Wars of aggression are declared by people that have no direct skin in the game. If Putin had to be on the front lines, leading the very first charges into Ukraine, do you think he would have done it?
Drunk people pick fights with bouncers. Very, very few sober people do.
The fight at the OK Corral was an ambush by the Earp brothers and Doc Holliday; it was anything but a fair fight. And I wouldn’t call the Clanton and McLaury bros. “trained combatants”; none of them had any kind of military or law enforcement experience, while all of the ambushers had been in lawmen or in the military.
