Pick whatever non-NATO source.

    The question is purely speculative. Try swapping Putin for any western leader and then answer the actual question if it helps.

    I can speculate easily what will happen if Biden is assassinated because the probability of anything is not zero. The VP will take his place and so on.

      So, your position as i understand it: it is just words.

      My position: words related to real world are not just words, they have meaning, purpose, intention and consequences.

      Edit: if USA president is assassinated VP takes the place, is that all what would happen? ASSASSINATED, not by sickness or accident🤔.

        Yes, assassinated, because things happen and no, I do not intend to assassinate anyone just because I use this word. And because things happen, there are contingency plans written for such scenarios, in every country. Do you think that national security services shy away from this because God forbid they talk about it?

        Here’s what happens when the president is no more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_line_of_succession

        I could speculate further that there’s always a possibility of unplanned action or power imbalance, or infighting etc etc that may further complicate things, but the bottom line is things of all kinds happen and they will continue to happen regardless of whether I talk about them or not.

          1- i did not write you intent yo kill anyone, just you are adding your contribution to a toxic environment of manipulation, if you intended or not i do not know.

          2- i did not object on religious or moral grounds.

          3- you did not ask for a legal answer, that would be too easy. Your question is open ended in order to obtain arguments based on different personal grounds, mine are based on: a) critical thinking. b) been fed up (sorry, do not remember a softer expression) reading such ideas. c) been on the reciving end of that media manipulation, because Putin is not the only political leader who faces this. There are too many in the world, and with them their peoples share the burden of the consequences.

          4- last, i am not going to argue about this forever, do not want to win any argument. If you want to feel you are right and me wrong go ahead and be happy.
