Hegseth & Bradley please explain
Why two men clinging to a boat nowhere near us were a threat
Why kill them?

Bradley says there was no kill order
When the first strike occurred how could two men hanging on in the ocean continue on with so called drug smuggling?
Is Bradley smelling pardon

Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announces another boat strike in response to a request/wish from Turning Point USA’s Andrew Kolvet.

Is well worth reading!

Senators just walked out of a classified briefing after viewing the second-strike video and their reactions say it all. Democrats look stunned. Republicans look rattled.

Pete Hague-seth seems to think the expression "The Fog of War" is literal. It is not. It is a metaphor, and one that would not excuse executing shipwrecked passengers you can clearly see on your video screen.

Congressman Adam Smith on @kaitlancollins.bsky.social says "fog of war" idea of Hegseth is "idiotic." It was a 48 minute video of 2 guys hanging off boat. Video was completely clear and visible when the second sortie (3 bombs) occurred.

Military leaders sat in an office for 42 minutes watching two men on the verge of drowning mid-ocean, clinging to wreckage, with no aid or ability to call for help. They sat there deciding whether to execute them, and then they did it.

Publishing all the other boat murder videos but refusing to release the one of the two survivors being killed is an admission they know exactly how bad it looks. There's no other distinction to draw there, no reason to publish the others while withholding that one.

Himes: "What worries me is what causes a man of real integrity & w/ a storied professional history like the admiral to order this strike? My guess is it has something to do w/ the secretary of defense who writes a book about how we need a lot less ethics and lawyers involved & a lot more lethality."

Shipwrecked and not using any communications equipment.

This is a crime against humanity. Everyone involved should be prosecuted for murdering stranded civilians in cold blood.

🚨🚨🚨This collapses the one 'argument' Hegseth had against it being a war crime:

"The two men killed as they floated holding onto their capsized boat .. DID NOT APPEAR TO HAVE RADIO OR OTHER COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES, the top military official overseeing the strike told lawmakers."

The two survivors of the Sept. 2 boat strike represented zero threat. They were not "still in the fight".

Someone asked me a good question on here. How do we stop ICE from violating our constitutional rights. We don't. Our local elected officials do that job. Our Governor, or Sheriffs our mayors, Police. They stop ICE. With force if necessary. That's how you stop ICE from pulling us out of our homes.
