Sunday’s successful blockade run could signal to international shippers that it’s reasonably safe to resume operations from Ukrainian ports.
Ww2 started because everyone bent over for the Germans and Japanese, which encouraged them.
In this case, si vis pacem, para bellum.
Either putin is sane and pulls back, or he’s insane and war was inevitable.

This is extremely simplified and comes off as silly. German appeasement was partially because France and Britain wanted Germany to attack the USSR, partially because they needed time to rearm. The US empire had a policy of provocation and containment of the Japanese empire.
In the era of nuclear powers wars are done with non nuclear proxies to avoid a nuclear exchange.
WW2 was pre-nuclear weapons. It turns out that changing material conditions makes old responses inappropriate.

We stopped selling them oil and steel, that’s it. After they butchered and butchered China including the rape of Nanking.

Great, then we’ll give Ukraine F-35s, F-22s, B-1Bs, swarms of Predators and Reapers and be on our way then.
See how easy it is to proxy war Zelensky right into Moscow with a smile.
There are no “Rules” to war, people do what they do and you have to be ready for it. Putin made a catastrophic error and we have to prepare for all eventualities, both good and bad, which means para bellum.

Sure, why not? And while we are at it why not some white elephants?
Also predators and reapers are meant for asymmetric operations where your opponent doesn’t have AA or an airforce.
If you want to give Ukraine an advantage and continue the bloody war just make more artillery shells.
We’re not over there, and the only help we’re giving is because we’re asked.
People hate russia, they want our help killing russians. Help we are happy to provide.
