That's what happens when they are found not guilty... | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Makes so much sense. I’ve definitely been tricked a few times…. “What did WotC do now???” | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
It’s crazy how many people around him have Russian connections but no collusion ofc | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Lol I'm just agreeing with your original comment "strongly disagree" ya know... I'm agreeing with your disagreement 🤯 | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Or that could just be an excuse and they didn't show him anything he already didn't know. He just agreed to pass it because Democrats agreed to let him keep his job if he did, which is fine by me. As long as it gets passed I'm okay with it | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Also, where was *Obama* during 9/11, amirite?!!? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Actually it was GamerGate (seriously, look it up, lot of the same central figures). | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Good. Harder for him to outrun the drones. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
He [wants to use the justice system to prosecute his opponents](https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/05/politics/trump-prosecute-political-opponents/index.html), not because they've committed a crime, but [in reprisal to his own prosecutions](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/aug/30/trump-interview-jail-political-opponents-glenn-beck) (which are definitely about crimes he's committed, again, blatantly and in plain sight).
His allies want to [go after the press](https://www.cnbc.com/2023/12/06/new-trump-administration-will-come-after-the-media-ally-warns.html) and fill the administration with cronies obedient to the boss.
He lied to his followers about his loss, leading to the events of Jan 6th. He tried to have the election results overthrown, [after saying he'd accept them "if he wins"](https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/02/politics/donald-trump-accept-2024-election-results/index.html) (with the implication, rightful in hindsight, that he wouldn't if he lost).
Your boy's a fascist. He's a threat to democracy. If he gets two more supreme court justices, it's good night America. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

I mean J6 happened | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
How is prolonging the war in ukraine good for ukranians? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Yeah. He didn’t even say he’d cut off aid lmao. People need to go just a little further than the headline. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
He won't. Trump only thinks he will. Which is funny, because Donnie presents himself as someone so elite that no one could possibly ever be in a position to be proud of him. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Doesn’t that still cost us to then replace those munitions? I’m genuinely asking because I want to understand the full picture of this. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Also isn't negotiating with foreign powers as a non-president (and also not in the staff or State Dept. etc.) illegal? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
We need him rn. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
If a pee tape exists, there is no conceivable way he would release it himself, even if he thinks everyone knows it exists, and even if his advisors say he should do so.
Saving face is *everything* to Trump and his reaction to anything negative is always to deny until it becomes impossible to do otherwise (and maybe keep denying even then). | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
We were going to replace it all anyway.
There are tons of articles explaining how it works….google Ukraine Lend / Lease program.
The U.S. aide package is called a “Lend/Lease” program for a reason. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
I feel real sorry for your caretakers | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

