Ukraine Invasion - Please do not post videos showing attacks/similar

…You both have a lot more self restraint than me.

You don’t need restraint not to murder people. Isn’t that kind of the point?

"Russians = bad so it's OK to murder them" - said by people in here who are then complaining about the Russians saying "Ukrainians = bad so it's OK to murder them" and yet somehow don't understand that people saying either statement are pyschopaths.

Happily a good portion of the replies to these idiots are putting them straight, which is refreshing to see.

 

[Mr Jack]

I would say these people aren't POW's because there is no war. It's an illegal invasion. Ukraine isn't at war with Russia.

The Geneva Convention is drafted so as not to allow these kinds of shenanigans: they are POWs. Even if they weren't, that would make them illegal immigrants subject to domestic law not summary execution.

In the big scheme of what is going on in Ukraine, I find it hard to get particularly worked up over it, but it's still not good. It shouldn't happen, and I hope it's properly investigated and dealt with by the Ukrainians (who, to be fair, have condemned these actions).

I've not seen much media coverage of this story;

Czech Republic becomes first Nato country to send tanks to Ukraine
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/czech-republic-nato-tanks-ukraine-b2052261.html

It's strange how the Poland story was all over the media. Yet this hasn't got half the coverage.

These soldiers have either murdered, raped, tortured innocent civilians or they have stood around and gone along with it. You both have a lot more self restraint than me.

I would say I still want them to surrender rather than fight to the death.

Surrender and be treated well, or keep fighting and die in the mud. Those are the choices I want to give my enemy.

Strange reply coming from someone who has taken the coin of the realm to potentially kill someone because they've been paid and told to do so.

Get off your moral high horse. this is a filthy war where civilians are being raped, tortured and slaughtered and those Ukrainians fighting against it likely have friends and relatives who have suffered in this way. It's so easy to apply your logic and high morals when you are not in the middle of it.
