That seems fair, Russia has been bombing them for a while so it’s opened itself to retaliation.
I don't buy that its fair. What if they hit a mother and child. Sure objectively that seems a similar cost. But morally? Not all Russians support the war and even if they did...Was it their decision or their governments'?
Morally I’d much rather no one gets bombed, but that doesn’t take into account the mothers, children and other innocent people getting bombed in Ukraine.
If Russian don’t support it they should overthrow their government, as they are the only ones with the option of leaving the territories they invaded. But what I see is even Russian expats who are no longer under socialist regime supporting the war.
So I say bomb them and make them feel the pain so that they are forced to feel what it’s like to be in war. However don’t stoop to the same level as Russia and attack schools, hospitals and maternity wards. Be better than them.
