Butler was critical of US wars; he didn't discuss foreign ones. I'm not sure he would have agreed with you about Ukraine. Butler wrote "War is a Racket" in 1935, before World War Two. I think he also would have approved of the US fighting to stop the advance of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. His main beef was with World War One, which was nothing more than a meat grinder, and the various American colonial wars.
Regardless, Putin started this war. He could end it tomorrow. Saying anyone else is responsible is like the man beating his wife while yelling "look what you make me do!"
