Germany vulnerable to Russia, really? Russia can barely take on Ukraine but now it's a threat to Germany? Putting NATO missiles in Germany has more to do with US power projection than defense for Germany.
Last I checked, Russia still had nuclear weapons. Did that change?
I'm pretty sure they also know they would be flattened if they decide to nuke a European country
Russia claims to have 6000 nukes. Let's pretend they have 50 working ones. If they detonate 1 of them, will the EU really flatten them while they're waving 49 more?
Well as long as you're pretty sure, I don't think there's anything for anyone to worry about.
You do have the relevant experience and education when it comes to foreign relations and military strategy, right? Otherwise we might be putting our trust in the wrong person.
Look its pretty simple, you don't want your country to be a big threat/strategic target for Putin.
You're saying that the U.S. wants Germany to be attacked by Russia? Really?
No I think the US doesn't care whether Germany gets attacked or not as long as they profit from the war and reach their strategic goal's. Germany is a great spot to put some long range attack missiles to threaten Russia.
I don't think you understand how economics works. The U.S. profits a lot more from peaceful trade with Germany than it does war with Russia.

Why you think the U.S. would want to lose such a huge amount of money over a war, I don't know. But the war would in no way make up for it. You don't make up for a loss that large with a nuclear war. What a bizarre idea.
