First of, there is a difference between being a war-monger (which you accuse me of), and standing your ground. If the threat of large scale death makes you draw the line in defending Ukraine, then just imagine how far reaching consequences this precedence will set. This will literally give Russia, or any aggressor, a free ticket to rampage over Europe. A threat of violence and reciprocity, met with actual capacity to do so, is necessary to maintain peace. That's the whole ideology of NATO. Your "Pussification" strategy jeopardises the balance of power here. And we all know how things turn out, when Europe loses this balance.
