Yeah I got that, I'm asking if you mean to say that Russia isn't killing civilians?

Why would anyone say that when everyone knows that it incontrovertibly is? Civilians always get killed in war, but scale, proportion, and intent matter. Noam Chomsky: Russia is fighting more humanely than the US did in Iraq

Then you don’t know the last eighty years of US atrocities worldwide, starting from the nuclear bombing of two heavily populated cities with no warning and ending with aiding & abetting an ongoing genocide in Palestine.
