Brumar,
You can't deal with a nuanced situation.
Yeah, look at all that "nuance" happening right now ...

Nearly 160 Russian Troops Killed in 220 Missile, Artillery Attacks: Ukraine (msn.com)

Ukrainian soldier patrolling Chernobyl says deaths in Russia's war are 'catastrophic' and worse than anything he's seen in years of fighting (msn.com)

Ukraine civilian deaths ‘thousands higher’ than official toll: UN | Russia-Ukraine war News | Al Jazeera

Ukraine: Cluster munitions pose long-term risk to civilian safety | | UN News

Either fight to win, or don't fight at all. Both options save lives. Both options lead to peace.

The alternative is to drag this out and continue seeing the death toll climb.

If that's what you want because you're too scared of PooTin escalating the conflict (despite your insistence that PooTin is on the verge of croaking), then just say so. Tell the Ukrainians that your thoughts and prayers are with them. Let them keep grinding RuZZia to a standstill.

Because it sure seems like to me that you want this war to last a very long time.
