[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why aren’t we razing Minsk to test Russian resolve?

We have more than enough conventional materiel to turn it into a crater.

It isn’t in the Russian homeland so we can escalate without tripping nuclear wire

Is it because Minsk is white? [/quote]

Well, aside from the moral aspect, that'd be a war crime.

DP.

Um - “comparatively” not a war crime.  Moreover, we could just use the Russian approach to charges of war crimes:

- what crime?  It didn’t happen.  We know nothing.  It was someone else.  Try to prove it.  You have nathink.  You are nazi! “[/quote]

No. If Ukraine breaks international law, it will only weaken the ability to prosecute Russians later. (although I'm totally sympathetic to the impulse to do so.)[/quote]

Russians will never be prosecuted for the same reasons that American pilots who bomb hospitals aren't. They have nuclear weapons and no country can force them to hand over suspects. Modern war crimes trials are for people from countries unable to protect their own citizens [/quote]
