We have invested trillions of dollars in our military over the last 30 years, we have built institutions (norad, Nato, and more) to prevent a successful nuclear attack. But I don't believe it would come to that in the least. Putin has used nuclear blackmail to a tee, but he also is facing more opposition within the military as well, there is no way the Russian military would launch a full nuclear strike if their territory isn't threatened.
We have more than the ability to stop the holocaust without stepping foot on Russian soil, and do it in a quick way. See Kuwait as a clear example of what a world's swift response should have looked like.

Not saying I disagree with you about more help[ but you seem to want to sacrifice millions over this. A mad man has his fingers on the button to end the world, yes caution is advised.
