Perhaps you could answer that point.
World War I, at least initially, got out of hand due to a failed assassination attempt succeeding in the end due to a freak coincidence. Maybe such was inevitable due to other reasons.
Ukraine's freedom & independence is not worth WWIII, nor the risk of such. As far as I am concerned, they are on their own. The West needs to end its proxy war with Russia, sooner than later.
Again with a non-answer. I will ask you once more: do you not see how your own appeal to fear firmly echoes the might-makes-right that you would have others believe you do not like?
Please answer that question. Why is your argument here not an appeal to "Russia's going to win because they're too strong, we may as well quit supporting Ukraine now"?
