If Russia attacked USA, what will happen?

Question

If a Russia leader, the largest country in the world with great numbers of people, decides to attack USA...
And use their weapons and strong people against us USA...
Will we win? Or will they take over USA and get rid of Pres. Bush
and our government collaspe? Will you fight for your country or
just let the Russians take over?

Oh yeah China... they can blast us out of the sky. Plus most stuff we have are "Made in China", their economy is better than ours. And oh... we can't
beat these Asians, we had hard time with Japanese war, Korea war, Vietnam war...
I don't think we can withstand against Chineses, no way.

Answer 1

There would be nuclear retaliation, no one would win. Yes, I'd fight any bastard who attacked us.

Answer 2

Russian is rather poor,nearly third world outside of Moscow. Russia may be largest by area, but is has less than half the population of the US.

Russia isn't included in this list. Here is some information on their military:

Russia is in no position to attack the US. It does supply much natural gas to Europe and it's former "client" states. It could use that threat to pressure the US government.

I'm armed and ready for anything, 51 and female but I'm ready when needed!

No country would attack the US on its own.
Using North Korea or Iran would be another matter. Then Russia and China might have other plans. Or if Al Quida succeeded in an attack which actually caused choas through much of our nation, Russia wouldn't allow us to fall to such enemies without taking a shot.

Answer 3

This would be a catastrophic nuclear event, being that the US and Russia has the largest nuclear weapons cache in each country. I once read that out of 300,000 nuclear warheads in the world today, less then 4,000 of them belongs to other countries, Russia and the US are both considered to be close to being evenly armed. Not to not give attention to the chemical poisons stored by both countries, that was used in past wars, and had devastating affects for all whom were involved with the testing and use of these poisons.

The answer is nobody would win, and the world will be doomed.

Answer 4

IF THEIR NUKES WORK AND THEY HAVE NOT SOLD OFF ALL THEIR SUPPLIES THE WORLD WOULD BE OVER AS WE KNOW. THE USA WOULD NOT STAND STILL AND ALLOW ANOTHER COUNTRY TO ATTACK US. FIRST OF ALL I WOULD FIGHT TO THE END. THEY DON'T NEED TO TAKE OVER ANYTHING THEY HAVE A HARD ENOUGH PROBLEM HANDLING THEIR OWN AFFAIRS. IF WE EVER GET ATTACKED YOU WILL SEE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE UNITE AND FIGHT LIKE NEVER BEFORE. OUR INDUSTRIAL AND MILITARY MIGHT WOULD FLEX A MUSCLE THAT THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD FEEL. PLUS WE HAVE THE BEST NUKES IN THE WORLD. NO MILITARY WOULD EVER LAND ON OUR SHORE WITHOUT TASTING A TACTICAL NUKE.

Answer 5

to all intents and purposes, I suggest you simply bend over and kiss your axx goodbye. nobody wins in a nuclear war and no one would be in a hurry to try and repopulate the country hit. russia would be just as devastated, presumably, by american and allied nuclear warheads.
one of the scariest statements by a head of state that I have heard [u.s. this time] was when, I believe, r nixen stated in an interview that 10% survival in a nuclear war would be considered a success. doesn't sound much like it to me.
ask the japanese in hiroshima and nag. if they consider themselves winners for surviving. ask them about their kin that, like the everready bunny keeps ticking, the japanese people there just keep on dying.
the war would only be the beginnings of the death to come. radiation poisoning, food and water poisoning, seeds being planted, poison.
good luck surviving

Answer 6

The U.N. would make them very very sorry. They had their army limited once already before when they were blamed for the cause of the first World War. I'm sure it'd be worse off for them the 2nd time if ever they were to be found upsetting worldwide international wellbeing.

Answer 7

there would be a nuke war basically and I think if the US was occupied we would turn into another Iraq people fighting to get the occupying force out of the country

Answer 8

The only way this could be done is with the use of nuclear weapons..in that case America will use its nuclear arsenal and they'll be no winners !

Answer 9

The USSR is not the power it once was. They have succomed to capitolism and have been divided by politics! No,Russia is not a problem! China? Well,now that`s another story!

Answer 10

They have been developing 'scalar weapons' that take advantage of electromagnetic energy that Nicola Tesla was famous but discourage for.

Answer 11

Vokda, Beer sales would go down, and AAA, and MAAD would be bankrupt if Russia attacked USA
