    And? This is common practice in all war. Ukraine certainly has military members who do this also. It’s almost like war is a horrific, terrible thing that horrific, terrible people are drawn to.

          I never said anything about purity. That’s an obsession of the simple minded.

          That being said, you can never fault someone for defending their home and their community when an armed threat literally come knocking.

        Yeah, how awful, understanding that war causes both forces to act inhumane is just so stupid, am I right?? 🙄🙄 instead we should pretend that the Ukrainian army is nothing but upstanding righteous heroes.

        Are you illiterate? Nowhere did I say it was okay, just that it isn’t news.

          Except that nobody has ever said that the Ukrainians are “nothing but upstanding righteous heroes”, that was all you putting words in people’s mouths and running with it for convenience.

          Besides, you’re bothsidedsing a report on heinous acts of genocide during an invasion. Disgusting POS.

      Yes, I’m sure all those Ukrainians were just gagging for Russia to invade so they could get it all out their system.
