He has, um, ordered our troops to commit war crimes the bombing of the girls school in manab was a horrific war crime and the people responsible for that bombing should be tried so i absolutely do come from it from a 100 just a moral standpoint but i actually don't need you to do that i i I don't care and I don't shame
Do you come from a religious, I mean, the moral, is it linked with your religion? Of
