“Nice people made the best Nazis..

They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than “politics.”

They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away.

You know who weren’t nice people?

Resisters.”

Using a $200000 hellfire missile to clean up the Caribean Sea seems a bit expensive.

That money would have been better spent cleaning up their bullsh!t.

Someone gave the order to launch a second $200000 hellfire missile to murder 2 shipwrecked civilian survivors.

I don't care who is initially court marshalled, Hesgeth or the drone operator.

Charged with murder or wasting money.

A courtmarshall would get the truth out there with no more bulsh!t.

Heinz-Wilhelm Eck was a German U-boat commander of the Second World War who was tried, convicted, condemned and executed after the war for ordering his crew to shoot the survivors of a Greek merchantman sunk by U-852.

Murdering shipwrecked survivors is a despicable crime punishable by death.

1/2

Hesgeth boasts that he watch these murders unfold live on TV. (See below in 2/2)

He was thus ideally placed to halt the murder of the shipwrecked.

IF he did not give the order, he was still complicit in these acts of murder.

Silence gives consent.

US military law states one MUST disobey illegal orders.

It gives an example of murdering the shipwrecked.

It warns of the penalty of death specifically for this crime.

Those giving these orders are guilty under this law.

Those complicit in these acts or following these orders are also guilty.

Making Adm. Bradley the fall guy in the Administration’s “Protect Pete” campaign is disgraceful & destructive. It signals to military professionals down the ranks they’ll be thrown under the bus for lawbreaking by Hegseth & other political leaders.

This is the military law in the US regarding murder of civilians and murder of those incapacitated by wounds.

The death penalty is the greatest punishment for these crimes.

During the 2 September operation a first missile strike left two survivors clinging on to the wreck.

Adm Frank Bradley, head of Special Operations Command, ordered a second strike to kill the two survivors to comply with Hegseth’s orders.

Thus: Bradley and Hegseth clearly committed war crimes.

Hesgeth says he knew nothing of the illegal double tap killing of survivors in an operation off Venezuela.

BUT

Tells us he watched it live and participated.

Which is the lie?

Trump and his new Christian religion now back Putin as a close friend.

They gave him the warmest of welcomes in Alaska.

In his visit to Moscow, will the Pope do the same?