*Fuck trump and every other useful idiot that serves Putin.*
That pretty much includes EVERY Republican, everywhere. Vote accordingly. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
No, it's not.
And you were talking about money. What are you going to spend the money on? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Trump is scared Putin is going to kill him. That’s why he eats so much McDonald’s. He’s convinced his food is poisoned. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Lord how trump can you be? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
But he did lose in 2020... and his control of the Republican party only became more entrenched. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
The President doesn't have the power to challenge the politics, industrial, and military establishment in Washington. Prepare to have your mind blown when Trump negs on this campaign promise and funds Ukraine against Russia. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
The only requirements for being eligible for President is be 35 years old, a natural born citizen, and lived in country for 14 years. No disqualification for being a convicted felon or being previously impeached. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
You're not wrong, but that's also not what Trump described doing here. He isn't talking about disrupting Biden's ability to enact policy, with or without the House. He's talking about exercising presidential power before being sworn in, and while someone else is still legally the president. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Russia is not our peer-to-peer competitor, China is. This war is benefitting China, since now Russia depends on the rickety alliance they've created with North Korea and Iran, with China being the de facto coordinator of this group.
We should be focusing on South East Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Central Asia where China is expanding in, and is doing so with ease now that they have the cooperation of Russia. Why are we getting bogged down in Eastern Europe and the Middle East with two wars in Ukraine and Gaza. Are we stuck in throwback mode running through our Cold War greatest hits? This is what happens when our leaders are old and lack creativity, we're stuck performing reruns of shit we know will only lead to more military and financial instability throughout the world.
You support a geopolitically counterproductive war, so the onus is on you as to how this war benefits us in any way other than enriching the military industrial complex and the politicians who market this war for Big Business and Big Government. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Message might be for Russia, fine.
But that doesn't change the fact that Trump is still threatening to exercise presidential power before being sworn in as president, while someone else is still legally the president.
And it doesn't change the fact that his followers are stupid enough to support Trump in doing that. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Countering Russia and China is not a zero-sum proposition, especially when it’s so cheap and easy to counter Russia. Literally all we have to do is send Ukraine weapons and intel, which puts money back into our economy (look up what GDP is)
This is a “my head is full of bees” response. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
>So are you going to sign up when they run out of bodies? This army isn't going to win with just weapons/training?
That’s the thing, I don’t have to… yet. Ukrainians are already fighting them to protect the selves and their borders, and they need aid to go on.
>They won't be fully pushed back to the og border without other nations boots.
Thats seems to be the current reality of the situation. I don’t see at all why that should mean Ukrainians should hand them the rest of the country.
>Why not just drone strike/stealth bomb Putin and Co if he is such a threat to the west? It's not like the west doesn't know where he is, we have much of the communications tapped.
I honestly can’t tell if you’re just arguing on bad faith or if you just happen to be beyond ignorant on the matter. I shouldn’t have to explain why assassinating the leader of nuclear power is a bad idea.
>Could it be that we don't really care about Ukrainians and rather try to bankrupt Russia as a country to gain more spheres of influence?
Both things can be true. Aiding Ukraine and crippling Russia are both moral objectives.
I’ll ask you again. Do you honestly believe Ukraine surrendering or no longer getting international aid will benefit anyone other than the aggressor? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
The tape is probably just 2 call girls peeing on a bed with Trump watching. The MAGA supporters won't care what they see on the tape, and they'll vote for him anyway. A bigger problem is Trump has committed more serious crimes and gotten away with them all. We've got a serious **cult worship** problem in the US. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Move to California or overthrow the electoral college didn’t seem like reasonably helpful reddit advice. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Oh, good. And here I was worried my comment might not attract any self-important, nihilistic "both sides" bullshit. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
When people talk about the threat of nuclear escalation in the Ukraine, they're not talking about MAD.
If anything, what's more realistic is Russia using tactical nuclear weapons in strategic military and economy hotspots throughout Ukraine in the event of losing the war. The U.S came up with a similar plan during the Vietnam War known as [Operation Fracture Jaw](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_Jaw&ved=2ahUKEwiX7MjC2uGGAxUPSTABHYKyCDYQFnoECCUQAQ&usg=AOvVaw28WCvWgqmu202hnlW-rMQa). The plan was to use low-yeild nuclear artillery shells and payloads in strategic outpost in Vietnam that would explode in the event of an American retreat, irradiating the entire land in the process.
With the use of fission bombs, they could even avert irradiating themselves and the rest of Europe depending on the bomb's yield.
Once that happens, there's no telling how the West would react, but the ball would be in our court.
I don't think Putin is using mad-man theory, I think he would be desperate enough to nuke Kyiv the moment he realises there's no escape from a total loss in Ukraine. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Alot of anti-Trump reports turn out to be unfavorable interpretations of his words. But here's the thing..... I think most of Trump's intentions probably **are** aligned with the most unfavorable interpretation. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
So at what point do you sign up to go to Ukraine? Since you said not yet but they will need you. They are trying to claw back nearly 1 million men that fled, average age nearly 50 and abduct people that don't want to fight.
If you take out the leader and his co who is there to go against you? Install a puppet, take over the country or hope that his approval rating is truly fake and the public doesn't elect another him.
What's a surrender? Surrender would be Russia fully takes over all of Ukraine. Don't think that will happen. What I do think will happen is a stopping agreement giving up more land than the original agreement.
I believe our politicians don't care about "democracy in Ukraine" I believe they pretend because they can't be honest to the ugly truth. We want things/control in those areas. Also they think they can't cut military budgets because they will get voted out since the manf touches every state.
I would rather they be honest. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
"Oh honey" has become the "bless your heart" of secular liberals. Still cringe though, lol. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Probably better than it will view people who think Russia is allowed to dictate the policy of every country east of the Elbe for all time, or who just completely ignore Putin’s multiple extremely clear essays and speeches (for example: “On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians,” 2021, or “Address concerning the events in Ukraine,” 2022) in which he explicitly denies the existence of the Ukrainian people as a distinct nation and their right to an independent and sovereign state. Just a guess. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
I’m 100% convinced Putin is responsible for the events of Oct 7th, and the subsequent psyop being enacted on the young left wing in the US to get Trump re-elected and undermine US support of Ukraine. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

