Call it a ‘special operation’ and everything is fine…

And Russia can think of no circumstance under which a military strike might be justified 🙄

Where do I start.

“Neither will allow their territory to be used for any action that threatens the other and will provide no help to an aggressor attacking either nation, according to the text, which also said they would work together to counter military threats.”

Lavrov missed his career as a stand-up comedian.

It would be illegal for Russia to target a fucking playground too, but killing kids is acceptable to imperialist scumbags I guess. How about you go to the front lines loudmouth? The average Russian soldier isn't lasting weeks from conscription to daisypusher. Fuck these terrorists.

It’s cool because neither Iran, Russia or the USA are in the ICC.

So who’s going to prosecute?

Lots of things we once thought “illegal”, with respect to how a country behaves , only a short while ago , are now happening. See Ukraine / Gaza and now what the Trump cohort are up to.
The international order is burst I’m not sure what the UN is for any more- it seems unable to influence anything
