Yes, the US / NATO must destroy Putin for invading Ukraine. But...I think they must do it with economic sanctions and do everything possible to avoid escalation to WWIII. If Putin escalates, fine - we do what has to be done to end him. But the US must maintain the high ground and do everything possible to avoid entering the war. This is a defining moment in geo-politics. If the West is able to destroy Russia without firing a shot, it is possible that this will be the end of war in our lifetime. How does any country justify the cost of an illegal war if they know their economy will be ruined and that their opponents will be provided enough munitions to devastate their military over the course of an attempted long term occupation? China has to be watching what the West is doing to Russia's economy and realizing that the cost of invading Taiwan would destabilize their country and possibly lead to regime change.
