Is Putin Marching Towards World War III

Do we just let Putin have it and get away with a strike at the heart of the West, or do we try to stop him?  And if we try to stop him with words and doctors and nurses and clean water, negotiation, global warming threats -- and try to appeal to his good conscience and not destroy the planet and all -- and if that doesn't work, then what do we do?  Well, we've pledged to defend Ukraine.
If we don't... If we do that militarily, oh, people are worried about that.  If we don't, people are worried about that.  That's something real that's going on and is significant, that is totally unnoticed by vast majority of people.  I mean, there are tanks with Russian flags on them in east Ukraine, and the Drive-Bys are calling it a civil war. 
It's not.  It's an invasion.  The reason they call it a civil war is because we have no business getting involved in civil wars. "Remember Vietnam? How did that go?  How did that work out for us?  If it's a civil war, it's none of our business! We stay away."
They’re on their own, we’re not going to fight anymore.
