How much longer?

How many threads do we need on the Ukraine? 

Well, the USA are saying that any attack on a NATO ally will be opposed by all NATO countries, so I wouldn't be surprised if one of those rockets lands in Poland soon.

I see today in the press and on the news there are those beginning to call for active opposition to Russia. Up to now I think most have agreed that a no fly zone is a non starter but suddenly today there seems to be a shift. 
How sure is anyone in Governments around the world and in Europe in particular that Putin is going to stop at the Ukraine borders? If he succeeds in Ukraine as he currently seems likely to do, if for no other reason than as we might be supplying arms, we are still sitting tight while only the Ukrainians actually stand up to him,  who is prepared to say that that will be the end of the story? I keep remembering those famous miserably false words 'peace in our time'.
