Why is the continuation of this war any better than the continuation of any war?
How is this different from someone saying "let's just give Hitler Poland"
Are you saying the Ukrainians should stop fighting? Is that what you would do if someone invaded your home?
This rhetoric reminds of the German military's questioning when pacifists refused mandatory military service. "You say you're against violence but what if someone threatened your family and you had a gun?" Great intellectual company you're keeping here.
However it’s not rhetoric. It’s cold hard history. Allowing a fascist dictator to invade a sovereign country led to WW2.
