something that blames ukraine militarily for attacking the russians and that will be his move to broaden the campaign. look, there are still different views here of what would happen. general marks, i know you agree with much of what he said, that there are great risks, but you think it is possible, still, that this ends up being almost bloodless like crimea in 2014. tell me why. not entirely bloodless, but yeah, i think this is going to approximate more crimea than the baltics in the 90s as we all remember as a horrible slaughter, but then the u.s. rode in and the stable of veteran forces, et cetera. what we have in the donbas is we already have a large russian presence, so the increase of peacekeepers. let me pause for a second. these aren t peacekeepers, these are peacemakers. piecekeepers don t choose a side.
