War crimes have already been committed, cluster bombs are against the law (Geneva Convention I think) , and there is also some probable damming evidence of a thermobaric explosion over night in if I remember correctly Peace Square.

I got the impression it was more general than Putin WWM. More the country than the man.

I think a no fly zone would "bastards out of Ukraine." more quickly than Ukraine not having one.

DaisyAnne if there were to be a no fly zone put in place over Ukraine, if Russian aircraft were then to enter the no fly zone and consequently be shot down by forces other than Ukrainian it is tantamount to NATO and/or third parties declaring war with Russia.

This is a situation that no one in their right minds should even consider, the consequences are unthinkable…

I can’t happen until we have him in the dock. So frankly I think it is a sideshow.

Our concentration should be getting these bastards out of Ukraine.

It is looking grim.

... what difference would this make?

I caught an interview where they said the International court was going to investigate possible war crimes in Ukraine over the attacks on civilians.

Does anyone know what this would mean? Would it, for instance, mean we could have a no-fly zone? Or is it that we are not having a no-fly zone simply for our personal safety.

I know none of us is an expert in this area but perhaps someone has seen/heard other reports.
