The situation in Ukraine is exactly how all wars should be fought, if we should have wars.
Win before you fight. Never fight to win.
Bloodless war. The goal of war is not bloodshed. It is a clean, bloodless, swift victory.
Focused war. Fast, mass deployments to all strategic targets simultaneously, right when the enemy is weakest.
The domino that falls all others. The cascade set in motion now sets up the Russian government as the protector against western meddling, western backed governments, CIA operations (you can bet it all that many agencies are on this) and economic turmoil. The result? Ukrainian soldiers refusing to shoot their own countrymen.
Like Bundy Ranch, the civilians never want shooting. And its not just because they are outarmed. Its because when it all calms down, civilians pay for it all.
Russia is far from good. But they do do a good war!

Was reading about this yesterday, rather engaging: Glorious Revolution, where the dutch William of Orange "invaded" England in 1688 with a rather bloodless campaign, even by today's standard. Critical was the political support of the parliament.
