Well , if he's still questioning it , you can assure him that Hegseth did not...Exactly, and in my post #772 I asked jake snarkey if he still believes that Hegseth
ordered an illegal order.
Indeed.

Facts? A burning upside down boat, no electronics…. Two injured survivors?Now that the facts are in, are you feeling stupid again?
Because they couldn't have a sat phone in a floating dry bag. That is how I keep my phone when I go out on the boat.The boat was upside down, capsized. The boat was on fire. The boat was In the ocean, out of sight of land.
Sorry, there was zero chance they would be calling anyone because the electronics on the boat would be dead, or burnt. And there is no way they were going to un capsize a boat of that size. Have you ever been on a boat before? Have you ever been in the ocean before?
A few years ago, I was out on a boat about that size, a little smaller, One of the two engines stopped working, the boat was not on fire, the boat was not upside down. After about an hour of trying, we were able to reach a tow company. It took them about three hours to come get us, then we were towed in and reached land nine hours after the motor stopped working.
We were very lucky to have accomplished that.



By violating the rules of war and military code of conduct
U.S. Southern Command

On Dec. 4, at the direction of
@SecWar
Pete Hegseth, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel in international waters operated by a Designated Terrorist Organization. Intelligence confirmed that the vessel was carrying illicit narcotics and transiting along a known narco-trafficking route in the Eastern Pacific. Four male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel were killed.
Hooah!
So Trump has had his people break the rules of the Geneva Convention and now if another country sinks or takes any of our Military personal prisoner they don't have to go by it either and could just out right kill them.The definitive answer is "no."
The answers are available to anyone and everyone in the Geneva Conventions.
Second Geneva Convention (1949)
*Article 12:
“Members of the armed forces and other persons mentioned in Article 13, who are wounded or sick, as well as shipwrecked at sea, shall be respected and protected in all circumstances. They shall be treated humanely and cared for by the Party to the conflict in whose power they may be, without any adverse distinction founded on sex, race, nationality, religion, political opinions, or any other similar criteria. Any attempts upon their lives, or violence to their persons, shall be strictly prohibited; in particular, they shall not be murdered or exterminated, subjected to torture or biological experiments; they shall not wilfully be left without medical assistance and care, nor shall conditions be created to cause their death.”
*Article 13 (defines who is covered):
“The present Convention shall apply to the wounded, sick and shipwrecked members of armed forces at sea, as well as to members of the crews of the merchant marine and the crews of civil aircraft of the Parties to the conflict, who do not benefit by more favourable treatment under any other provisions of international law.”
I went out into the Atlantic ocean with two engines, one died. Read up on what I said.Because they couldn't have a sat phone in a floating dry bag.
What? Why didn't you limp home with your other running engine?
I never go out in the Gulf of America in a boat with only one engine.

A lie.By violating the rules of war and military code of conduct
It’s the Gulf of America, sucker.I went out into the Atlantic ocean with two engines, one died. Read up on what I said.
The Gulf of Mexico is very calm, and I have often been out with only 1 engine… no issues. Guess I’m brave.
The military is killing Narco-terrorists.So Trump has had his people break the rules of the Geneva Convention and now if another country sinks or takes any of our Military personal prisoner they don't have to go by it either and could just out right kill them.
Trump and his people may have just put all our military people in jeopardy of being killed if they are ever captured .
The Geneva Convention way put in place and agreed to so things like this would not happen.
Perhaps you better check up on that.Facts? A burning upside down boat, no electronics…. Two injured survivors?
They had a JAG lawyer analyze the situation before the second strike.By violating the rules of war and military code of conduct
AND breaking the Geneva Convention.The military is killing Narco-terrorists.
You should thank them.
It appears that the receptionist is worried that his supply may be interrupted.Who hates that lives are being saved? Give names.
You get no vote.AND breaking the Geneva Convention.
So now OUR military people can be captured and KILLED .
