We do zero business with Russia. The only way you punish Russia is to sanction the countries we *both* have business with. That's China and India, and you ruled that out in your last post.

No, the way you punish Russia is to build up our relationship with India so they choose to divest themselves of Russian oil in a way that makes sense for them. If you sanction them with a "them or us" binary and force them to choose "them," then you strengthen not only Russia but China as well.

Zelensky lacks the dudes, the guns and the money to push Putin out.

As has been explained to you ad nauseum, he doesn't have to push Putin out. History is full of examples where a small power that lacked the guns, dudes, and money to militarily force out a larger power were still able to win their military objectives merely by making it sufficiently painful for the large power to remain. Which is why Russia didn't win in Afghanistan, the U.S. didn't win in Vietnam (or Afghanistan), and why Iraq isn't a liberal western democracy allied with NATO.
