Anyway you must be on Ukraine's side now @Grendel as you're a big fan of US foreign policy these days.

He seems a reasonable well balanced man.

In a totally shocking turn of events this woman has now been poisoned

Marina Ovsyannikova: Russian TV journalist known for on-air Ukraine war protest falls ill after suspected poisoning

Marina Ovsyannikova gained international attention last March after bursting into a studio of Russian state TV, her then employer, to denounce the war in Ukraine. She later said she had no regrets about her actions.

And it should. Israel has committed war crimes against Palestine while building illegal settlements in the West Bank under a far right regime. They only get away with it courtesy of a very strong pro Israel lobby in the US.

oh here it is - war crimes

oh here it is - war crimes

That’s fairly well recognised isn’t it?

Is it? So before this latest conflict Israel were guilty of war crimes?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

oh here it is - war crimes

What I’ve said there is indisputable. The West Bank is illegally occupied and the IDF have already committed crimes in Gaza.

Are people really denying that Israel doesn’t have a history of war crimes, especially in Gaza. In the 2008 Gaza War they were found to have used white phosphor in Gaza. White phosphor is not banned per se as ammunition but its use in populated areas is. There’s already evidence that they’re using it again this time. They’ve also have history of collective punishment. The Red are already accusing them of that this time.

Let me get this right.

Shelling civilians = absolutely fine

Prssident grows a beard = vile country

I’m loving it now we are having serious debate

I think it’s more to do with war crimes being acceptable when it suits, like cluster bombs.

Cluster bombs are a war crime when used against civilians. Ukraine have not used cluster bombs against civilians.

 

[Grendel]

Cluster bombs are a war crime when used against civilians. Ukraine have not used cluster bombs against civilians.

But amnesty international have said they have committed war crimes?

Of course they’re going to deny it ffs.

Its beyond embarrassing

 

[PVA]

If they did hit civilians they weren't targeting civilians, they were targeting Russian positions.

Unlike when Russia used a cluster munition on a busy train station killing 60 people.

Slight difference.

So both HRW and Amnesty International are spreading misinformation.

Sounds like in the eyes of the Un definition it’s a war crime?

of course they are

Oh right does it say in that article they were deliberately targeting civilians then?

Anyone found to have committed a war crime should be tried and punished accordingly.

But if you think that incident is remotely comparable to Russia (or Israel) deliberately shelling civilians then there's something wrong with you.
