A Ukrainian soldier named Serhiy, returning from Russian captivity, has reportedly been found mutilated with swastikas carved into his forehead, as disclosed by Dr. Olexandr Turkevich, who is treating him.
The soldier, blindfolded during the ordeal, claimed Russian soldiers threatened to dismember him, citing accusations of fascism.
Sure. The other guy is also an ass for bringing up an unrelated topic, and if you had originally said what you just said we wouldn’t be having this discussion. But you chose to continue that unrelated discussion in a way that I’ve taken as defense of IDF actions. So maybe address what I said instead of deflecting.
Fair enough.
It was never my intention to come across as defensive towards the IDF. I simply wanted to point out why it doesn’t make sense to compare civilian casualties between the two conflicts. Me saying a war in Gaza would always result in a lot of civilian casualties didn’t mean Israel has done a good job. I’m very sure they could have had quite a lot lower casualties with better tactics, but it would probably still result in high civilian casualties. A war in an area like Gaza will always result in hell on earth.
Meanwhile Russia has every possibility to avoid cities, yet they are still bombing cities pretty much daily despite there being no military activity there. This is again not me defending the IDF. I’m just trying to keep the topic on topic.
