Is President Putin a "war criminal"?

Question

I dont think so... but the media is saying that.

I think the USA/NATO's strategy would be to carpet bomb Kiev. Then send in troops and tanks to build a base there.

President Putin has been very gracious in reducing Ukrainian casualities as much as possible. At the expense of his soldiers' health and lives, and the destruction of his military's equipment.

He is there to liberate Russians from the tyranny of Ukraine's russophobic laws. Not kill and maim them. Children can't speak Russian at schools!!! BULLLLLSHIT.

His grace and mercy is unmatched by any politician in the modern era.

No more than George Bush or Tony Blair is.
President Putin made a big mistake invading Ukraine and walked right into America's trap. 1. 1. Now America has shown how weak the Russian military is.
2. Countries that were afraid to join nato b4 are now willing,
3. The US is making huge money selling arms to NATO countries.
4. The US is making huge profits supplying them with oil/gas.
5. China who has been getting too big for their boots in the south China Sea is now questioning the strength of their military as most of their equipment is based on Russian design or is Russian.
6. Buyers of Russian military equipment like India will having seen the failures of Russian tech will stop buying Russian military equipment and switch to equipment NATO countries.
7. US Congress will now approve more military spending for the us military meaning the US though already far ahead of Russia by 30 years will advance further while Russia stagnate further.
8. With Russia losing in Ukraine America through its NATO allies will control the Black sea and be able to move the US navy into it fof the first time in 100 years.
9. With control of the black sea region the US will be able to connect through Georgia into the caspian sea for the first time even establishing an airforce and naval base there.
10. With access to the caspian sea thanks to Georgia the US will be able to access central asia which is rich in untapped minerals and oil/gas which will undermine Russian oil/gas profits even further as the US build pipelines into Europe and sell all manner of manufactured goods and US companies build the economy and infrastructure of central asia.

Putin has two choices in Ukraine
1. Continue fighting and the weakness of the Russian military to be shown to the world and Russia bleed men and resources that they can not afford and the Russian economy crumble due to sanctions and the US benefit massively from the conflict over the years.
2. Pull out of Ukraine and Putin will be overthrown or have to step down due to defeat in Ukraine. No use setting yourself up as a strong man and military leader if you lose a war.

Regardless Russia will end up being a pariah state like Iran or end up being a client state with a government approved by the US.

Well did he actually order the mass killings of civilians in Ukraine and the gang rapes by Wagner group and Russian soldiers or is the Russian army just that chaotic?

He either ordered it, which would make him a war criminal or the Russian military and mercenaries are all just a bunch of thugs who do whatever they want anyways, and orders are just a suggestion.

Regardless of war criminal or not he is a terrorist, constantly threatening to destroy the world with nukes.

Of course if your Russian, your the only free people left the entire rest of the world is Nazified.

Trying anyone as a war criminal is kind of ridiculous. What’s the point? Will it stop war from ever happening again? No. Will it stop the killing of civilians or destruction of non-military structures? No. Will it be applied equally across the entire world? No. The only people who get tried as war criminals are goddamn warlords in Africa or some random Serbian general from the wars in the Balkans. If you believe this is “justice served” it’s not. Putting one man into prison because he ordered some killings isn’t going to do anything or bring anyone back.

But hey if it makes you feel better about things go for it. But the ICC (International Criminal Court) in the Hague is a joke.

Mixed feelings Biden taunted Putin and still is desperately trying to get Putin to do something that allows Biden to attack but look like it was fully defensive. Is a president responsible for their troops, yes but only if they know. Does he really know? Putin has already mentioned some things he was not told of! Next what is the real reason for this war/conflict? Is it what we are being told hell no! We can't get the real answer about our own government! We the world are all doomed unless we the people of this world start running it!

Were the US government war criminals for supplying the drugs for their "war on drugs?" Were the people of Vermont war criminals for genocidally sterilizing the Abenaki tribe for declaring themselves present in their own territory? Were the entire masses of US's south, war criminals, for allowing doctors there to actually prescribe brazil nut amputation as means of treating the "manic anxiety" of responding to the human heart's call to find freedom? Are grocery store butchers war criminals for their mass transport of slaughtered cadavers across most of the human populated regions with access to answer this blind spotted swiss cheese of a question? Does it matter much, really? Sure it does.

I'm absolutely CERTAIN with your background in your 17 years, that you are qualified to ramble on with some line of absolute bullshit like this. Sad to say that with this line of brain-dead logic, you will sucker a bunch of people to respond to this mindless query.

Good luck, "STAR"

YES, he is a war criminal and a bully and a murderer as well. And it's funny how some years ago, our current president agreed with his actions.

RolandCuthbert · Answer

What the fuck?

No Putin has done quite the opposite. He uses civilian casualties as a way to punish Ukrainians for resistance. He is a coward and does not try to even engage the Ukrainian army unless he has to. His plan is to bomb women, children, and non-combatants to break the will of the Ukrainian people.

Notice on other side, no one is bombing Russian civilians, even as Ukraine has the capability to do this.

So get this lying trash out of here.

Is this a joke?

Can you please share the nature of the traumatic brain injury you suffered.

There is no price given for the most utterly clueless post of the day. Just so you are aware.

How would we know without following the order flows, most war crimes are made by soldiers, not the top leaders. Who decides to bomb buildings, the scared soldiers fearing there can be enemy soldiers in it or putin? The worst side of people come out during war times.

I'm pretty sure bombing hospitals makes you a war criminal..

Of course he is… Long before today, he did similar things in Georgia in 2008, the war was for just 5 days and we didn’t have that much social media presence to direct the world’s attention to us.
