6. Meanwhile, free the major drug kingpins that share your far right ideology.
Trump/Hegseth instruction manual:
1. Invent a war where none exists.
2. Kill people by blowing up boats that aren’t attacking you.
3. Violate your own rules of war.
4. Call in the lawyers to explain why the clear violations are not really violations.
5. Blame it on “the fog of war.”

The notion that the shipwrecked calling for help is a "hostile act" b/c it might enable salvage of part of the cargo (supposedly a military objective) strikes me as absurd. And would risk gutting the protection of the shipwrecked.

This really lays bare how absurd the manufactured war theory is:
A shipwrecked survivor of a Hellfire missile strike on his small burning vessel is supposed to do... what, exactly, to show he is not "in the fight"?
When there is no war, applying the law of war is an exercise in absurdity.

4/ What about explanation that calling to be rescued might also allow cartel to retrieve some cocaine?
It's legally ludicrous to claim (as Hegseth et al would need to argue) that such conduct equals a failure to "cease all active combat activity."

3/ First it's absurd on its face that communicating to be RESCUED is a hostile act.
That's the definition of being shipwrecked and helpless.
The whole point of a legal prohibition on killing people who are shipwrecked is that they must be rescued or left to be rescued instead.
