"Even if the U.S. were at war with the traffickers, an order to kill all the boat’s occupants if they were no longer able to fight 'would in essence be an order to show no quarter, which would be a war crime,' said Huntley, now director of the national security law program at Georgetown Law."
SCOOP: For the Trump admin's Sept. 2 strike targeting 11 men on a boat suspected of ferrying drugs, SecDef Hegseth gave an order, officials say, to kill them all. When two men were still alive, orders were given to strike again, finishing them off.

it’s funny because I am a massive nerd and have seen almost every SF/F show of the 90s, 00s, and 10s but if you say “Heroes Fandom” to me that means “Blizzard video game Heroes of the Storm fandom”
The erasure of the Heroes fandom thanks to the later seasons is so bad I saw a clickbait youtube title calling it a series "you've never seen".
Look, the show was MASSIVE (for a few months), everyone saw it and then collectively forgot it.
