That is such a dumb question, I want to think for a while about a fitting answer.
Check out the UN figures for civilian deaths from the current conflict and take into account that most of them are killed in Donbas by the Ukrainian strikes.
The “heroic” story of Azov ukro Nazi regiment in Mariupol is very telling. The media portrays the story as new Alamo even though it is clear that the military took its own civilians hostage to prevent the destruction by the Russians.
That’s mightly heroic when the “defenders” are using their own people this way and the “invaders” are acting like the Russians are doing trying to save as much as possible.
