Read the article. It’s a SCENERIO, not a real attack plan.
War between NATO & Russia is imminent, according to secret German Armed Forces document — Bild
A major armed conflict between NATO and Russia is imminent if a secret document from the German Armed Forces is to be believed, with Russia invading NATO’s Baltic states as early as July.news.yahoo.com
Germany supposedly has discovered Russia's plan to attack NATO in 2025 and is preparing for war.
I wouldn't be surprised if somewhere in the Pentagon, there were preparations for a war with Luxembourg. With his army mauled by Ukraine, most of his modern armor gone, and evidence that Bradley troop transporters are capable of knocking out his newest tanks -

It works the other way. Russia is losing trained soldiers at a rate they are unable to replace them. So they are drafting cannon fodder out of prisons, just to hold the line. At the same time, Ukraine has worn down their supplies of weapons and ammunition to the point that they have to accept aid from N. Korea. And due to Putin's aggression, Finland and Sweden are joining NATO. If Putin had designed a plan to damage Russia and build up NATO, he couldn't have done a better job.
So long as it keeps going as it has, they have no need to do so. Even if their goal was to destroy Russia, the present situation works great for them.
If they can't even beat Ukraine, how would they possibly beat Sweden or Germany, much less the combined forces of NATO?
I saw a video by Peter Zahan and he mentions a war of attrition which Russia prefers. He also mentions that Russia has always fought wars where they try to overwhelm you with numbers and don't care about loss of life, which I think is absolutely moronic. Germany just voted against sending Taurus missiles to Ukraine so apparently, not everyone is on board with this war.
I hope we don't decide to invade or it will be a nuclear holocaust time. I agree Putin may be delusional for the old USSR but he definitely isn't stupid.
Any country that has decided to attack Russia on their own soil has lost and paid a heavy price. Napoleon and Hitler found that out. If Russia attacks NATO - I don’t believe they will - we’ll get sucked into war with them and we’d be best just to kick them out of the countries they’re occupying and then settle for “peace”.
At this point, Russia is far more stretched. There is no way it could fight an effective war against NATO with the growing losses inflicted on them by the Ukrainians. At present, the best Russia can say is that they are managing to keep the Ukrainian advances to a minimum and that by emptying their prisons they can keep feeding troops into the meat grinder that the war has become for Russia.
Russia is great at defensive wars. As Ukraine makes clear (and Finland made clear much earlier) offensive wars have largely been disasters for them.
Which is why it's stupid to think Russia would willingly attack NATO. Strategically it makes no sense.
Germany did NOT invade Russia in WWI as they did in WWII and Napoleon did. The Germans severely weakened them in the Battle of Tannenberg in Prussia, but Russian imperial troops still remained in east Prussia. Russia backed out of the war when the Romanov dynasty collapsed in 1917 and civil war ensued. Germany did not "beat" them.
