The fact of the matter is, War is wrong. Killing is wrong

My entire heart is with the people of SE Ukraine and it is difficult for me to watch this video without getting upset. My dilemma is this: - Some experts believe that the US is trying to provoke Russia (and perhaps China) to give them a pretext to start a full blown WW3. This, they say, is the only way for the USA to avoid economic collapse - you go to war and, after you win, (if you win), you re-write the books, cancel the loans, and redraw the borders to get new resources and new markets. Should Putin give them that pretext? What if it is uncertain who would win? Should he risk everything? And then, again, what if the Americans are bluffing? Counting on Russian leadership to buy into it to paralize Russia, to scare it from responding. The guy at the end of the video is right - if Russia lets go of Ukraine, sonner or later NATO will be on its border and Russia will be next. This is where it all has been heading from the beginning. Don't forget that the pathological Russophobe Brzezinski aided Obama's election campaign and is, most likely, still influencing Obama's foreign policy.
