"NOOO STOP YOU'RE COMMITTING A WAR CRIME!!"
"NOOO STOP YOU'RE COMMITTING A WAR CRIME!!"
The war crime is such a retarded concept.
>Killing this man is okay, but killing this one is not
Sounds logical to me.
It's not a war crime if you win the war
>OMG LIKE, WAR HAS RULES
It's not logical, it's arbitrary as fuck.
>Attacking Poland is evil
>Attacking Finland is XAXAXAXAXA
>Bombing London is an evil act
>Bombing Dresden is lol who cares
>Killing Serbs is okay
>Killing Albanians is NATObombed
It's not a war crime if there's no one left to complain!
This
Based
>Bombing London is an evil act
>Bombing Dresden is lol who cares
Dresden got much more attention than London desu. From legal perspective neither were prosecuted as warcrimes for reasons obvious.
>>Killing Serbs is okay
It is tho
>start shit
>get hit
wow what a difficult concept to grasp. I don't think anyone's excusing the soviet invasion of finland or poland in 1939.
It's certainly applied in an arbitrary way a lot of the time, but it's not inherently an arbitrary concept. Provided that the world is populated with many nations which deserve sovereignty and violence is necessary to maintain sovereignty, it is useful to distinguish between violence which protects sovereignty and violence which destroys sovereignty, or violence which is in excess of what is necessary to protect sovereignty. Invading Finland was criminal in my opinion, but invading Poland with an explicit plan of ethnic cleansing was clearly a worse war crime.
>Dresden got much more attention than London
You wot? Brits can't walk 2 steps without telling how their tiny empire stood against the mighty Germans.
Poland sovereignty was a crime against Germany's sovereignty, therefore the attack on Poland was to defend Germany's sovereignty.
Some russians and tankies do
>Brits can't walk 2 steps without telling how their tiny empire stood against the mighty Germans.
That's called "bragging about military achievement" and it's entirely irrelevant to this discussion.
Except it wasn't
Göring was sentenced to death. Harris got decoration.
>Inb4 Göring was sentenced because of the Holocaust
Americans are really ignorant people.
You must understand how absurd your position sounds to someone who isn't already sympathetic to it, right?
>2% of the population spoke German as a first language
>most of the land has never been controlled by a German nation-state
I'm assuming you're just spouting Nazi propaganda. I strongly urge you to reconsider where you get your information
How was Poland's sovereignty a crime against Germany's?
Don't bother with him
In our army the saying is "its only a crime if you get caught"
>Be Germany
>Has lands in the east
>Anglos and French gave that land to Poland
>20 years passes
>'How dare you? We gave that to Poland! You have no right to take it back!'
Poland is a stain on the map of Eastern Europe made by Anglo Imperialism. It's as legit as Iraq or Kuwait.
> Stop, they're on civilians
>legally acquire land
>illegally invade land
>surprised it's a warcrime
>user YOU SICK FUCK, THERE WERE PEOPLE IN THAT BUILDING
based
>Anglos decide what is legal and what is illegal
>a nation state comprised mainly by a large, autocthonous people with a distinct language and culture
"Imperialism" is al*manns trying to conquer a region and clear it of indigenes for settlement.
that's why you have to kill even your own civilians?
It's only right being that we're the only moral race on this Earth.
Shame this film had such a shit story.
>Interwar Poland
>A nation state
Pick one and only one
>"Imperialism" is al*manns trying to conquer a region and clear it of indigenes for settlement
Kinda reminds of something called Manifest Destiny. Remind me how many Americans were tried for that?
this.
So war crimes are arbitrary as fuck and my point still stands. Thank you, Nigel.
There are no such things as war crimes
Why are Argentines so asshurt about some tiny archipelago with a population of 3,000 that's a thousand miles from anywhere? Do they have weapons they want to test? Can't they do that in Patagonia or somewhere?
>hey come on guys, I know you're fighting for your very survival but lets not be too mean about it :p
war crimes are unironically fucking retarded
>lmao just let me invade whatever i want dude
this "soyjack is unreasonable" thread got hijacked by retards arguing about war crimes
Americans could never understand the concept of rightful clay. When the Mexicans take back California you will understand.
>noo, not my soyboy thread!
good
wojacks are cancerous enough and should be contained into /s4s/ and /b/
I'd rather laugh at people who think that war crimes are actually a good idea
>Promises and treaties shouldn't be taken seriously.
