At what point in Ukraine's incursion inside Russia do you stop calling it "defense" and start calling it "offense"?

@robroberts7093
Attacking targets on US soil? This government has grown accustomed to living a sheltered life completely detached from reality. Maybe the best way to prove this government is part of the global community is to prove they are not out of reach of that community?
@bozep7712
