Russia is welcome to withdraw from its genocidal, imperialist, unilateral invasion at any time.
"it's not a war crime if we're defending ourselves"
Do you put "sitting in the comfort of the first world trying to be the moral arbiter of a people desperately defending themselves from a fascist war of extermination" as one of your hobbies on your dating profile?
Edit: This reply was so ridiculous that I actually completely forgot to mention that this isn't a war crime under international law.
You're acting like this is some sort of situation that brushes up against being a war crime but falls just short because of some small, pedantic technicality, but no. As you can plainly read, this isn't even close to a war crime under international law, which is the entire way a war crime is defined, because it's, you know, a crime. You can't just hallucinate up international conventions on war and then act all offended when someone points out they don't exist.
This isn't just "not technically a war crime"; this is unambiguously not a war crime and was never in any danger of even approximating one.
Yes.
Do you consider castration, rape, and other systematic tortures horrific and to be fought back against with every tooth and claw available?
