> The alternative to sending weapons being Ukraine being brutally beaten rather than given a chance to defend itself.
I really don't understand this point, Ukraine is very unlikely to win against russia. giving them more weapons is just going to make the war long and more brutal.
The sane thing is the diplomatic route and give putin enought to stop the war.
Otherwise sending weapons for ukraine to fight russia, is like supporting your friend with a knife to a gun fight.
Unless it's important enought that the west is willing to fight alongside ukraine, this will just lead to more loss of life and end up russia winning.
