For once, Belarus is, somewhat reluctant, Russian ally. So all Belarus references here are by definition wrong!

Yes, I am incorrect there. Substitute any nearby Eastern Europe country that is more aligned with NATO.

Sure, fine, stand up to the Russians. Just be aware that things just 'happen' that draws nations more and more into war. Just look at how World War One broke out.

Be aware how we could slip into a nuclear exchange.

Unlikely.

Putin could send a single tactical nuke at Rumania, and NATO would run away.

WWI took just few days to get going. We are well pass that!

WWII took few years to start. There were many points (like the Nazi occupation of Rhineland) when it could be easily prevented.
But it was not prevented, just because people like you, afraid of their own shadow.

The problem now is that nobody is scared of Biden. If Putin was scared of him, all of it could be prevented. Biden originally threaten Putin with minor sanctions and even allowed for minor invasion. Then started small deliveries, and it is escalating from there.
