Yeah you need to calm down, and read a few dictionary definitions. Europe is NOT at war.. Ukraine is, and you can start yammering about technicalities but you know damn well that there is a difference.

Yes, Russia is fucking about (and finding out) but if Russia actually attacks Europe it's over. Likely not only for Russia, but for the world as that would immediately though NATO result in WWIII. Nukes WILL be involved, Russia will become a waste land and, depending on if Russia's nukes still work (there is a non zero chance that a very large amount are no longer functional), Europe and the US too.

Let's hope cooler.kinds prevail, as before. In the meantime though, stop panicking.

@phoenixz
I know what you mean, but... just a few facts to remind.

  1. Russia had killed the President of Poland and many others. This is not yet proved, unfortunately, but I have no doubt of Russia's role.
  2. A coup d'Γ©tat in the capital of Montenegro, Podgorica was allegedly planned and prepared...
  3. Russo-Georgian War...
  4. Transnistria War...
    Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine are the part of Europe, geographically.
    Russia is constantly participating in European wars.
    No panics! I'm a Ukrainian!

1 is beyond speculative.

All your points are from before the Ukraine war when people feared the Russian army. Let's just say that the Ukrainian war really changed that perspective.
