Willie Peters (white phosphorus)cannot be used as an antipersonnel weapon, only as an incendiary device.....Was it always used that way?....No...............As a rule, only the losers are prosecuted for war
crimes, as the victors are the writers of the history.
There are intricate, crazy rules regarding warfare, a soldier better know them.....Always adhered to?...No

You cannot justify punishing Putin for doing the same thing Bush did unless you punish Bush first. Just admit our war criminals are above the law. Then we can talk.

Agreed.
Now what do you suppose should be done about it?
Nothing?
Then why so rabid after Putin?
Are war crimes only bad when the Russians do them?
Explain your double standard.
The US is not a state party to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, a 2002 treaty establishing the organization as “an independent permanent International Criminal Court in relationship with the United Nations system, with jurisdiction over the most serious crimes of concern to the international community as a whole.
President Trump denounced the ICC as part of an “unelected, unaccountable, global bureaucracy” with “no jurisdiction, no legitimacy and no authority” in a 2018 speech to the United Nations.
People in glass houses......
@metal-brain saidWe rarely agree....

We hung Japanese soldiers, in WWII, for 'waterboarding.'
We are holding people in Gitmo
that have never even been charged with a crime.
What?....Some 25 years now
It wasn't until the early 90's that The U.S. Govt.
paid each Japanese American 'survivor,' $20,000
for their forced incarceration during WWII.
