There is one shocking piece of data in the The Institute for Global Affairs poll there.
Specifically less than half of both Americans and Europeans think that direct war between nuclear powers should be avoided. I mean what are the rest smoking when they answered this question ? One of the biggest reason they all have nukes.....is to avoid being forced to capitulate conventional war.
Direct war between such powers therefore, at best means a multiyear meat grinding killing millions of young people likeWW I or the Iran-Iraq war. And at worst it means one loses the conventional war and launches the nukes to avoid being overrun.
Even indirect war is far too risky and in the past 18 months in indirect war we have already seen some crazy levels of risk of escalation to nuclear war.
Direct war must be avoided at all costs.
But we are not going to avoid it as long as both the US govt, especially State Department has no diplomats and is run by zealots of the three letter agencies - and all of Europe is run by puppets who are assets of those three letter agencies.
