    Political violence shouldn’t be encouraged regardless of how dispicable the representative. Eventually we as a society will need to evolve past this sort of barbarism to solve our problems.

      This is not domestic political violence. This is one leader of a country threatening another and the other threatening back.

      In other words: let the two of them fight and end up both dying.

          Everyone who doesnt live in russia, murica and maybe China already knows that that is the path to hell.

          In other words, it is not surprising that the largest powers believe in “big fucks small”, but disparaging international law like I see all the time online because “big” doesn’t follow it is something that only benefits the “big” players and reduces everyone else into mere vassals.
