    No, it is not. Not all war is genocide.

        UN found no genocide. Genocide is genocide when there’s genocide, yes, but there’s no genocide in Ukraine so there’s no genocide in Ukraine.

          That link is empty for me. But is this also the same commission that found no evidence of genocide in Gaza for 2 years?

          There is genocide in Ukraine.

          Russia had kidnapped thousands of children in the first year of war - removing them from their families and forcing them in to Russian schools and the older children are being trained in the military to fight.

          Russia in the first days of the way when they captured many towns and cities, the troops took down signage and symbols of Ukraine. They target hospitals and schools and playgrounds with no regard. They fire their missiles and drones indiscriminately.

          Edit/ Also that Russia does not believe Ukraine exists and tries to deny the national identity of Ukraine - that’s an act of genocide This is widely reported.

          I don’t understand why you can hand wave the violence of Russia and justify their invasion.

          Russia have done a lot of what Israel has done if not more.

          I want the war to end and an end to the Palestine conflict. The only way is with the removal of the heads of states to be tried for war crimes, and the full removal of all forces.

          But that is a fantasy world apparently. Your friends in Russia can save face, money and man power by just getting the fuck out.

            No, this is fantasy. I’m not hand waiving anything, you’re parroting unsubstantiated claims. Stories like kidnapping children are especially unsubstantiated.

            The war will end when Ukraine concedes. No matter how much materiel NATO donates, it cannot win, and the war is increasingly unpopular.

                Reports from Ukrainian intelligence, sure, not actual verified proof of erasing Ukrainian identity nor of kidnapping. Do you just trust Israel whenever it claims Hamas is torturing babies? Did you believe the story about Saddam’s forces removing babies from incubators? You need verified proof before belief.

                  Hers a simple google search for you. Many sources.

                  But I bet this is all “right wing propaganda” somehow.

                    This shows 2 things:

                    1. As we already knew NATO had told the Soviet Union although that it would not move further East than East Germany
                    2. They understood full well that NATO moving East was seen as threatening by USSR given the promise not to do so was a “security guarantee” for them.

              I can say the same for you.

              Are you in Russias pocket to be parroting their fantastical claims?

              Why should Ukraine concede?

                No, I’m not parroting fantastical claims, nor am I paid to have a sober analysis of the Russo-Ukrainian War. You cannot say the same for me. Ukraine should concede (as they should have done when they had the chance a few months into the war) because they can’t win, and all they are doing is getting more of themselves killed. That’s why the war is increasingly unpopular, and Kiev relies on forced conscription.

                  Yes, you are. You just don’t see it apparently. You are repeating talking points from right wing Russia aligned media.

                  What is your opinion on the Israeli invasion of Palestine? Should Palestine just cede Gaza to end the war?

                    I’m repeating analysis even agreed upon by western sources, you’re repeating far-right propaganda and talking points. The difference between the settler-colonial genocide of Palestine and the Russo-Ukrainian War is that Israel intends to exterminate all of Palestine, and must to complete their settler-colonial project, while Russia only wants the 4 oblasts, which are already pro-Russian (that’s why Kiev has been bombing them for a decade). If Palestine surrenders, they die, if Ukraine surrenders then the war ends and the Donbass region joins Russia like they want to.
