Four Merlin V-12s with open stacks must make a helluva racket.

That would be a clear violation of the rules of war today and a crime against humanity. One can’t deprive civilians of water as that’s a basic necessity of life. Say shutting off the air supply would be analogous.

Don’t believe me?

I’m sure everyone is aware of the utter bloodbath and cruelty going on in the Russ-Ukr war today? Bombing of cities, killing of wounded on both sides..etc. Except Ukraine still allows its water to flow into Russia Crimea. Why? Because shutting it off would cause great hardship and suffering as well as mass deaths if the civilians living there. Ukrainians still have a soul.

That’s unlike Mad Bomber Harris and a few others in WW2.
