    A war CAN’T be legal, because it actually abolishes any pretense of legality. Any “legal” war is just an attempt to make it seem legitimate, even (especially) if it is not.

      Given that ICJ and now even ICC are saying that there’s a reasonable case for a genocide, there’s zero basis for claiming this war is in any way legal in terms of international law.
