Sure, but the American institutional system and the American public are very different from the Nazi ones. No one concentrate anywhere near the sort of power that Hitler had, and the prevalent moral views are also very different. Not only would leftists oppose an attack and invassion of Russia - let alone targeting civilians -, but there would be serious opposition from the right as well, and of course from the military, whose members may not speak out but they speak to senators, etc. It's not realistic to think the US would do that.
I don't think that's probable.
First, you would need to have a lot of people in on the conspiracy. But the people who usually go for that kind of invassion realize the tremendous cost in this case, and would not likely go for it. Also, as I said in another post, there is a political cost to losing American soldiers. The losses in Iraq would pale in comparison. There is no way the President would get support for a campaign like that.
Second, after the Iraq fiasco, people are a lot more reluctant to buy something that would kill thousands of Americans without solid evidence, which there would not be.
Third, false flag does not sell the targeting of civilians.
Fourth, it's not the same to sell a short war as a very long war of attrition.

US has 2x population of Russia.
But the vast majority of them won't fight (not even the majority of those who would support a war, who are a small minority).

Russia is not Iraq. US generals might think that it would be different.
Yes, US generals would reckon it would be vastly worse for the occupation forces, because the evidence that it would be so is pretty clear.

Actually, Russia has no chemical weapons, they finished their disposal last summer I think.
Biological was disposed long time ago, it does not last long anyway.
Assuming that the Russian claims are true, much of their expertise remains (as well as the materials to make some more). In case of invassion, some of that expertise and materials would likely be given to enemies of the US.

True, If Russia had no nukes then such invasion would have no purpose. But you never really know thought process in heads of these people. You see no purpose they see an opportunity.
An opportunity for what?
