Putin's War Crimes

Post by attofishpi »

Below are images of what life means to a dictator with a big ego and obviously a very very small penis..

Coincidently I was looking at the exact same images yesterday and thinking the same thoughts.

Seems like their is a dictator for every generation.

Hell in paradise...seems about the gist of what nature does.

I don't even know how people who are not directly caught up in this crime can even function normally, knowing there are injured people buried under piles of rubble unable to free themselves. Those people could have been you, imagine the torture of lying injured and not knowing if they will ever be rescued. Urgh! what an ugly world we raise our children in. It's as if people do not seem to have a problem laying their eggs in shit.

calling someone a criminal and having the power to prosecute them criminally are worlds apart...

It's even worlds apart from stopping the criminality.

It's about as effective as trash talk.

Why would Ukraine want to join NATO anyway? It must have known it would provoke him. How would the US feel if Russia had military bases on the order between the US and Canada? And that's exactly what the fucking US does--plant its fucking military bases everywhere it can.

Still, seems odd that just as the world is starting to recover from a pandemic, Putin goes insane and tries to start WW111...

Personally, I hope Putin just pulls out of Ukraine as we did with Afghanistan and Iraq. It's not the ideal state of affairs but at least it would show a human side to him.

We are MISSING information!

While Putin is certainly a dick for his actions here that may lead to WWIII, what does 'war crimes' mean unless we are all beginning with some pretense of life as some grand game of Monopoly? War itself is the crime. I don't know how one measures one as being more or less fair for their actions in any act of war. To the other side, WE are the ones with the devious criminal behavior with more just suspicion. We need to SET the example if we expect to discourage behavior we don't approve of. That is why I opened that thread on examples of our deception in capitalist countries. Putin is 'capitalizing' on the methods practiced here with proof of success when WE are being most deceptive.

I agree. I've always thought that 'war crimes' is a ridiculous expression, as if some mass murders are 'moral' and others aren't.

Not really, where there is an unprovoked deliberate act that causes physical or psychological harm to men women and children, including damage to or loss of someone else's property they've propbably spent years and years, and shed pints of blood sweat and tears building, not to mention the money spent on building their cities, just to see all that reduced to dust and rubble at the hands of their neighbor, is actually a crime. There are lots of different types of crimes. A crime is an act of war.

A war crime is a violation of the laws of war that gives rise to individual criminal responsibility for actions by the combatants, such as intentionally killing civilians or intentionally killing prisoners of war, torture, taking hostages, unnecessarily destroying civilian property.

If we are not going to behave in an evolved and civilised moral manner towards ourselves, then we are all guilty of being felonious,illegal,illegitimate,illicit,lawless,unlawful,wrongful criminals. We either live peacefully together, or we live in constant conflict... there is no middle way to behave..

As opposed to 'good wars' where children and other normal people don't get maimed or killed. Hmm.

There is no such thing as a good war... war is always bad, always, always BAD
