I'm happy to see the ICC target these individuals responsible for giving the orders and those who carried out war crimes against civilians. I'd like to see that doctrine applied unilaterally without exception.
Journalist target, laughing about killing him and his kids "shouldn't have brought your kids to a war zone"
Edit: "valid military targets" can be justified with just about any target. "The Ukrainians were using the apartment complex to stage assaults from" or "the building was filled with hostiles and their hostages, we decided not to waste Russian lives to clear the building"
It should all sound pretty familiar for people who lived through 2002-2012 especially. There was outlandish justifications used but were readily gobbled up by American civilians beating their chest for more bloodshed.
