    They may not, but it’s part of the war.

    London was bombed. Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Go to Europe and hear how things were more beautiful before the war/bombing.

    Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.

    That said, I see Ukrainians as fighting for their survival and I dont fault them in the slightest.

      Hiroshima and Nagasaki is one of the biggest war crimes. Would you support the usa getting nuked during iraq war or israel getting nuked because of the 57 years of occupation?

        I never said I supported it. That’s something you read into it.

        Bombing of civilians is a long established part of war. As was looting, pillaging and anything else that reminded the populace that war sucks.

        Gengis Khan doesn’t have as many descendents as he does because of consentual relations, for example. War is war.

        It’s not pretty. And none of that is me saying it’s okay.

        Find your villain elsewhere.

          If it was always part of wars and we should accept it why are you not applying this uncivilized and savage realities to russia?

            You keep putting words in my mouth and are clearly arguing in poor faith.

            I said no such thing and I’m done with you.

            Edit to add: people like you are why people leave lemmy or simply don’t post.
