No one can fight for anything.
I don't know, nuking Poland could shake that up pretty quick. US may be overextended at the moment, but they could be shaken up pretty damn quick. If Russia's looking for a fight they could get it. Iraq would be forgotten pretty fast in relation to a war with Russia. My bet, if something happens with Russia it'll be used as an excuse to pull all of the troops out of the middle east by the left while the right talks about mandatory service to increase the ranks.
I don't think Russia is really that stupid though, it's just showboating. All of this started because the US shot its mouth off when Russia retaliated on behalf of a friend that was invaded. I think Russia was right to do what it did. If England invaded Canada and the US bombed the hell out of England in retaliation, who's in the wrong?
I'm quite possibly missing some facts so feel free to enlighten me.
