that quote made my day, sorry to inform you mate but the USA is not capable of taking out russia and Iran, its not as simple as that. dont
underestimate the russian war machine and on that note dont underestimate Iran either , they are no pushovers, for once I would be on russias side
sick of the western hypocritical culture of do gooders and pompous idiots.
Can I ask what country you are from that we "do gooders and pompous idiots" Americans are protecting from the rest of your neighbors?
You are naive.
Edit:
I realize "America" sometimes screws the pooch, but at least we do something.. the rest of the world seems to just let the chips fall where they
may. It it wasn't for America (and it's sometimes reluctant allies) the world would have probably have had a few more Hitlers by now.
You'd probably be a proverbial "Nazi" if not for the US. (directly or indirectly)

LOl you know nothing about me so stop presuming ...go back to your ranch
This reply is for the comment that the US cannot take out both
Iran and Russia.
This statement is so far from the truth it is not even funny.
The US submarine fleet could destroy the earth by itself.

MIRV warheads, 24 missiles per sub, up to 192 warheads per sub.

There are a few Virginia and Seawolf out there as well,
18 of the Ohio class as well.

It becomes irrelevant who launches 10,000+ nukes or where they
land, the following nuclear winter would drop global temperatures
by as much 30 celsius.
Quote"The temperature changes are largest over land ... Cooling of more than –20°C occurs over large areas of North America and of more than
–30°C over much of Eurasia, including all agricultural regions."
This would pretty much wipe out the grain belt on both continents.
The Alpha and Beta particles get in the soil and have a half life
of 28 years !
Nobody would win !
It would be a short term Ice Age that would kill billions.
Most would die due to radiation sickness over a long period of time
as it entered the food chain.
All the livestock in the Global Fallout would die.
Most fish would die, fresh and saltwater.
If the bombs, long term radiation sickness, don't get you then
starvation, temperature, and disease most likely would.
Your immune system gets a lot weaker in times like that.
The EMP's would shutdown all electrical and electronic power
grids, and most natural gas systems have some kind of eletronic
control systems and fail safes to the off position.
So it would most likely turn the natural gas systems off.
Even the southern hemisphere would be affected to a lesser degree.
Nuclear Winter is hideous.
Never the less the Russians are ready for this:
