Nuclear reactors become preferred targets during military conflict and, over the past three decades, have been repeatedly attacked during military air strikes, occupations, invasions and campaigns.

So yes, power plants are probable targets in war.

And in medieval times, there were dead bodies with diseases thrown over the wall with catapults. Maybe we should try this next on Russians? Or maybe bomb their power plants, if all is permitted?

Oh, and whatabout...

These whataboutisms are tiresome and off topic.

"whataboutism" is the stupidest way I see people avoid engaging actual debates .

> Putin's terrorist attacks against civilian infrastructure make no military sense.

(Points out that there's plenty of military precedent for this, aside from it being an obvious tactic)

> WHATABOUTISM!

maybe you can see how this behavior ruins discourse and guarantees you get dumber over time, but I doubt it.
