Russia is not a rogue state or suicidal. Ridiculous speculation.

"Suppose, young man, that one Marine had with him a tiny capsule containing a seed of ice-nine, a new way for the atoms of water to stack and lock, to freeze. If that Marine threw that seed into the nearest puddle...?" "The puddle would freeze?" I guessed. "And all the muck around the puddle?" "It would freeze?" "And all the puddles in the frozen muck?" "They would freeze?" "And the pools and the streams in the frozen muck?" "They would freeze?" "You bet they would !" He cried. Cat's Cradle, by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr .
