That's great in a moral universe. But, in a balance of power world that calculus doesn't work. I know, it's immoral. But I am just pointing out that in the minds of the Russians there is an eye to be had for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. It's immoral, but there you have it.
At some point, when pushed to far, the nukes will start flying. By the way, they have a lot of nukes that will ruin our day but won't ruin our country. We don't really because we didn't build our stockpile that way. It's a subject of a huge national debate in case you missed it which you probably did.

I didn’t miss anything, Skippy. So I’ll thank you to point your snark nozzle in another direction.
I’ve no love for either side in the cluster flop. They’re both hyper corrupt oligarchies that have been fighting for the last 400 years. And they’ll be fighting for the next 400 almost no matter what happens.
I merely pointed out that we don’t “owe” the Russians jack diddly squat. They spent 60 years gleefully killing westerners and then claiming they had nothing to do with it, even when caught, excuse the pun, Red handed. So if they catch a bit of payback, I’m fine with it.
If and when Russians, and I mean the Russian people, decide they want to join the civilized world I’ll be the first one to extend a helping hand. But that day, if it ever comes, is far in the future.

No way. Why hasn't Putin ended the war already by dropping a one 10 mega ton nuke on Kiev? I'll answer - because nuclear weapons are bluff weapons that can never/will never be used in a FIRST strike.
“By the way, they have a lot of nukes that will ruin our day but won’t ruin our country.”
Exactly how many nukes ruin a day but not a country?
