| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [NewsFrontInfo] Adviser to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, Anton Gerashchenko, called for reprisals against civilians in the country who collaborated with the Russian military in the Kiev region, he announced this on social networks. The Ukrainian official said that such reprisals should be started against those residents of the Kiev region who may be suspected of collaborating with the participants in the special operation. He stressed that it is imperative to find and punish everyone who has somehow interacted with our soldiers, Readovka reports. It is important to note that, according to Gerashchenko, neo-Nazis and members of the Bandera gangs can classify all Ukrainians as “collaborators”, who could only receive humanitarian aid from the hands of the Russian military in order not to starve to death. After such statements, residents of Ukraine in all regions are at risk. |

| #8 Yeah, the Dutch know all about war crimes. They're so good at them that unlike the Nazis, not a single one of them dangled from the hangman's noose. Even though they richly deserved it. Netherlands apologizes to Indonesia over war crimes Prime Minister Mark Rutte has apologized to Indonesia after a study found that the Dutch army used extreme violence, including against civilians, during the archipelago nation's war of independence. The study, which took more than four years to conclude, said sources showed that atrocities in the then Dutch East Indies were committed in a systematic way. It found "that the use of extreme violence by the Dutch armed forces was not only widespread, but often deliberate, too." "It was condoned at every level: political, military and legal." "The research shows that the vast majority of those who bore responsibility on the Dutch side — politicians, officers, civil servants, judges and others — had or could have had knowledge of the systematic use of extreme violence," the researchers said. "There was a collective willingness to condone, justify and conceal it, and to let it go unpunished. All of this happened with a view to the higher goal: That of winning the war," they said. The review cited "extrajudicial executions, ill-treatment and torture, detention under inhumane conditions, the torching of houses and villages, the theft and destruction of property and food supplies, disproportionate air raids and artillery shelling, and what were often random mass arrests and mass internment." Gosh, sounds just like what the Russians are being accused of, only we have hard proof and a confession. What was that about reprisals against civilians being approved by the Geneva convention again? |

| #6 define "collaboration": Aid and comfort is one thing. Keeping your head down and not pissing off the guys with guns when you don't have one is another. |

| #2 Huh. Aren't reprisals against civilians a war crime? Geneva Convention allows occupying military to take reprisals for civilian attacks. |

| #1 Huh. Aren't reprisals against civilians a war crime? I guess it depends on who does it. Like when Obama murdered children with drones it wasn't a war crime. |
