If it's Russia, this is an attack on NATO.

  Only a fool would look forward to that interpretation, hopefully someone with a thread of common sense still has some kind of authority. But I'm sure they'll get their war one way or the other, seeing how everyone is so looking forward to it. Two words, Deer Hunter; and this one will likely be worse.

    What's important about an interpretation is that it is close to the truth, not that it is convenient or pleasant to look forward to. The opposite is just burying your head in the sand.

      Right, the Gulf of Tonkin truth. It gets old.

  Hardly the first. Using chemical (Novichok) and radiological (Polonium) weapons to conduct assassinations (and causing civilian casualties) was an attack on NATO. Blowing up Czech and Bulgarian ammunition depots (causing deaths) was an attack on NATO. Attempting to assassinate German and Bulgarian arms manufacturer CEOs was an attack on NATO. Not all "attacks" are immediately risable to the level of war, but lets be real here.

Don't forget the classic assassinations like the Tiergartenmord in Berlin [1].