Want to commit war crimes? It's easy, don't sign the Geneva Convention
Who says I'm defending Manifest Destiny?
Afghanistan
Sudan
Somalia
Syria
Lybia
Vietnam
Yemen
Iraq
Latin America
Philippines
Etc
So you are agree with me that war crimes are arbitrary?
doesnt matter
>The USA can invade whatever it wants
>When Germany invades whatever it wants it's a war crime
>>most of the land has never been controlled by a German nation-state
Treaty of Brest-litovsk. Yes, it was legal.
The existence of a independent Poland meanwhile, was criminal and illegitime
>this island is near me therefore it's mine!
More like this Island belonged to me until Americans attacked it and then Brits colonized it, therefore I have the right to take it back.
Alta California had a whopping 38,000 people at the time of the Mexican Cession, much of which was Anglos and Native Americans who didn't give a fuck about Mexico.
not land grabs
It never belonged to Argentina. It belonged to Spain
Still Chicanos will outbreed you.
>Creating a puppet government that serves the US interests is somehow better than annexing them fair and square
Not oficially.
Most of the colonies were proctetorades anyways, so no land grabs
And Argentina is the legal successor of the Spanish colony of La Plata. Also it had an Argentine governor.
it's much better actually
Mate the British army only cares about results, t.soldier. We are literally told in training "Its only a crime if you get caught" during our lesson on how to "humanly" set up white phosphorus "decoys".
>Argentina is the legal successor of the Spanish colony of La Plata
This is a meme that they used to justify the war. A lie of course.
Their rights came from the spanish King, when they abandoned him they lost all rights to anything.
It's much worse in fact.
You don't spend your own money to build the local infrasctruture, just profit from the public money of poorer countries.
At least the colonial powers in Africa built wonders
Putting traitors in charge of a country and trying to brainwash the population to serve their American overlords willingly is better than straight out occupying them. Americans know no mercy.
But Vernet was loyal to Argentina.
What is it all about?
'AIN'T WAR HELL!'?
bruh they barely settled it, even if we grant you the spurious claim that it was legitimately there's at some point, it'd be as stupid as saying the moon belongs to the americans, or that north america belongs to scandis, or australia to holland, etc. etc.
argies are the only ones retarded enough to recognise this line of reasoning, and purely because it suits them
So what?
The people was never argentinian
so now morals matter to you?
>argies are the only ones retarded enough to recognise this line of reasoning, and purely because it suits them
Most of them actualy don't. It was a government move to create a wave of nationalism and hide the shit that they were doing.
>the existence of a thousand year old country with its own people, culture, language and nationalism is illegitimate because some germans want more clay
Morals are arbitrary.
you probably have a better understanding of SA opinions than i do, so fair enough. that being said though it isn't completely gone from their consciousness, the official government position is still that the islands are rightfully theirs, some of the politicians still jump up and down about the sinking of the belgrano being a 'war crime' to try and win votes
This is true.
it's really sad though.
dumb hypocrite
Remember when poles attacked Lithuania?
Poles can't complain.
Besides, nationality never made a state legitimate.
>deserve......
into the trash
Fuck off nazi if we bombed military targets instead of women and children the war never would have ended.
>poles attacking lithuania is bad
>people attacking poles is good
the only land that was taken had a very large polish population regardless
>yes i do prefer to bomb women, children and non-combatants because they are whores, annoying and soyboys respectively how did you know?
didn't an amerifat just go to jail for murdering isis fighters?
What on Earth does, then?
A SEAL is probably going to jail for war crimes for shooting civilians and executing a wounded fighter
>posts Vietnam war to go with that point
>90% of the population speaks English and 60% speak it exclusively
>actual Chicanos are only 30% of the population and most new Latin American immigrants are from other countries
>majority of Latin Americans call themselves "white"
>Asians are the fastest-growing group overall and come from several different countries
I can see California seceding, but I don't think it would join Mexico.

>imagine losing a war to afghanistan
Look who are talking about Afghan.
Last time I checked Afghanistan licks our boot
Time to time they are shooting at american soldiers.
Everyone shoots at us from time to time, hell we shoot ourselves from time to time its just how americans talk to each other and keep up foreign relations
>And shit on army for being bad.
And maybe also Good
Never was in Argentine possession
