    Sad. Regardless of what side you’re on, Ukraine is sovereign. They gave up their nuclear missiles on exchange for sovereignty and protection from both Russia and the USA. It was Ukraine’s sovereign right to join NATO even though I hate NATO. This IS a war crime.

      This IS a war crime.

      no it isn’t.
      regular combatants fighting regular combatants using conventional weapons is not a war crime by any definition

            I tried my best to find an old article from a year or so ago. Russia struck a residential building with a hypersonic missile. There’s been a lot of striking residential areas. If you think Palestine is an atrocity but Ukrainians dying is okay, I can’t taken you seriously.
