That's what it looks like when you hit a POL depot.

A relative who flew over North Vietnam said they were always looking for flashes on the ground that meant a SAM launch. Once they saw dozens of flashes all at once and worried it meant they'd be shot down, then realized they'd hit a warehouse full of SAMs and their mood shifted.

From glancing at their front page nearly all their threads had activity today so maybe the subforum generates lots of traffic? I'd guess that's why it is kept around but would assume if actions taken by people who met there result in enough law enforcement calls to Jeffrey it could still be shut down.

I'm kind of surprised the war news is not more one-sided in Russia's favor. Like, how have they not achieved air superiority or even supremacy yet? They're getting shot down by older, outnumbered versions of their own gear.

Slightly worried that some of the good news for Ukraine is false, ala mass-scale "ghost of kiev" or baghdad bob kind of crap. But really hoping the good news is true!

As I understand it, the French elections are coming up and a big part of Macron's public image to his voter base is being a big strong man who doesn't back down from anyone. Standing up to Russia is both probably an objective international good and red meat to his voters.

Hey folks, please check events in your area and turn out to your local pro-Ukraine demonstration. You're not going to directly affect Putin's decision making, but the more this makes the news, the more likely your governments will pursue a more stringent response against Putin.

It's been a tankie talking point for months that anyone supporting Ukraine's choice to defend itself is actually just lusting for Ukrainian blood.

I'm sure someone could compile a comprehensive list. Off the top of my head:

- "Your devotion to Western imperialism is betrayed by your lust for Ukrainian blood" :smug:
- "Putin is a monster. Full stop. But have you ever thought about how NATO is the real root of the problem? NATO NATO NATO NATO NARUTO NATO NATO. NATO? NATO" :words:
- "Azov exists, therefore Ukraine is a Nazi regime and Putin is doing the world a favor when you think about it." :hitler:
- "All this talk from the West about an imminent war is only amplifying tensions! If the West keeps talking like this, Putin will have to invade." :downs:

It's a violation of the Hague Convention of 1907, Article 4, Section II, Chapter I, Subarticle 23

quote:

Art. 23.
In addition to the prohibitions provided by special Conventions, it is especially forbidden -

To employ poison or poisoned weapons;

To kill or wound treacherously individuals belonging to the hostile nation or army;

To kill or wound an enemy who, having laid down his arms, or having no longer means of defence, has surrendered at discretion;

To declare that no quarter will be given;

To employ arms, projectiles, or material calculated to cause unnecessary suffering;

To make improper use of a flag of truce, of the national flag or of the military insignia and uniform of the enemy, as well as the distinctive badges of the Geneva Convention;

To destroy or seize the enemy's property, unless such destruction or seizure be imperatively demanded by the necessities of war;

To declare abolished, suspended, or inadmissible in a court of law the rights and actions of the nationals of the hostile party. A belligerent is likewise forbidden to compel the nationals of the hostile party to take part in the operations of war directed against their own country, even if they were in the belligerent's service before the commencement of the war.


quote:

Art. 24.
Ruses of war and the employment of measures necessary for obtaining information about the enemy and the country are considered permissible.

A ruse of war is permitted specifically for gathering information/recon, you cannot conduct sabotage or fight under the enemy's flag. If you are caught or apprehended fighting under an enemy flag, it is lawful for them to summarily execute you rather than take you as a POW.
