It could also be said that we will get pissed at Russia and start shooting at them. Those are possibilities. However, I doubt it will happen. Why? Russia doesn't have that much religious input at the top and might be more easily persuaded to get pissed and not start a major firefight. Would I want to remove nukes from Russia in the state it is in? No. I feel pretty comfortable with them. Iran, well....
The USSR which was more militant in the past and had issues in Afghanistan were a nuke was more suited than ground troops didn't then. What make them want to do so now?