If he loses, they have to dump him or lose again. He is too old and senile. Might not make it through the next 4 years. He is not going to get any more coherent.
They'll just have to bite the bullet. Optimal case for them could be if he dies. If winning looks hard, maybe even before elections. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

I have been listening to a book on Audible called They Thought They Were Free…
It’s about the German population during the Holocaust.. before, during and after and the similarities to what is happening in the US now is staggering. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
So true | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
>Ah, so you'll let the Ukrainian men, women, and children do the killing and dying, while you do the talking... Got it!
So because I’m not there personally, throwing grenades at a trench means I can’t be in favour of sending aid to Ukraine? The fact is Ukrainians will fight Russia with or without the west’s support. But western aid stops them from being massacred in the process.
>Do you realize the billions of dollars Russia would need just to prop up Ukriane's government, infrastructure, social services, and economic activity? And that's before you take into account the billions of dollars needed to occupy Ukraine. Not to mention the fact that Russia would need about 1.2 Million soldiers to occupy all of Ukraine.
>Russia will push the Ukrainians all the way into the Dnipro River and call it a day. All they want is there buffer space. A neutral Ukraine is more beneficial to the Russians than an occupied Ukraine.
They didn’t stop at Crimea. They won’t stop at Dnipro by their own public admission. They came close to reaching Kiev during they early days of the invasion and if Bucha taught us anything. They have no qualms about murdering the civilian population.
>But giving Ukraine American-made bombs to attack a nuclear power is a better idea? The math is not mathing.
It’s called deterrence. Neither side can use nuclear weapons because of the knowledge that the other side has the capacity to retaliate in an equal proportion. Thus either side is protected from retaliation. Sending conventional bombs to Ukraine is meaningless in terms of escalation, since Russia is already bombing Ukraine. Assassinating their sitting president would be an extraordinary attack that would call for extraordinary levels of escalation. These are not difficult concepts to grasp.
>Do you serious believe this conflict is being fought on moral grounds? Boy, you're in for a rude awakening when Western corporations come to collect on the debt Ukraine accumulated to fund this war. Not only do we send them to the meat grinder to, destroy 1/3 of their country, but also we suck up their natural resources and finances for decades to come. Yay neoliberalism!
No, I’m not naive. I know wars aren’t fought over moral grounds alone. But I can also morally evaluate the action of the opposing forces. What Russia is doing on Ukraine is nothing short of criminal.
>I’ll ask you again. Do you honestly believe Ukraine surrendering or no longer getting international aid will benefit anyone other than the aggressor?
>Yes. Now, let me act you a question. Do you seriously believe that Ukraine sacrificing their future for the West is anything more than another for-profit neoliberal war?
I think this really is the key to our difference in views. You seem to think Ukrainians are fighting to fulfil the will of the West. This is simply false. Ukrainians are fighting to secure the future of THEIR OWN PEOPLE. Their families, their homes and their lives are at stake, and they’re fighting to protect them. If you can’t take that at face value I see no point in continuing this conversation. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

Can you guess which country I never defended or even *mentioned* at any point? Maybe you should have considered that prior to the standard “but other people are also bad sometimes” wall of text that mysteriously seems to crop up any time anyone is ever even remotely critical of something Russia is doing. But yeah, I’m sure the people advocating that everyone just give the invaders everything they want all the time will be remembered extremely fondly; well done.
PS: it’s fun how you blame other countries for “funding” the war but not Russia for **starting** that same god damn war, lol. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
I don't think Biden can pass another Ukrainian aid package before January and the current one isn't going to supply Ukraine forever. Also a Trump victory likely means republican gains in congress especially MAGA republicans. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

If you really are an American then you are a disappointment to your forefathers. A democratic country is bleeding, they know that if they lose to Russia then it's the end of their identity and likely the end of their lives and the lives of their children. While you might not agree to help them (despite the fact that all your precious dollars are ending up in Americans pockets through MIC contacts) to tell them to "just give up" would make your founding fathers roll in their graves. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

