Talk:The Clock Strikes Midnight

Butterflies
I think 9/11 would still occur since Osama bin-Laden would probably be in the same areas he was in OTL. Just like in New Union where the USSR reforms and the attacks still happen the same way it did. This brings the USA and the USSR, along with NATO and CSTO closer together.

However, will the Iraq War, the Arab Spring, and the Syrian Civil War still occur in this timeline? Syria would have remained in the Russian sphere of influence as currently right now. And Iraq, would the Russians veto an invasion? And this may also butterfly Trump becoming president in 2016. Gillan1220 (talk) 16:26, May 22, 2017 (UTC)
