| #8 I really suspect there's a event in the future whose result will be a sudden appearance of a lot of people having nukes who previously quietly assembled or purchased the necessary ingredients. |

| #7 (i) Look up the Baltic economies. Not sure they've this kind of money (by the way these are several countries---who don't particularly like each other). (ii) On the quiet? You can't get a nuke on the quiet. You can fool people, who want to be fooled. |

| #6 g(r)om, that's why you do it quietly, by the sly. You know sort of like 'Money for Kimmy', their little bad boy or 'Money for Karachi' like the Saudis. |

| #5 So like where did all the Baltic Waffen-SS units go when you really need them. Poetic irony: the Balts heartily agreed in murdering their Jewish fellow citizens as the Germans looked on - and now one wants them to take lessons from Israel? lol |

| #1 "The Balts can't possibly keep a Russian invasion at bay without NATO's aid. They're right, too, that Western analysts spend too much time imagining Russia taking a Ukraine-style approach to destabilizing the Balts, when a quick, outright invasion is more likely." No, I think a long destabilization campaign is much more likely than an invasion. |
