were a protectorate.  We do the same kind of thing with many Mexicans, for example.  They want the fast route to citizenship, so we should just shorten the process even further for those who are willing to join the military.  This could still include Puerto Ricans without us even having to pay so much in social programs to them.
