when have you seen a western country invaded to know how they would react in a situation like this? i'd bet on us acting worse. shyt we dropped nukes just to send a message. you don't get to invade a country and complain how they react. any and everything is on the table. don't start no shyt, it won't be no shyt.
I just gave you the example, France had every right to wipe Germany from the face of the Earth, as did Britain. They both beat back Germany (with US heavy lifting) and then later helped rebuild an integrate West Germany into the intl community of the free world. If what you say is true any and everything is on the table then why tf do we have war crimes tribunals and laws governing war for? Just cause they broke the law doesnt give us an excuse to do it
