Bombing a maternity hospital, shelling residential buildings, firing on fleeing refugees, and destroying any infrastructure that supports the lives of innocent civilians … are all war crimes under international law.
Whoever is involved in the chain of command that gave the orders – all the way up to the head of state – can and should be charged. This means Russian President Vladimir Putin must be indicted for war crimes. (snip)Historically, the gathering of incriminating evidence has been both difficult and time-consuming. (snip) But the atrocities in Ukraine are different.
On a daily basis, the world has watched in real time many of the war crimes

There were no women in the maternity hospital. The rest of that sentence, more propaganda.The left ( FOX included ) is pushing very hard and when they do that you know that you're being manipulated.

Investigate, huh? It's not our problem. What we see on TV is not the whole story.
Investigate Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. We need to realize that, in those countries, we were the INVADERS.

Fox (and Murdoch’s New York Post) has become the lead war monger. Watch it at the risk of losing your mind.

Thanks, Greg. How did all those charges on the Russian hoax you recommended work out? Greg does analysis of the law, probably all correct, but the Democrats follow no law, and their judges and the Rino's allow it. As for Putin, it will be the same. Argument and reason are never going to work with the left. The only thing that will ever work is to strip them of power. We have to get used to the fact that most of the world is crazy. We are going to have to live with that.

War crimes charges are all well and good, but the problem is a country like Russia does not recognize western law. If thieves put together a government to benefit themselves, you would be something like the Russian government. Or China, or Iran, or Venezuela, or Cuba. Any number of countries would fit.
The outside world cannot change Russia without starting World War 3. The only alternative is Russia changing from the inside out, but the Communists have the country in a choke hold. It won't be easy, and it will take a long time.

Ukraine paraded and taunted Russian Prisoners of War in public, and committed a war crime with indisputable evidence televised to the world. Republicans know too well about a legal system that aggressively prosecutes one political faction while issuing endless get-out-of-jail-free cards to another. A Kangaroo Court is no court at all, but a ruse to allow persecution with minimal resistance. If you don't think a Republican President would be given the same treatment after the precedent is set, you just aren't paying attention to their tactics.

Brandon doesn't have the gonads to charge Putin with war crimes. It will have to be up to Boris Johnson or Macron to do the job.

#7. Russia may not be your cup o’ vodka, but that doesn’t make it Communist. I think you’re confusing it with China. Russia has a flat tax of 13% which means citizens keep 87% of what they earn. Does that sound Communist to you? Aside from that, I see very little difference between their government and ours at this point.

Charging Putin for war crimes opens up the US for the same thing for Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan. People just don’t think.

Let's bring NATO and the US in front of the "world tribunal" first and make them do some explaining over the last 20 years... and why THEY put Russia in this position.

Also, make him pay for all the physical damage he’s caused in Ukraine. Hit him in the wallet.

The propaganda machine is hard at work with Russia, Russia, Russia again. Learn what a "crisis actor" is. It is strange how face recognition programs keep finding the same "victims" in war after war or terrorist attacks. Biden, Pelosi, Romney and many other bad American actors send their children to Ukraine to lauder money back into their own pockets. Others like the Bushes' and Obamas' are more subtle. If the rumors are correct that American Bio-labs are located in Ukraine, we may be thanking Putin for saving the world from further biological attacks. Even China is calling for investigations into the American labs. Wouldn't that be a plot twist for it to be proven that bad actors from America really released the pandemic?

Why is the deep state pushing this war, which is not our country's business, down our throats? Answer: The next election. They plan to somehow use this mess to steal another election and gain even more power.

Creating/maintaining an environment where the next election can be stolen is the overwhelming single focus and priority of the American Left. Anything and everything they say and do from now till election night will be focused on that . Don't believe a single word they say .

A few US Presidents have been charged with "war crimes" over the years. LBJ and Nixon among them for American involvement in Vietnam. The two Bushes. Reagan, Truman, Ike, and Clinton. Even OBAMA for Syria and Libya. Leftist groups commonly send indictments to the World Court, and so it goes. Big whoop. There will be no Nuremburg Trials.

The bombing of civilians by Putin was done for a reason...he's hoping to discourage the Ukrainians from fighting back...a lame attempt at managing the outcome of his invasion...but...Zelinsky has the people with him and the world is watching...thanks to social media...there are no secrets now...and Putin has been labeled a tyrant and ostracized from the world's society...not what he expected...I'm thinking...this is not Crimea and obama's regime...no red line to cross...I'll bet obama is surprised when dealing with a fighter like Zelinsky...

Fox News has become full of 'you know what' and they are pushing the WH propaganda as well. Makes me wonder just how far, wide and deep our media is invested in Ukraine as well. They ignore completely the outright corruption of the Swamp, from the corrupt back handers of the members of congress and the WH, to the Pentagon funding only God knows exactly in those labs. If we thought Wuhan and Fauci funding that lab was outrageous, just wait until we find out more about those labs.
Putin is very protective of his nation, and there are also a lot of Russians living in Ukraine as well. If Ukraine is putting their munitions in civilian areas so Putin can give them propaganda, that is on Ukraine. Like the West Bank Palestinians and their staged PR, The Ukraine government is as corrupt as our own Swamp.

Some of the more gullible comments I see on my internet surfing make me wonder if they even care about the corruption going on in our own government. Corruption that built all the mess in Ukraine, from Zelensky on down to the labs. Putin has long said he would deal with any NATO or US involvement in nations that got too close.
If folks out there watching Fox cannot recognize the staged photos, or even refuse to recognize the manipulation being done to them for the sake of protecting DC's atm machine, well I don't know how much more I can say to those good folks. Starting with Clinton, our own WH and congress built this mess, and Putin is going to clean it out. Shall we advocate for war crimes for the WH and congress as well for their interference in a sovereign nation?

It is good for Obola and Hill that killing Ghaddafi with a knife up his bottom did not constitute a war crime. S/

It's hard for me to get on the Ukrainian bandwagon. I don't believe they're a democracy and certainly not a Representative Republic. The country has as much or more resources as any country in Europe. We should not have to send aid to them, they should be able to take care of themselves. The problem seems to be that we are protecting the financial interests of many of our crooked politicians, elites and of course, George Soros. We've stuck our noses in too many places that, in the end, cost a lot of American lives for no discernable reason. Vietnam , Afghanistan and Iraq, to name a few.

This one is "above our pay grade" - ALL OF US.
Let the LORD handle it, and pray that he will meet justice and/or "flip" Mr. Putin to His side, as He did Saul to Paul. It is never too late for God.
While we're at it: pray that WE are on God's side, as well.

There' s no doubt that Putin and Russia are destroying an entire country and turning it into a massive demilitarized zone as a result of SOMETHING. Whether it's Putin's dashed Soviet Union pride, or his abject fear of NATO "aggression," he's laying waste to an entire country and the cost to rebuild this MUST be laid at HIS feet. The Mother of all Sanctions must be leveled at Russia and every Oligarch's personal fortune must be confiscated toward rebuilding the cities of Ukraine. Russians are evil monsters.

Putin and a lot of military are war criminals. There are some good Russions, but not most of them. Putin is an evil demon.
