Nato. Including gasp, UKRAINE! (And they lost some men doing it, too)
Who helped us out during the various natural disasters ? Singapore was flying helicopters and Israel sent search and rescue teams. During Covid TAiwan sent a lot of aid to the USA also (we know it was pointless, it was the thought that counted)
As bad as 911 was, it was one city in one state. Nuclear war would be a lot worse and we've burned quite a few bridges since then.
Also, consider the international implications if the U.S. is hit. Ukraine is already busy, several countries in the Mid East are likely to see us as weak enough at that point to attack Israel, and the same is true regarding China invading Taiwan.
Some European countries may be willing to help us, depending on affected their own countries are.
Nope.
Japan still exists today and is stronger than before, so about that.
Actually, the nuclear weaponry that exists today is also stronger than before. A lot stronger. So, yeah...
Yes and no.
Dialable also.
Which doesn't change my point.
People here freaking out over nuclear warfare are no better than those who freaked out over covid in early 2020.
Putin threatened Nukes a dozen times before, even before Joe biden was vice president.
Japan had our help. Who do you think is going to help us?
Who helped us out post 9/11?
