Putin's war will change many things. There is a certain militaristic euphoria in the West. A🧵of pacifist reflection: 👇
1/10 Ukraine has been calling for weapons to defend itself. Overcoming initial reluctance, European countries are now offering them.

The casus belli was, "Iraq possessed Weapons of Mass Destruction and therefore the world needed saving". United Nations Security Council resolution 678, passed in Nov. 1990, allowed the use of force to end Iraq occupation of Kuwait and RESTORE INTERNATIONAL PEACE AND SECURITY.
A recent resolution 1441passed in Nov. 2002, required Iraq to allow inspections by UNMOVIC and IAEA and if there was further Iraqi breach reported to the Council, the matter would return to the Council for discussions as to next cause of action.
