How many people died in Iraq between 1989 and 2007 as a result of NATO member war and sanctions?
PS the primary targeting of civilians in Ukraine is done by far right cadres against Donbas civilians.
I'll wait for you to answer my question first. You seem to be forgetting what we are talking about. Take as much time as you need.
Please try to engage in good faith and not put words in my mouth.
It sounds like you are unfamiliar with the civil war in Ukraine from 2014 and on. 4X longer and constant shelling. Union halls burned down with people locked inside.
Feel free to state your point and what meaning you would like to share from your list of links. Take as much time as you need to formulate your thesis or counterargument.
Yes, bombing civilian infrastructure is horrific. The NATO countries I mentioned systematically target it. Rather than one hospital, imagine it was 80% of them. No clean water. Medical personnel routinely targeted. No imports of medicine, limited food. Disruption and control over electricity. Israel is doing this right now in Gaza. You can see with your own eyes what the difference is.
How evil are the countries that do this on a much larger scale and systematically?
Of course, that is what the shelling of Donbas has been for a decade. UA has continued to bombard civilian areas of the city of Donetsk this whole time.
I have listed basic fact. Please allow yourself to process this information that is new to you rather than lashing out and making things up.
It sounds like the main issue here is that you don't know how to ask questions. I'm sure that is frustrating, but childish namecalling won't make things better.
Let me know if you'd like lessons on how to ask a question.
