Russia's economy is the size of Italy. They don't have the resources to engage on that level. Most of their equipment is old relics from the 70's and 80's and half of it doesn't even work.

According to a prophet, China will have its submarines on complete east, west and Gulf of Mexico and at the same fire all of their atomic weapons on board which destroys USA.
The damage will cause the Mississippi river to change it's current flow.
He has been preaching this prophetic vision for 30 years.
What prophet? Name please....
Jin, Hong, Shang boats...are threats but harmonic signatures are known. Their DE are never fully 'staffed' minimal crewing complicated by no experience or qualifying training.
They run mostly thumpers and would not survive under a threat to the US.

No.
Russia will not be involved directly/kinetic or otherwise there is is no ability other than providing arms.
The dreams of Russian glory days of the Soviets are tossed, there is zero power projection of force available. Syria alone drained all the forward assets, no money and the only carrier fell apart
Power projection is the key. The US owns this, no other nation can flex in such a way currently.
Now as to the jetliner shot down. Poorly made equipment, sadly trained operators and fear.
No real spikes in oil, Iran understands now they are a big blip in a history that does not care. I watch oil daily, nothing alarming.

If America fires one at Russia then its on, but only if that occurs first. Their system identifies the launch site the speed and trajectory, plus potential target, if its heading for Russian soil then all theirs launch.

That would be a never-ending war ! If White House attacks Iran, not only Russia and China will use this opportunity against US rather Iran itself is dangerous enough. Israel will be hit too then it has to enter the game. Not to mention the other militias who are waiting this opportunity.
The war will never remain between US and Iran, never. The former presidents of US knew this and Trump should be alert too.
Looks like Russia is inserting themselves on the world stage.
