Victim blaming??? Why should I do that?
Look, the situation was not like don't go down this alley, it's dangerous, it was like you are surrounded by Russian crooks who want to kill you, only a miracle could save you.
It was clear in December 2021 that Russia WILL attack Ukraine - multiple countries started preparations based on this. Preparations that ended up being crucial for Ukrainian survival but US (or NATO) decisive action could have averted the war as it was also clear that Russia is not willing to fight with US or NATO - this could have been the saving miracle.
The Russian plan was a Blitzkrieg to overtake Ukraine in weeks and then threaten US and NATO with nuclear war when they plan to react.
This plan would have fallen apart when they should have attacked US or NATO forces to begin with.
Like I told, Russia had only one option left at the end of 2021 - attack Ukraine. There was no go home option on the table because they had talked themselves out of it. Now if option to attack Ukraine would have switched to attack US and NATO then most likely they would have reconsidered the go home option more seriously and chosen that instead.
