Pretty sure it's punching down
When you've got nukes, all wars are punching down.
The knowing that even if you fight really well against them, they could just say "fuck it" and flatten you anyway.
Didn't stop the Vietnamese. Or the Afghans.
Yeah eventually the goal of anyone that punches down is "get the biggest punch," and they definitely have it.
