Agree

I have done that too, Pehr.

If you are right, Russia’s collapse will be hastened and then, for example, Estonia can deport all the remaining Russians or at least those who have a Russian passport. Latvia can also ensure that the more unreliable parts of the Russian-speaking population are sent back home to their beloved mother Russia. Even the Kaliningrad exclave should be completely emptied of Russians, and then the exclave can be divided between Poland and Lithuania.

You know, during the Cold War, for a long period, the doctrine of massive retaliation was the basis?

Massive retaliation is a military doctrine and nuclear strategy that commits a state to retaliate to an attack in much greater force, especially with the use of nuclear weapons.

The NATO that Sweden is a member of today and with which Sweden had cooperation was based on this doctrine. It is equally well known that both the USA and Israel have long lived and continue to live according to the same doctrine. It is known to the outside world. Hamas knew what they were getting into. They actually tried to exploit it. The martyrs.

Why this doctrine?

Massive retaliation is essentially a preemptive nuclear first strike.[8][9] In the event of imminent attack from the Soviet Union, NATO forces would rapidly respond with strategic and tactical nuclear bombing in an effort to destroy Soviet nuclear forces before they left the ground.[9] This strategy was summarized in MC 48, a strategy paper adopted by NATO in 1954: “Should war occur, the best defense against atomic attack lies in the ability of the Allied nations to reduce the threat at source by immediate and intensive atomic counter-attack.”[10]

The aim of massive retaliation was to deter the Soviet Union from attacking Western Europe, which lacked enough conventional forces to counter the vast Soviet military.[1][2] Deterrence requires that potential aggressors know what actions could invite retaliation, and they must believe that retaliation could cost them more than they stand to gain. They must also believe that if they avoid those actions, retaliation won’t happen anyway.[11] These are the same principles underlying mutual assured destruction. However, massive retaliation implies that even a minor conventional attack on a nuclear state could conceivably result in all-out nuclear retaliation.[2]

Israel’s doctrine of “massive retaliation” is a pillar of its security strategy, emphasizing deterrence through overwhelmingly disproportionate responses to attacks. It aims to convince adversaries that attacking Israel will result in losses far exceeding any potential gains, often threatening to cripple regimes, not just military assets. 

We need a whole bunch along our eastern coast. Hopefully they work well together with the militia or home guard
