War crimes ?

[wolc123]

Is it wise to say someone is guilty of war crimes and should stand trial for them, if that individual controls a very large nuclear Arsenal ? 
 

I can’t see what could be possibly be gained by such a statement, but it is pretty simple to see what could be lost.

I'm more concerned with all the crimes Biden is guilty of.

Crazy thought but if you arm civilians to shoot at soldiers. Than they get killed by said soldiers aren’t the you responsible  for said “war crimes”.

I'm pretty sure when it comes to war, we are the only ones that play by the "rules". Probably why we haven't won one since WWII.

Civilians with arms that fight back against an army/soldier shift to being combatants and are fair game.  These are the rules of engagement and the US followed this in Iraq.  Killing these "civilians" is not a war crime as they are combatants.

Many / most of the slaughtered were not combatants .

I say just give them what ever weapons they need to win . War crimes? probably I believe the Russians practice Total War when they go to war .

This is so true we really dont know whats going on over there for sure. Media lied about Trump and  could be lying about this war to who knows.
