    To address the question seriously for a change, I think nukes are extremely unlikely because nations generally want to capture their enemies’ people alive for their labor force (and also not annihilate claimable resources if they can help it).

    At least, I hope I’m right.

      No one has ever successfully attacked a major power across a full ocean moat. Logistics win the real war. I don’t see how anyone attacks the USA without a total annihilation strategy, or from within like is happening now.
