Yes, I hope so. I was very surprised to see such a theory coming from someone that once was a US general - I guess a bluff could always provide a little deterrence. Perhaps a more realistic scenario could be NATO forces entering Ukraine, but keeping out from the front-line, highlighting that there will be consequences of a strike on any of their soldiers on the territory of Ukraine. If they don't do anything, it's going to be a big win for Russia and encouragement to go further.
