No, but he's not an enemy. Russia hasn't attacked the US or a direct ally in over a century. There are over 200+ sovereign nations in this world and we don't have a fight with any of them. Countries are free to conduct their own affairs.
People, places, and things turning radioactive don't count ehh.

Capital punishment blows your mind?
I thought my statement was very clear. Yes, the government being able to kill its own citizens is insane. But I guess I prefer a smaller government than you.

The government doesn't unilaterally kill citizens with the death penalty.
But lol at you trying to spin this as "I favor small government."

Biden was bragging about killing terrorists with a drone strike but later it was revealed it was a volunteer and some children.

I don’t think it’s celebrated, at least not by the state. We don’t have the USArmy band playing neck before they flip the switch
The requirements of lawful state homicide differ for foreign combatitants. Civilians violating laws have due process requirements and in many states extra requirements for the death penalty. Foreign Policy magazine has a good article talking about the latter at LINK

While you're digging that hole, look up what unilaterally means.
