So how many free and fair votes are held by having armed soldiers go to each residence. Have the residents tell the soldiers their vote and then the soldiers will mark down the result of how they voted. Does this sound like a proper election to you?
It's like the old joke....from yesteryear... They took a poll in Argentina to see if the people thought that there were any Nazis there...... "30% said YES..and 70% said NEIN." .
BREAKING: Amnesty chief Agnes Callamard urges Ukraine not to shoot at newly mobilized Russian troops as killing untrained combatants would be very unfair.
She is an idiot. What did she say about the war crimes commited by Russia? or the innocent civilians in Ukraine? She does not understand what war means? Or is she getting paid by Vladimir. In war it is question to kill the opponent before you get killed. There are no other options. The only option the untrained Russians have is to surrender.
The problem with the "untrained combatants unfair" argument is that you have untrained combatants show up in a village one day and by the next they have killed many civilians. If they want to surrender, then they should do that. Otherwise, it is just a sad fact of war that many of these "innocent" untrained soldiers will be hardened war criminals within days. They need to be "removed." Grannie's life is as or more valuable than theirs, and the same for the grandchildren who will sent off to camps in Russia.
Sorry Treefrog - was sarcasm... But yes, we live in times when sarcasm and reality are hard to tell from each other.
