The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

Not like it would be justified if they were drug smugglers, but I think it hasn't gotten enough focus that a boat with 11 people onboard heading from Venezuela to Trinidad was almost certainly migrants. These were probably, at least for some of them, people fleeing Maduro. That's who they murdered.

Himes: They posed zero threat to anyone in the region, and we killed them.
Himes: It was exceedingly hard to watch. Even if you stipulate that it is a war, there is a very specific prohibition against killing individuals who have been removed from the fight. And there is no question that these individuals were removed from the fight.

Second strike wasn't about removing combatants, it was about removing witnesses abd evidence.
But then the Hegseth dolts start showing off their own incriminating video. You can't dream up that level of stupid.

By invading Ukraine in 2014, Russia violated the Agreement on Friendship/Cooperation/Partnership 1997
The first major ceasefire agreement, signed on 5/9/2014 in Minsk, was broken within hours of being signed.
This prompted the second attempted truce, known as Minsk-2, but it was even shorter.

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it?
Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on “suspected” drug boats in the Caribbean.
He served for 37 years.
