Russians are running scared - sanctions do work. Limited air strike in case of further aggression will drive them to panic. For example, a 2-hour long operation could reduce their Black Sea fleet to a pile of rubble, with no significant losses on our side. This thought is slowly creeping into Russian boneheads.

My opinion is that any Russian invasion of Ukraine must lead to a protracted war using asymmetrical warfare.

Attack their supply lines. Burn anything not guarded. Force them to commit masses of troops to guard everything.

Plant real and fake mines along invasion routes. Use these sites as ambush locations to attack the Russians.

Prepare snipers to shoot and kill the Russians without getting caught.

Fight no pitched battles. Always escape.

Prepare to assist any Russian wanting to escape this rich man's war of Putin's and this poor man's fight. Help them escape to the West until the Putin's war ends. Treat them like Christians as long as they refuse to kill Ukrainians in the Ukraine.

Destroy bridges ahead of their advance.

Destroy and burn fuel points and ammunition with fires.

Make them pay a huge price in men and materiel.

Be aware of their fifth column. Treat them like spies.

Leading to a Nuclear exchange, and the end of life as we know it.

Attacking the Black Sea Fleet would justify an IMMEDIATE Nuclear response, most likely against US Forces in the Red Sea or Indiana Ocean.

It would be the hallmark of stupid.

And they retaliate against western European infrastructure with cruise and intermediate ballistic missiles while cutting off their gas, WWIII. OR attack one of our carrier groups with their diesel electric subs and supersonic cruise missiles, WWIII. What about handing over live nukes to Iran to use against Saudi Arabia and other pro Petro-Dollar oil countries to collapse our suicidally over extended currency, WWIII. We can do this all day but what`s the point.
