I know and I hope you're right, for all our sakes. I just think there are too many ways this thing could sprial out of control. Even if they attack towards Crimea, that doesn't mean they have a hope in hell of actually getting there alive. It's one thing to turn every city, town, village, hamlet and farmhouse into a fortress or bunker; but it's something else completely to attempt a huge offensive across open country against the Russians, who, for a change will have all the advantages of an army defending fixed positions. It sounds like a symbolic propaganda attack, but one that appears to have little chance of succeeding in reality. How many Ukrainians will die, needlessly, to save face for NATO doesn't bear thinking about, but then the entire conflict was needless and unecessary for Ukraine.
