Someone go through the GC and tell me how this isn't a war crime now? This seems a lot like napalm or WP.

Yes, Russia's worse, and we all know it. But when we're done fighting monsters we shouldn't have become them.

When you are fighting for your survival from an enemy who has stated their goal is genocide of your peoples, you can do whatever the fuck you want to defend yourself from them.

Becoming the monster would be turning around and invading a smaller country.

Yeah, Iraq should have gang raped more American POWs in self defense

gang raping American POWs didn't protect anyone. Actively killing the people who are currently trying to murder you with fire isn't meaningfully morally distinct than killing them with bullets.
