What are you an Army general? I kinda would prefer the government not give any more reason for a nuclear strike by Russia. Which is absolutely where we're trending if America starts dropping pretenses and begins directly arming incursions into Russian borders.
Russia only understands one language: violence.
They need to be shown where their place is, and NATO's combined might is more than capable of doing so. Hell, Ukraine with NATO's leftovers is keeping russia at bay.
If russia wants to go nuclear, so be it. They'll be absolutely eradicated, so they won't strike first.
Name on state or nation in the world that isn't rooted in violence and that doesn't have an army
You could argue Vatican City has some rooted violence and doesn't have an army - they borrow the Swiss guard.
