After reading this, I'm pretty sure that you haven't really read what I've been saying - hence the cherrypicking parts of a post to make a point that has been made numerous times.
A direct conflict is not the only concern here - a proxy war would be more likely but just as damaging.
BTW - by the US attacking Russian interests, they are in effect attacking Russia.
