Graham praises DeSantis for labeling Putin ‘a war criminal’
The Hill ^ | 03/23/23 | BY ALEXANDER BOLTON

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Thursday praised Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) for calling Russian President Vladimir Putin “a thug” and “a war criminal.”

“Governor @RonDeSantisFL description of Putin being a thug and a war criminal is spot on. What do you call a national leader who uses their army to kidnap children of a neighboring state? A War Criminal,” Graham tweeted.

>> Dresden . . .

That was my reaction too. When a nation goes to war, bad stuff happens. Over and over. War is about breaking things and killing people. Using labels like “war criminal” is silly because the leader of any nation that goes to war is then probably a war criminal.

So unless we can stop all wars, the label is not much more than a political act to rev up your population to keep supporting a war.

You are most welcome, sir. An image search on “Operation Babylift” is heartbreaking. Poor sweet wee ones. And I can’t help but feel for the medical staff and stewardesses on those flights as well. Can you imagine?

That was last week. The neocons reacted badly so he isn’t saying it anymore. Now he uses confrontational neocon rhetoric in the style of Lindsey Graham.

Yes. Has DeSantis called Dick Cheney a war criminal?

Do people killed in wars feel better if the soldiers who killed them weren’t labelled war criminals?

I would like DeSantis to clarify his position on the Ukraine War, the USA’s funding of Ukraine, and how he wants the war to end.

DeSantis needs to be asked if he stands by his statement that involvement in the Ukraine war is not in the USA’s interest.

My God. Lindsey is a parody of himself. He pops up smiling anytime a remotely warmongering comment gets made.
