Even more bizzare that the good Friday agreement was signed 24 years ago and the Kosovo war ended in about the same time period. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Others quote him as saying "Britons are more used to seeing conflict in Africa and Asia.". "It's rather normal to see war and bloodshed in Africa and Asia." twists what he said to make him sound offhand and callous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 2 hours ago, renton said: Unless there was a legitimate military target in the near vicinity that the Russians were aiming for and missed, then it doesn't matter if the hospital was deliberately targeted or not - either they aimed for and hit the hospital (and dumb bombs can be accurate enough against large, static targets still) or they casually tossed off a wing load of high explosives into a built up urban area for shits and giggles. Neither of which is a good look. I agree. But tossing bombs into built up areas that are also contested territory is part and parcel of every single modern war. As well as dumping high explosives over entire cities that were nowhere near the front lines, which was par for the course in every major theatre of war from the late 1930s to at least the 1970s. I'm not sure where this expectation that a war in cities will somehow magically avoid collateral damage is coming from, because in practice that has never happened. If you seriously want to limit civilian casualties, then you hold a nice set-piece battle nowhere near Mariupol in the first place and concede victory to the winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say quite low. Not impossible but still low. There's no real benefit to China of handing out massive loans - and potentially damaging economic relations with the US and Europe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sanction would the US and Europe be able to seriously impose on China? I think they've got quite enough on their plate right now. This crisis gives China free rein to do what it wants, and securing a benevolent but not too close relationship with Russia is part of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
