What gloves? We have not personally taken a single action against Russia nor for Ukraine other than to help Ukraine out selling them some stuff, and I'm loathe to understand why.
Frankly, since WWII, I'm wondering if this country really even has it in them to ever fight a real war again, to send battalions of men into meat grinders; for one thing, I don't think many of our kids these days have the mind for it to fight for their country, and I think the main impetus for building all these super-weapons is because America wants to sit in a clean room pushing buttons sipping a mocha latte while the actual combat goes on thousands of miles away, like playing a video game.
