I think one thing we're overlooking is the attitudes of the potential troops in each nation. I have a feeling that Americans would be more reluctant to join an all-out war than the Russian, Iranian, or Chinese people. Just a thought.

I don't think a war like this would be fought on the ground. It would most likely be strategic air strikes. American Air Force >>>>> anyone else's. American Navy >>>>> anyone else's.
