Think the inflation adjusted is not. But don't quote me on that.Funnily enough, USA spent more money on killing Benny the Laden than on the whole WW2
That's all fine and dandy if they didn't do that. But they are doing it now. In fact, Russia (or rather Putin) is banking of EU to back off because of the gas and oil card Russia hold.Russia would quickly go broke if it carries out your threat . Gas would arrive quickly from other countries and nobody in their right mind would do business with Russia ever again. What Putin is doing will probably get him fired. Someone didn’t think this all the way through! yet Russia does not play this geopolitical games over gas deliveries, they never done that, not even in the midst of the Cold War ?
But then, USSR at the height of cold war will not launch a hot war like this anyway to begin with, which more or less make your point they haven't done that during Cold War moot. USSR only ever launched one hot war during its 70 or so years existence, and that's war in Afghanistan. And that is the dying stage of Soviet Union.
