Yes. This situation is dangerous. It's moving quickly and getting out of hand. The comparison to the Cuban Missile Crisis is apt. The US and Russia have already been fighting hot proxy wars for a decade. US arms have already been killing Russian soldiers. A lot of weapons were pumped into Syria. In turn Russia ramped up tactics used. No one won. The Syrian people lost, badly. If this doesn't end quickly, best case is another Syria or Iraq.. Just horrible mass devastation. Worst case is the end of the world. I was glad to see the Americans finally put in a red line on escalation. They didn't agree to a "no fly zone" (what perfect Orwellian doublespeak), or ratchet up rhetoric in response to Putin mentioning nukes.
