  This isn't March Madness. We're not here to do brackets. We all know who and what BO was. Trying to diminish that by hiding behind an oversimplification such as "Well, he's no Vlad" is anti-history. There's no need for that.

    So you can't and won't answer my question then. Obama was no Putin. Shades of gray exist. Not every bad act is as bad as another.

      I can answer you question. But it's off-topic and out of scope so I'm not going to entertain its laziness. You're caught up in the emotions of the moment. That's of no interest to me. The scope is war criminals. Full stop. At no point did I say one is better or worse than another. That's not how it works. Death is death. The type of cancer that does it is irrelevant.

  There is no "explicit purpose of conquest". At no point Russia claimed that, they only said they want NATO far away from their borders. That is an assumption you're making, the same way I can claim USA/UK invaded Libya to create ISIS Obama destroyed Libyan lives, that still live worse today than before the invasion Russia will destroy Ukrainian lives They both claimed they did invade it for peace Which invader is a war criminal is not conditional on how advanced the country is
