They don't care

They say these things because they don't care

They don't care if there are rules or anything

They don't care if they're warmongering, blood-spilling pieces of waste

They just don't care

A bunch of wild hogs who should be illegal-to-say sooner rather than later

Plugging Hegseth into war crimes to charge him to 100%.

[–] Wertheimer@hexbear.net 12 points 4 days ago

Yes, but we can all agree that the world would be a better place if Pete Hegseth were drawn and quartered, even if we forgot what that means.

The Iraqi people seem to have minded.

Yes but could you consider optics? Doing war crimes but saying otherwise is not as bad as doing war crimes and saying it was intended.

The law means something sweaty trump-kaneki

To be fair, even ignoring the illegality of it, if you're operating from the standpoint of keeping our troops safe (not that I am), this is a catastrophic message to broadcast because it means basically every single person you attack will fight to the death because surrender means death anyway.

Also, war crimes go both ways. They don't exist as a moral judgement. They exist as rules both sides agree to so war doesn't have to be worse than it already is. If you give no quarter, the cops aren't going to come and arrest you. Instead, the other side will give no quarter. You use chemical weapons? They can now use chemical weapons.

The one that will really fuck with the US if they do kill Iranian POWs is the Iranians have nothing stopping them sinking every American ship they come across and letting the survivors drown. That goes for civilian ships as well as military ships. And no one is going to risk their lives trying to move through the Gulf.

These ghouls think this posturing makes them look tough because they don't care about international law. That's a good way to find yourself in a "find out" phase.
