Works in the playground, but not so much when they can start the worst conflict the planet has ever seen.

What kind of sense does that make?

"Russia is trying to attack and grab its neighbor's land, which is not OK and they must be stopped!"

"We should attack and grab their land instead!"

So it's not ok if they do it, but it's definitely ok if everyone else does it. That is nonsensical.

They should also do it in the winter to increase the likelihood of success
