God should appoint someone to stride the world and smite evil doers, to weigh and measure the moral equivalency of things.

Maybe an Archangel, someone with real heft.

That way you don't have to do it.

The other (Azov "gangsters") are doing "some ugly things in response".

I’m sorry, but what you’re saying is not true. Azov nazis are not doing “same ugly thing in response”. They’re doing the ugly nazi thing.

During wartime, tragically, innocent civilians do get killed. I believe, Ritter’s number was about 1 civilian fatality per 1 military combatant death. I think, when the dust settles, it will prove to be close to that number, if not lower.

Unless, they insist on counting the “saboteurs and collaborators” that got “cleaned out” by Ukraines special security forces in the “liberated” areas. Interesting that the UK blocked Russia's demand for a UN investigation. Also, interesting that there were no autopsies or pathology reports or crime scene investigations - - could it be because they would contradict Ukraine’s claims about the times of death? Or the locations of death?

They simply pronounced them martyrs - and had them quickly buried.

There we go. I said it. It had to be said.

As for the reasons for the war - you, my friend, have not been receptive to any of them. We'll have to agree to disagree.

There was a quick way to avoid the war or to end it early — accept Russia's demands for implementing Minsk agreements.

I do appreciate, btw, that you attack the message - but not the messenger. Imo, we all should try to do the same.

You are ill informed. When you couple in one of those entities is defending their homeland, the other is invading for no reason other than their dear leaders marching orders of fear of the future. The moral equivalency breaks down even further

Have you read the reasons for the Russian military action? If you are not allowed to listen or read, you should challenge your censors.
