They're thinking "Russia has far more men than we do so we need to even the odds".

This comic is an absurdly naive take.

Surely the ~~leopards would never eat my face!~~ AI terminator killbots will never be used against me!

If you don't expect the enemy to forego killbots too, then the rational move is to disable their ability to produce killbots.

You can't turn nuked land into a beautiful tourist destination like Crimea.

More like "our destruction is inevitable, we can have assured destruction or take out chances with the killer AI that at least we control (for now)".
