How is it a warcrime? You see a large enemy force you bomb it. Unless there was a ceasefire or the war ended, you attack them. Whether they are advancing or retreating.

I wanted to ask that why Russian can't have that "Bomb Enemy" badge?

They do not want to annex Kiev and administer it. They want to force Ukraine to accept neutrality and guarantee that it will never join NATO and they probably want to install a pro-Russian government as well. Russia does not need to invade Ukraine as there are many Russian people living in Ukraine that can achieve their goals for them, including Ukrainian politicians of Russian origin.

A pro Russian government of Socialist Party of Ukraine will be the best answer but how much support do they have? They have support in the East and South of Ukraine but North and West is pro Nato. I can only see Russia making Ukraine militarly weak and then forming a separatists buffer state with the Socialist party of Ukraine in power. The rest of Ukraine needs to be neutral otherwise Russian plan will be 50% success. The current leader in charge wants to risk it all for Nato.

The issue is the west is very attractive, their liberal/secular culture is winning hearts and minds, their economy success and living style is wanted by all, the opposing powers including the Muslim states are struggling to find ways to counter this.

Just on lighter note brother.

Spoken like someone with no knowledge of the subject:

“The law of armed conflicts clearly forbids the killing or wounding of an enemy who … is … hors de combat.” - examples of war crimes that could be considered as grave breaches of the 1949 Geneva Conventions include: “Denial of quarter (i.e., killing or wounding an enemy unable to fight due to sickness or wounds or one who is making a genuine offer of surrender).”


I love these questions.

So you're telling me that it was a large army of wounded soldiers unable to fight? Was this army retreating or surrendering? Were they heading to Saudi Arabia to surrender?

Yes the naked aggression began in 2014 when Russia attacked Crimea. So what?

More than 150,000 Ukrainian's have now fled their country to Poland and Bulgaria. The entry queue is so large it is expected that it will take three days to process all the arrivals. Source: BBC World Service Radio.

It doesn't matter what you think, the law is very clear on this, please feel free to google it.

Who cares how much support such a government would have? It's not like Eastern Europe is run democratically. This whole mess started with a series of color revolutions and Western-backed coup to begin with.

I think people look at all the fancy flags and panic

You see them bombing Ukrainian forces on the road. Looks like they don't need a bomb enemy badge.

This is disingenuous.

1. Iraq invaded and annexed Kuwait in 1990. US-led forces protected KSA and liberated Kuwait in 1991 with UN mandate.

2. Yugoslavian Civil War and its implications.

3. Yugoslavian Civil War and its implications.

4. Home to Al-Qaeda Network which was responsible for numerous terrorists attacks around the world including 9/11. US-led forces dismantled Al-Qaeda Network in the region with UN mandate.

5. Controversial development but the oppressive Saddam regime is gone for good?

6. Qaddafi regime was about to commit genocide in politically rebellious Benghazi.

7. Assad regime is responsible for destruction of Syria.

Can WE stop making excuses for oppressive dictators?

I have marked that post as trolling and removed it. Let this be a reminder that sheer amount of likes on a post won't make it exempt to judgement.

You believe every single word the West tells you?

These actions have resulted in the death of millions, and the destruction of whole countries.
