Spin it however you want, The Ukraine didn’t invade Russia or bombard innocent civilians in Russia.

I’ve never contested those points (there’s some facts and those are indeed two of them).
However your absolutist view on ending the war “prematurely” and the disadvantages of doing so depend on the price people are willing to pay.
Chris very eloquently reflects USA’s interests in a long term battle. Bogging Russia down in a Vietnam on it’s own doorstep. At what point do Ukrainians cease fighting primarily for their own interests and start fighting in America’s? America can keep flooding in dollars and weapons until Ukraine is razed to the ground, I doubt the dead or displaced who could never return home would see that as a win.
