“What’s that skippy?”
And here I was thinking I could have an actual adult conversation with one of you dolts. Well, I tried.
“He’s moving the goalposts again? That played no part in Moscow’s causus belli”
Young Master Smeg,the casus belli was halting the crimes of the illegitimate, Washington installed, fascist coup government. De-Nazification. A stated Kremlin goal.
“there has been no mention from Moscow that their intention is to remove the illegitimate government.”
Shall I say it more slowly so you can understand child? D-e-N-a-z-i-f-c-a-t-i-o-n.
“That would also be incompatible with annexation, since the point of the war would, Shirley”
Who’s Shirley?
“be to remove the installed government and allow a genuinely Ukrainian government to be formed, within it’s existing territory.”
The people of the regions exercised their right to self determination. Would you deny them that right?
“No ultimatums were issued”
Shows how little you know. The adults are talking here, the child’s table is over there. But since you’ve interrupted…The Kremlin most certainly did issue an ultimatum. It said that if its security concerns were not met it would take “military technical measures” in response.

“no attempt to go through the UN for a peace keeping force”
The Minsk 2 Agreements were done through the Security Council Young Master Smeg. There was an imminent invasion threat, the US, France and UK can all veto at the Security Council. Any time spent dithering there would have benefited the Nazis in their ethnic cleansing operation. They had their chance with Minsk 2 and blew it.
“That Putin only decided at the last minute only compounds the crime not exonerating him.”
It was done in response to an imminent Ukrainian invasion of Donbass and in accordance with pre-emptive war doctrine which is legal.
“Anyway, I don’t know if the Amnesty report on Russian action in occupied zones has landed here before, apologies if it has: but it’s worth a read, especially to see the faces of the victims of this war”
No, it isn’t. Amnesty is not an impartial human rights organisation but an arm of the empire’s regime change apparatus. There is copious evidence in support of this view which I have linked to previously on this thread.
