It is a crime to be sure, and happened during a war, but what specifically makes it a war crime?DAE le blowing up civilian infrastructure is not a war crime? >It was actually pretty funny to watch in real time. The first weeks every news agency and person on this website was convinced that it must have been russia, that russia did a horrible war crime by blowing up the pipeline etc etc. I remember being downvoted to hell for saying that this was obviously done by Ukraine. Then it became more and more obvious that it was indeed Ukraine and suddenly the narrative completely shifted and its actually a great thing that Ukraine blew up Nordstream, they helped us so much by making us more independent from RussiaWe were always at war with Eurasia!
>>538299145>It removed key Russian leverage too. With them closed but intact Russia could use gas supply as leverage to get Germany to abandon Ukraine. With it blown up, that option is gone as Russia can't offer to turn the gas supply on.>The only people who deserve to be arrested over nordstream are the fuckers who ordered it built.The real criminals are Germany's democratically elected government for acting in the interests of the German people. The rule of law should be determined by Ukrainian wannabe Nazi thugs. >Give him a 50 euro fine and 200 hours of community service and let’s call it quits.>Isn't blowing it up already enough community service?DAE think that blowing up civilian infrastructure is community service? Give him a heckin' medal and some Reddit gold!Deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure is generally considered a war crime under international law. The laws of armed conflict strictly prohibit targeting facilities that are essential for the survival and daily lives of civilians—such as power grids, hospitals, and water systems.
