      Committing war crimes in order to start a war that is being justified by blaming drugs WHILE Trump pardons a guy convicted of smuggling drugs.

      The lawlessness really has no limit.

      So Pete’s an admiral now? Or are they changing their story every few minutes after they get a new legal opinion on just how much shit they’re actually in?

      Its a bold strategy Cotton, lets see if it…

      Yeah he’s going to get away with it. Republicans aren’t going to do anything, or actively going to stop anything from happening to him.

      Proof they are narco-terrorists please…. I’m here for the fallout from this and can’t wait to see the scramble.

      Remember, this act was so illegal, it’s literally listed as THE EXAMPLE of a “clearly illegal order”

      DoD Law of War Manual:

      18.3.2.1 Clearly Illegal Orders to Commit Law of War Violations. The
      requirement to refuse to comply with orders to commit law of war violations applies to orders to
      perform conduct that is clearly illegal or orders that the subordinate knows, in fact, are illegal. For example, orders to fire upon the shipwrecked would be clearly illegal.

      Next: patel. Later: rfk. Soon or later: bondi. plausible: rubio.

      We talk about a safari bus here.

      Shut this clown DOWN.

      Him and KashApp are going to be made the sacrificial lambs.

      This is a different interpretation of what the WH said. The NY Times says the WH is claiming Hegseth authorized the lethal strike but was not contacted about the survivors on the boat.

      The decision for the second strike was made by the Special Operations Commander, according to the WH. That’s who Pete is throwing under the bus.

      So my guess is military brass were threatening one giant fucking response if they didn’t take back the admiral comment.

      This is a good day.

      You knew this was coming when Trump said to the press he didn’t know anything about it.

      That’s the tell.

      Are we all forgetting that Trump came right out and stated this in public?

      “I don’t think we’re necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war. I think we’re just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We’re going to kill them. They’re going to be, like, dead,” Trump said

      Gearing up to throw Hegeseth under the bus and possible court martials for the officers that carried it out… „Just following orders“ is, historically speaking, not a good defense.

      Senator Kelly completely vindicated! (not that there was ever anything wrong with reminding people about their oaths in the first place)

    28. Jimbo415650 on

      Admiral knows a legal order from an illegal one. Both got some explaining to do and convince the world that they are not war criminals.

    31. justbecauseyoumademe on

      shooting shipwrecked survivors is the literal textbook definition of an illegal order.

      *DoD Law of War Manual Section* [*18.3.2.1*](http://18.3.2.1)

      The requirement to refuse to comply with orders to commit law of war violations applies to orders to perform conduct that is clearly illegal or orders that the subordinate knows, in fact, are illegal. **For example, orders to fire upon the shipwrecked would be clearly illegal.**
