It doesn't matter whether you personally think it's okay. There are rules here...

And those rules very clearly define what is and what is not allowed to be posted. Stating that a murderous war criminal should be executed for his brutality is not a threat. Again, neither by definition nor intent. It is a statement of support. You want to post my responses in public? Don't forget this one.

It might not be a threat but it sure is in poor taste, IMO.
