re: If the US bombed the pipeline, will Russia retaliate?

Also, I’m by no means a pipe for energy transportation expert, but how exactly is/was it leaking if Russia supposedly already cut the pipelines off?
And, I’m not an expert on thermodynamics, but I do know that if a flammable substance under high pressure is exposed to an ignition source, that whole pipeline and the sending/receiving locations would be destroyed, no?

Again, using a nuke in response to an alleged pipeline sabotage is an absurd proposition.
If Putin is un-controllable and off the rails like many CNN viewers may say, why would one intentionally provoke a madman with nukes in the first place?
If the US bombed the pipeline, will Russia retaliate?

I hope they don’t, but the US foreign policy has been absolutely out of control under Biden.

You must not be too great at reading comprehension. I said that it was a side effect of WWII, not because of war directly at the time of the split.

Also, the only mental gymnastics going on is you conflating on what’s going on in the US to the situation anyone of those countries were going through. They had it a hell of lot more rough to usher a split than what’s going on here.

Explaining the events that set up how the soviets gained control of Czechoslovakia to only lose control by a peaceful revolution is mental gymnastics to you? Why do you think it was called the Velvet Revolution?

No, that wouldn’t be completely correct. You can’t pick and choose slices of history to support your claim. You have to look at the whole picture and what created that political environment to motivate a split.
The only reason there was a peaceful split is because the USSR was failing anyway.

Lol. You have not the slightest clue of what this thread was about. It’s about avoiding a militarized internal dispute among the states. If you think that’s a good route then I’m sure you wouldn’t last very long.

I’m not sure where you are coming up with the Czech Republic being a side effect of WW2
Czechoslovakia effectively was a lost cause after the Munich Pact which led to everything. The Soviet control, Velvet Revolution, Czech Republic. So yes, a side effect of WWII.

How do you solve our current situation
Hate to break it to you but the reason we’ve gotten here is exactly how politics goes. It’s a give and take. Right now the republicans are giving a lot, but as soon as they gain legislative ground, they will proceed to take.
I’m surprised a 2 party system has lasted this long. But to answer your question, the only logical answer would be something external, like a threat to the country. There’s no way for Ds and Rs to find common grounding since we are at such a irreparable impasse. An external threat or something happening to show where we are better together as a country is what’s needed.
It’s unfortunate that we’ve let the country get to this position.

Don’t forget about the power grab that would ensue. There would be several coalitions formed and a race to obtain commodities. Then all of the sudden you will be living in a world with no economic certain, emerging conflicts over territory, and the eradication of anyone deemed to not think like you do.
Damn it’s almost like history repeating itself.

Why should we not? I hate to answer a question with a question, but going all-out and disassembling everything that the US is, has way more downfall that trying to correct it.
Idk, but a lot of posters on here are wanting something to happen that even they themselves absolutely would not contribute to in any way or form. If a civil war breaks out, >90% of this country would immediately have no idea what to do.
ETA: I’d like to keep my thinking on what’s going on in the country into more tangible means of improving the situation and not total war.

Yes, I do. You are clearly trying to devolve where this thread is going by attempting to point out the only personal things you can -my username, posts, etc. Pretty text book version of what it is.
