I look fowards to seeing them suddenly decide it wasn't a war crime in six months when it comes out Ukraine did it. It's hilarious how fast people have memory holed Nordstream.

Do you have an actual retort? Nordstream was the responsibility of the USA (and Ukraine by extension). Both of these instances seem very similar, and given that one party has a history of doing exactly this sort of thing and then proceeding to blame the other party, I'm not sure how you can be so certain one way or the other.
This is not to mention that the linked article (from what I skimmed on the horrible website) doesn't even include any "evidence"; the vote was not based on facts or evidence turned up via investigation and was therefore premature and not founded in reality.
I don't really care what Ukraine does to defend its country mate. We in Europe were depending too much on Russian oil, which directly funds the Russian government. And look, it was a few rough months with increased gas prices but that made governments all over Europe realise they had to diversify.
Can't blame Ukraine for trying everything in its power to stop the warmongers. It's not like they're bombing civilians.
But sure compare that to flooding complete cities.
I'm not sure you understood my comment, or maybe I'm not understanding yours.

From where I stand, it seems they are more than happy to themselves be warmongers (that is, prolong the war), as long as they think they can win (or can convince those supporting them that they can win). But that's not the topic of that comment.
Russia was likely not responsible for flooding cities via the destruction of the dam. Considering how recent it is nobody can be certain, but things point not towards Russia but towards Ukraine.
I brought up the USA/Ukraine destruction of the Nordstream pipeline as evidence that they are perfectly willing to do this exact thing and lie about it^1.
By "prolong the war" you actually mean "defend their borders" but cool. How dare they not roll over, have they learned nothing about the goodwill and trustworthiness of the Russian government after Crimea in 2014?
Perhaps I should've said "invaders" instead of warmongers, I'll give you that.

Here's a quick overview and a more in-depth look at why it seems unlikely that it wasn't Ukraine's doing.
