The really fun part here is that the US is rapidly burning through their existing stockpiles of ammunition, and they lack the industrial capacity to replenish it at the rate it's being used now. It seems that the US leadership is not aware of the problem.

I fear that this will result in a lower threshold for the US to use ABC weapons.

Atomic, Biological, Chemical.

Though I'm more familiar with that as NBC (N being nuclear), so it's possible that I'm misinterpreting what REEEEvolution meant.

Usually it should be NBC which stands for nuclear, biological, chemical.

I'm guessing here they meant atomic, biological, chemical.

There's also "MSNBC" - Mass-Slaughter Nuclear Biological Chemical and "CNN" - "CIA-Nurtured Nazis"

The US has huge arsenals of all of these weapons, a shortage of conventional ammunition would be the perfect excuse to use them to defend the "rules based international order".

Dispite the later 2 being illegal for a country to even posess and the first legal for a contry to posess but illegal to use... so one has to wonder, what rules are there in this "rules based order"?

The US makes the rules and orders everyone else around.

Fingers crossed though, if and when they do launch- the rest of the world must return in kind and 1000x over. The rest of humanity is not defenseless, and if they wish to use such WMDs the US best prepare for MAD and to be eradicated off the face of the planet, this is the deterrence game the US has forced the rest of the world to play and if they want to push their luck they will die by it.
