Well, this is just fucking silly. Don't you think he'd consider WWIII a disaster especially for Ukraine, after it's already been ravaged by almost ten years of Russian invasion?
I'm drawing a blank on the atrocities Zelenskyy has ordered, care to fill us in? Bring evidence.

From the Pentagon Papers, Nudge. Does that answer your question?
Gee, one wonders why he might feel that way.
Oh, right, it's because his country is being ravaged by ... wait for it ... Russians.
Thanks for clearing up your stance about the drone over the Kremlin. You make some very good points, but I don't think I can say I saw pyrotechnics in the video. It looked like it the first time I watched it, but then watching it over and over, it looks less so like pyrotechnics, but like I said before, I'm remaining agnostic at present, but it could be as high as 50-50 for me that this was all just a staged thing by Putin.
And you answered your own question at the bottom of your post. The person who's country is under attack is probably going to be more ok with doing things that may risk WWIII, and justifiably so perhaps, because their country is under attack and they are more desperate. I'm not blaming Zelensky personally as a human being for being panicked, because such is human nature, and he's throwing out some really bad ideas right now about what he might do with bombs in Russia, as internal spy document leaks show, so my problem is more so in the West propping him up, when Zelensky may not be thinking as a completely rational actor right now. Zelensky wouldn't be the threat that he was without us Westerners propping him up, so I'm giving us (the West) the biggest slap on the wrist here with my rhetoric, and Zelensky gets slightly less blame, because he's just using the toys that he's been given.
