Yes, you are victim blaming by suggesting people defending themselves are to blame for war.

I'm trying to understand how they are blaming anyone? Please explain what exactly he said that you consider victim blaming.

Repeatedly asserting that the people defending themselves in war are just as responsible for the war as the people attacking them, therefore war isn't pointless. That's a ludricrous stance and puts blame on the victims for the war.
