    So Russia should start using nuclear weapons and chemical and biological attacks, and blowing up nuclear power plants in Ukraine, then?

      Putin is dead if he tries that. The rest of the world will depose him forcefully.

      It’s not like he’s not doing it because of the Geneva convention right now. He’s clearly not following many of those rules already because he knows nobody will stop him.

      That’s what I’m saying, the only thing that matters in war is the limits imposed by others, Not self limits.

          You realize the US never signed the agreement to allow the International Criminal Court to prosecute Americans for war crimes right? Neither did Israel, Russia, China, or India.

          The Geneva convention is essentially a guidebook at this point, it has no enforcement mechanism against anybody that matters in the current military engagements happening in the world.
