Does it really matter?
Honestly, Russia can't even control its own citizens or run itself effectively - why on earth would they go to war against NATO?

For the same reason that Russia is increasing its military budget 30% every year? For the same reason that it has a massive stockpile of nuclear weapons? Thanks to George Jr's new policies, Russia can terminate any treaty immediately when it is convenient to Russia. And where does most of the natural gas in mainland Europe now come from? Oh. Russia could never be a threat? That was George Jr's policy.
