    “Russia’s forced transfer and deportation of Ukrainian children to areas under its control amounts to a war crime, the investigators said, also warning of possible crimes against humanity.”

    If it was a U.S. invasion they wouldn’t commit the “war crime” of evacuating children to safe zones and given roofs and food, they would be machine gunning them for sport and post-mortem pulling justifications out of its ass to get them labeled as combatants.

    Or you know, as they say, “Pizzaro didn’t step on every anthill on his way to conquer the Incas,” lucky for some children victims of U.S. empire they are not directly gunned down and instead ignored and left with bombed out water treatment and schools and hospitals and have the privilege of instead dying to the elements or risking thousand-mile journeys to immigrate to some Western land to be treated like dogshit.

    Cool stuff.

      Reminder that today is the anniversary of the Mai Lai Massacre that the US committed against over a hundred Vietnamese women and children. And it was just the one massacre the public found out about. Imagine hoe many more there were.

        Yeah I’ve always wondered how much shit they’ve gotten away with…I wonder even if a socialist party got power how much papers will burn before the masses knock down the doors. It really is fortunate for us that they tattle on themselves all the damn time.

        I try to not hate the average USian soldier and “forgive them for they know not what they do” it, but when shit like Mai Lai or those guys who were hunting Afghan children happens it’s hard to be so understanding. People who do these things might be the most overtly extreme but to me they’re the most honest face of the machine.
