No. Countries sat back and did nothing while we invaded countries.
That's just it. We can do it but no other country can do it ?

Let's not forget the son and father who went back for their dogs - heartbreaking video in the linked article. Trigger warning: violent dismemberment and death of civilian trying to flee with his son and pets from Russian army.

This is ordered and targeted slaughter of civilians, to state otherwise is being either obtuse or intentionally dishonest.

And so much for that fabrication being floated around that the saintly Russian troops aren't doing anything in Mariupol until the civilians are able to evacuate. Now that some have succeeded in fleeing Mariupol, the Russians are now bombing the Mariupol evacuees in Zaporizhzhia.

The evidence of warcrimes is abundant, and regardless of the ultimate outcome, all that are guilty should be prosecuted to the full extent.

Joe Biden delivers.

U.S.A. is sending Ukraine:

- drones
- 9,000 anti-tank launchers
- 800 anti-aircraft missile systems
- 7,000 rifles
- 20,000,000 rounds if ammo


Thank goodness we have competent leadership again in America

Russians bomb Mariupol theater where hundreds had taken refuge, officials say
Quote:
A theater where hundreds of people had taken shelter in Mariupol was bombed on Wednesday, according to local authorities, as hundreds of thousands of people remain trapped in the coastal Ukrainian city that has been encircled for weeks by Russian forces.

Mariupol City Council, who shared an image of the destroyed building, said Russian forces had "purposefully and cynically destroyed the Drama Theater in the heart of Mariupol."
"The plane dropped a bomb on a building where hundreds of peaceful Mariupol residents were hiding," it said.
CNN has geolocated the image and confirmed it is of the theater in the southeastern port city.

They have some nifty looking fighters and lots of missiles, but the tanks and trucks are not doing what they are supposed to do.

Imagine that - a country based on the kleptocracy model, having a pizz-poor setup for when the (cheap Chinese) rubber hits the road.

Many countries were right with us with troops on the ground.

Afghanistan attacked us. Saddam invaded Kuwait and gassed his own people.

Which of the hijackers were from Afghanistan? I think you'll find, Saudi Arabia were the biggest culprit. You know, our ally.