What I detest more than anything are soft westerners living in their cushy realities lecturing people about democracy and liberalism when all we've done for the last 50 years was start constant for-profit forever wars that lead to nowhere other than total defeat. Vietnam. Iraq (both times). Afghanistan. Libya. Syria. Yemen. Somalia. Ukraine. Gaza. It never ends, and each time there are people like you justifying the deaths of overs like if you'd know anything of what's actually happening on the battlefield. People like you, who bump their chests and scream "ra ra ra USA" while other people are paying for the consequences of your rhetoric in blood, and for what? So that western companies can make billions of dollars more than they already have? The fact that you (and others) can't see this irks me to my very core. It's even worse when you realize ten years from now and once this war is over, we'll be reading of what actually went down in Ukraine when they declassify everything, and only then will you realize how foolish you were in supporting this war. It happened in Iraq. It happened in Afghanistan. In Vietnam. And so on...
> They didn’t stop at Crimea. They won’t stop at Dnipro by their own public admission. They came close to reaching Kiev during they early days of the invasion and if Bucha taught us anything. They have no qualms about murdering the civilian population.
... You do realize the Russians had an air and naval base in Crimea, right? The "invasion of Crimea" was not an amphibious invasion, or even a land-invasion at that. Russia already had soldiers stationed in Crimea, the same way the U.S has soldiers stationed at naval bases in Hawaii. If Hawaii were to try to secede from the Union, the U.S would send in troops to secure Hawaii because of the strategic position of its naval bases and would deploy troops from within said naval bases to deter further secession. Putin did the same thing. He already had troops stationed in Crimea, and sent in 16,000 expeditionary troops to secure Crimea. Its not like it was a shooting war between Ukraine and Russia. Russia was already stationed there and took Crimea because of its strategic bases, not because Putin is some evil dictator mastermind, but because he's a strategist. Never underestimate the enemy.
And like I said in my last comment (which you clearly ignored lol) Russia doesn't have the economic nor military power to control all of Ukraine. Why would they want to go past the Dnipro? That means having to fight Ukrainian insurgencies even if the war was won today. It would be their version of Afghanistan. I guess your comment makes sense if you base your opinions of the Russians as being power-hungry sadists who would murder a box of kittens, but any military/intelligence officer with a modicum of military strategic planning would shudder at the thought of occupying 30 million people who are against you and your country's goals.
> It’s called deterrence. Neither side can use nuclear weapons because of the knowledge that the other side has the capacity to retaliate in an equal proportion. Thus either side is protected from retaliation. Sending conventional bombs to Ukraine is meaningless in terms of escalation, since Russia is already bombing Ukraine. Assassinating their sitting president would be an extraordinary attack that would call for extraordinary levels of escalation. These are not difficult concepts to grasp.
1) Where do tactical nuclear weapons fit into MAD doctrine? When people talk about nukes being used in Ukraine, they're not talking about ICBMs being launched into Ukraine from Russia, what they mean is Russia using tactical nuclear bombs in strategic militar/economic hotspots in the event of Russia losing the war or its front line collapsing. This isn't out of the ordinary, the U.S had a plan known as Operation Fracture Jaw in the Vietnam War which basically meant hiding nuclear bombs in strategic "fall-back" locations that would use nuclear tipped artillery and other bombs to detonate in the event of a collapse in the front lines or an American retreat. Ukraine is not in the EU, its not in NATO, and if Russia uses fission powered low-yield nuclear bombs, they may even be able to detonate a bomb in Kyiv without irradiating themselves or the rest of Europe. Then, the ball would be on our court. Would we really be willing to sacrifice the rest of humanity for a couple of cities in Eastern Europe? These are not difficult concepts to grasp buddy, stick with the program!
2) This makes no sense. The U.S is giving Ukraine American-made bombs to explode inside Russia. When did Russia ever send Russian-made bombs to Mexico or Canada to bomb the U.S? Is Ukraine an extension of the U.S now? Since when did Ukraine become the 51st state? This is clearly an American escalation, since Russia didn't escalate the war into the U.S. What are you on about? I think you, and many other Redditors, are way out of your depth when it comes to discussing this issue, and I'm glad most of you are chronically online and not making any decisions at the Pentagon.
> No, I’m not naive. I know wars aren’t fought over moral grounds alone. But I can also morally evaluate the action of the opposing forces. What Russia is doing on Ukraine is nothing short of criminal.
Just wait till western companies comes knocking on Ukriane's door to collect on its massive debt it owes to the West. Then you'll see the real criminals. But then again, they're the criminals you support, so I doubt you'll care when Ukraine becomes the next neoliberal hotspot.
> I think this really is the key to our difference in views. You seem to think Ukrainians are fighting to fulfil the will of the West. This is simply false. Ukrainians are fighting to secure the future of THEIR OWN PEOPLE. Their families, their homes and their lives are at stake, and they’re fighting to protect them. If you can’t take that at face value I see no point in continuing this conversation.
I thought you said you weren't naive, lol. But in all seriousness, The U.S is not going to fund a war unless it will benefit from it economically, militarily, and geopolitically. Ukrainians aren't calling the shots here, which you seem to believe they are. Ukrinainas aren't the ones funding this war. They aren't the ones making money off of this war either. They're the ones who are infecting themselves for decades to come. They are the ones who are losing their land. And worst of all, they are the was doing the dying while people like you cheerlead them to their deaths, and if you can't see that, then there's no point in continuing this discussion. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

