The only real possible positive that can be taken from all of this is that sending in an army of untrained, unequipped and unwilling soldiers in the long run might result in less bloodshed overall if they are defeated quickly, if you can even call that a positive.

Yeah, for sure. The scenes of men, many of which look unfit for combat, being torn from their families, are heart wrenching. Imagine watching your kid have a panic attack because they were taking you away, or watching your spouse being put on a bus with no provisions knowing they are going to a war zone. It's horrific to think about. A lot of these men are not going to last a week in Ukraine and they all know it.
