After the initial drone blast killing all but 2 on a fishing boat, Hegseth directs our military to go back and kill the survivors clinging to wreckage.
This is no different than the MASSACRE AT MALMEDY by Germans killing unarmed US Prisoners of War.
If this isn't a war crime NOTHING IS.

Offering the survivors of a missile strike no quarter and then ordering a second strike to finish them off puts Hegseth in deep, deep water. He gave an illegal order. This is either murder or a war crime. It doesn't matter what your title is, Secretary of Defense, or Fox Talk Show Host. It's murder.

This would be a war crime even if there were an actual war and these people were actual combatants, which there isn't and they weren't.

If somebody were really pissed off, they would have shot ICE. I can't be the person thinking the shooting was a false flag to distract from Epstein and to justify sending troops to DC.

This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).
It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.
