We have invested trillions of dollars in our military over the last 30 years, we have built institutions (norad, Nato, and more) to prevent a successful nuclear attack. But I don't believe it would come to that in the least. Putin has used nuclear blackmail to a tee, but he also is facing more opposition within the military as well, there is no way the Russian military would launch a full nuclear strike if their territory isn't threatened.

We have more than the ability to stop the holocaust without stepping foot on Russian soil, and do it in a quick way. See Kuwait as a clear example of what a world's swift response should have looked like.

If you swing and miss it would be a nuclear war.

To me, not supporting them with the air power agreement of moving planes to them from Poland is a major mistake.

Russia went for the throat and failed. They correctly fell back and will concentrate forces with established supply lines which are protected on the eastern front. They will encircle the very strong defense lines of the Ukraine eastern front. Once that’s done it’s over. Done.
