This feels like 9/11 all over again and I mean that in the worst possible way.
The main difference between 9/11 and now, is that in 2023 we have global access to information, anayisis and 24/7 updates on what is going on, ok we did back then BUT in terms of the response we also ahve 24/7 updates, via multiple channels and from BOTH sides.
(Granted we also have 24/7 mis informatio)
As war crimes are being comitted they are not only being documented but documented online, blogs, articles, video, photos, these are being shared by others quickly too. We can see things happening in REAL TIME too. Which is more than can be said for the coverage of the 9/11 aftermath and subsequent illegal invasion of iraq and the invasion of Afghanistan.
There is zero escaping anything that happens, now matter how horiffic it is, that is bad for mental health I guess, bad for trying to cover things up (you can't) but is also good news for investigators who already have a good deal of evidence for war crimes on both sides.
If it ever comes to war crimes trials, no one is going to be able to fudge their way of out being in the dock in the Hague or where ever else.
