Now that we're 5 days into the battle for Ukraine and several people have advocated for more direct intervention in the conflict I felt it was time to see how popular this opinion was. Polling data from earlier in February was 33% for, 34% against. What's the mix here at Anandtech? Please take the time to explain your answer.
My personal opinion is that widening the war with our direct involvement in combat operations would be a dramatic escalation especially with so little of our combat power in a position to intervene quickly. I strongly support the economic sanctions that have been taken and the other steps being taken by governmental and non-governmental organizations to isolate Russia from the world. I also support sending weapons to Ukraine and working with our NATO partners to strengthen the eastern flank of NATO and fast track Finland's admission if they choose to do so.
