Ukraine being attacked is a grave situation, not just for the country and not just for NATO. The situation is far more dire. When people speak of a New World Order, they aren't talking about books written by the likes of Aldous Huxley or George Orwell. They are speaking of very potentially real-life events spiraling from the attack on Ukraine.

NATO's Article 5 has only been invoked once in its 72 years and that was the attacks on September 11, 2001. As of this morning, NATO has bound to protect itself after Russia attacked Ukraine and invoke it if needed. That's the very bad part. The grave part?

The United Nations security council has 15 members. 5 are permanent: China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Being a permanent member of the council doesn't mean they can commit war crimes according to the 1949 Geneva Convention.

Putin has done just that. If you click on the link, you will see listed many specific examples of what can be called a War Crime according to the United Nations. If he is not brought up on such charges as soon as humanly possible the gravity of the situation will be felt globally. We have history to look back on.

Specifically, the failure of the League of Nations. While the League never really found its footing, what little teeth is did have brought on its demise after Germany left. There is much to discuss about TLON, but Germany left to go and start a second war. I don't see Russia leaving the UN. I see Putin making a much larger calculated risk. He thinks he can get away with War Crimes. If he does, the United Nations and the Security Council are done.

It's that serious.
