It would be a mistake, the balance of the nations around the world would not stay with us. See my post in reply to Gary.

Rational or not, the Nuclear Genie invokes mind numbing irrational fear in almost everyone. If one single mistake was made, if one weapon detonated on or near the Russian border I fear the gates of hell would open and destruction would pour forth.

While they say they trust us and all that, they don't. And the loss of their "Super Power" status rankles the Russian Nationalists to no end.

I still maintain our conventional forces are up to the job.
