Am I the only one to cringe every time the media calls the strike on survivors a "potential war crime"? [View all]
WE ARE NOT AT WAR.
The strike was nothing short of MURDER sanctioned by the State.
The media is shaping people's beliefs as to the moral justification of the strike simply by mischaracterizing it as having been done pursuant to war. Many superficial patriots are content with that justification.
Stop calling this a war crime. Perhaps Hegseth should have renamed the DoD the Department of Murder; that would be much more authentic.
