No, they shouldn't. They should acknowledge that isolated war crimes have occurred in every conflict, and the US military has had members commit atrocities. In the past, like with the Native Americans or My Lai, they were committed with tacit approval from High Commands. My Dad told me about isolated incidents in Okinawa. Google "Cave of the Virgins" and shudder with horror.
This is way different than what's going on now in Ukraine. I am a student of military history. The Dresden bombing was technically not a war crime, but that made no difference to the children who died of smoke inhalation, fire or falling buildings.
It was not an Official Policy. It was a war crime of frustration, rage, and a breakdown of discipline by soldiers who were getting sniped at and blown up by booby traps until they went berserk.
Asians from the steppes and Siberia. In WW2 they were some of the best fighters and also committed the majority of the atrocities against civilians in Poland and Germany in 1945
"people" on places like OAN are agreeing with their Russian overlords saying this is just a "false flag" op to make the Russians look bad, i'm sure Boobert, and greene will agree.
I don't think My Lai was the only example of soldiers massacring civilians, just the only one publicized. War is all about death, destruction and degradation.
Not exactly. His name was Thompson, not Thomas, and it was an observation chopper, not a gunship. He saved one child and reported the massacre to superiors. He was a good man, but he wasn't able to stop the massacre. Very sad story.

Wrong is wrong and it should be labelled as such.

I will not jump to the conclusion that you are working towards an Order of the Red Banner
Takes months to learn a new fighter type. AA we're already sending

See my other reply. Even if it took months, it doesn't look like this'll be over all that soon without them.

I think it is open to interpretation.

Were the pre-teen girls who were raped and murdered also possible collaborators? Is that not an "open-shut case," ffs?
Do you have a soul at all?
Two audiences: Fox News viewers.
Don't forget Kissinger to make it triple play!
I grew up in NC, never left, and I've always used "hang a u-ey" or "pull a u-ey"
They were lucky to be alive. Some of my family had to figure out how to leave East Prussia when the Russians rolled in.
Patriot missile batteries would be HUGE. Shooting down the cruise missiles RUS is lobbing at them.
