I don’t blame them. Ukraine needs to take the war to Russia to win.

    An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. If Russia started using VX gas, would it be acceptable for Ukraine to start using Sarin? Absolutely fucking not. There is never a legitimate excuse for a war crime.

      There is never a legitimate excuse for a war crime.

      There’s one actually. Survival.

      If the situation gets to a point where your existence on the planet becomes problematic, you take the gloves off, you fight back with everything you can, especially if you’re protecting those that you love.

      Having said that, fuck war, and fuck war crimes. Wish the UN could resolve this crap before it gets to where we are now.