>Maybe you should have considered that prior to the standard “but other people are also bad sometimes” wall of text
If you think the last 50 years of constant nonstop wars and interventions by the U.S is a "Merica Bad wall of text", then you're more braindead than I thought.
You do realize that when you liberals use to stand for something, it was those wars I listed above they protested, right?
I know, I know, its a difficult concept to grasp now that you guys are the cheerleaders for the Military Industrial Complex and funding forever wars, but you parents and grandparents at least stood for something worth fighting for, and not just another neoliberal for-profit war. Shame. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
No, I'm talking about people like Hasan, Cenk, Kyle Kulinski. Most of what they talk about are the things that I mentioned, especially the pro-terrorism parts. Same with most progressive threads on Reddit that I've seen. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Considering you seem to think Europe is a country I'm really not worried. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
You're awesome. I wish more people paid attention to the full hearings. There would have probably been public support for impeachent if everybody knew it was basically Donald Trump selling out his country's national defense for personal gain. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-18-06 |
Seems others have covered it for me above. Take a look. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-18-06 |

"free israel"? So maybe I misjudged you, sorry. I agree that their dictator has to go. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Yes. They are now given to foster homes. Names have been changed. And when they are 18 little putlers plan is to send then to war. There is 1 million army of Ukranian kids currently in russia… use to be Russia very evil almost non human behaviour | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

The vast majority of mass killings, civilian deaths in war, and even war crimes are NOT genocides. Definitions are important. Calling everything a genocide, takes away the importance of addressing real genocides. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Don’t do Diddy Kong Racing like that! | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
When you don't have any children left to send for your war, you capture those of your enemies to send instead. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
It isn't a genocide. Civilians dying because of war is not the same thing. There is no ethnic cleansing, that's a pure fabrication. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Including other things in the convention, doesn't change the definition of the word though. "cide" means killing. and genocide means the exterminating a group through killing. UN could add rape to the genocide convention. That doesn't make rape genocide.
Even by the convention, it's a stretch to conclude Russia's intent is to exterminate Ukraine culture through the transfer of children.
There is plenty of horrific war crimes that we should be actively fighting against, but that doesn't make everything genocide. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
I stopped reading after 1 word since it was obvious you ignored my response. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Should be more common to call out Russia, Israel, and Hamas, but most people are going with two out of three. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Doesn't surprise me since that's what people like you are all about.
Differently from what you think, I've read what you told me to, but it didn't change my opinion on the situation in anyway, you on the other hand are not even trying to search other info on what's happening. But again, this doesn't surprise me.
I don't want to waste more time, bye. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

Canada isn’t helping to hold them accountable by failing to meet its 2% NATO target. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Or they'll argue since it's not official that it's not real. Even if most nations already declare it as genocide. I don't mean Tiktok users only. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
They should and even then that won’t stop Israel taking over the rest of Palestine and killing Palestinians. They think 100’s of Palestinians is acceptable for 4 hostages. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
What does accountability look like? What we consider war crimes are a badge of honor in Russia. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
Wasn't that target only suggested a few months ago? Nevermind that Canada completely disarmed many of its artillery units to help Ukraine. Not really a smart criticism IMO. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |
yes becase unlike 1 braincell "chads", people you call "woke" may read genocide conventions and figure out that it's point 2e is literally for what putin and Lvova-Belova have arrest warrant issued by ICC. Putin didn't even denied russian armed forces moving those kids to russia when their living relatives is still in Ukraine.
