You can call it whatever you want, but unless you got a plan to invade a nation 9 time-zones long, defeat their military, overthrow their government to liberate a peninsula.
(Without getting most of the western world nuked to hell)
Then you are just spouting off online. This is now a long-game like eastern Europe 1945-1991. This isnt going to be “won” with anyone we have now. The people that will outsmart the Ruskies this time are currently in high school.
*shudder*
Unless someone confronts Putin with some meaningful costs to his aggression, he’s going to end up in charge. We can put anti missile installations in Poland, Turkey, etc. and stop degrading our military, building it up instead. We can have joint military exercises with allies in the area. Putin can gain economically from his conquests as now the sanctions are laughable. Why can’t we supply fuels to Europe?
As things now stand, the human costs to non Russians will be extreme. You can go back to your hero worship of the strongman and wish we had someone like him. Most Americans don’t give a damn about our Constitution as it seem to limit a strong leader (as was intended).
