Conscripted troops with less training contribute to early losses
They've been doing a lot of Grads in different places but the Thermobaric weapons are an entire different level of bad.
Horrible weapon system. Horrible way to die
True. Having the electricity off for a long time is not out of the question (cyber or worse) and we are always about 9 meals away from absolute mayhem.

Choose your level of preparation...
I think German Chancellor is taking the lead here for a European led coalition. Might be NATO, but could involve non NATO countries as well. He had Polish PM and head of Lithuania in Berlin today. It would be best IMO if this were not US led response. American participation, in a significant way, but not at the head of the coalition.
