More War Crimes Uncovered

Mass graves dug up with gun shots to the knees and heads and hands bound. Amnesty evidence collected over two weeks suggests Russian forces used cluster munitions and scatterable mines in the city in April and early May.

What do we do? Still feed the Russian murder machine by the continuation of energy purchases and are too slow at providing Ukraine with missiles.

I fail to see why people apart from Jews/Relatives would now visit Auschwitz-Birkenauhttps when the same is happening again in Ukraine but many here want to close their eyes to it! Presume schools when they cover history and the Hitler days, the younger generation are told about war crimes and executions happening again in Europe in 2022.

Lets not humiliate Putin says Macron! On the other side of the coin - some want Boris out for win parties! No wonder Putin must be laughing his socks off!

Laughing his socks off? Must have pissed his pants when Ortega invited him over to Nicaragua.

Whilst I would certainly like to see Putin and co. punished for both the invasion of Ukraine and the ensuing war crimes committed and also see Russia made to pay the heavy reparations needed to rebuild the country I sadly doubt that this will be the case. Even if Western support in terms of military aid is ramped up enough to force Russia back I still believe that areas of eastern Ukraine will be lost to pro-Russian control. Whatever happens the lessons of Versailles will not be forgotten and the pragmatism of realpolitik will mean that the Western powers will still want to ultimately "re-habilitate" Russia into the global community. There is more to this than simply putting economic/business concerns above moral righteousness though because if Russia is punished too severely this would only lead to a more dangerous situation and leave the stability of Ukraine and much of eastern Europe in continued uncertainty and raise tensions for future conflict.

Blimey that must be fascinating but take quite a strong stomach! To add I wouldn’t last 5 minutes before turning green and chucking up, struggle to watch stuff like that on TV dramas!

Moral righteousness for Germany and Paris will let Russia retain all the land they stole, get the gas flowing again, and both countries all live happily ever after!

In terms of all those civilians executed, tortured and raped, perhaps like the Jews exterminated by Hitler - it will be written in history books rarely to be discussed.

In the U.K. many have more important issues such as Boris having a few fiestas de vino tinto too many and the shocking shocking treatment of illegal immigrants sent to Rwanda. Let our doors be open for everyone and ensure the dinghies have top of the range motors fitted!
