Russia can't even defeat a 'weak' Ukraine - what chance do they think they'd stand against the entire western world.
Not including jet engine powered cruise missiles or their new modern rockets, most of their ICBM's would most likely blow up on launch, causing a bigger problem for Russia than anyone else. I do get some amusement from Moscow Bobs ramblings, despite the fact that everyone else standing at the podium with him are discreetly rolling there eyeballs.
