I definitely get that. But then part of me thinks that Putin gets that - and our fear of it gives him a license to go well beyond the Ukraine, knowing that the west is too afraid of what he might do if they try to stop him.
That's not the greatest alternative, either. It's as complicated as it gets. This isn't like bluffing in poker, where the worst that happens is that you lose a few bucks.
I have no solution on this one. I just hate to see him getting away w/ this, every single day. He's just murdering people and destroying lives.
Then we ALL need to encourage peace talks and negotiations. They cant be ONE SIDED either or they fail. There must be something in it for all sides or it doesnt work. Theres your answer. THAT.......or we are all fucked. Simple as that. Which one ya want?
Pride...EGO.......Or a World? A deal can be struck if it benefits everyone.
