Do Not Commit War Crimes for Anyone; citing superior orders to justify war crimes does not absolve the perpetrators of criminal liability.
The U.S. ruling establishment intends to sacrifice whatever remains of international humanitarian law and the foundations of human ethics and civilization to its insatiable appetite for war and slaughter.
A policy that calls for the destruction of bridges and power plants is manifestly unlawful and criminal. It constitutes reprisal and collective punishment—both of which are explicitly prohibited as war crimes under international humanitarian law and U.S. domestic law alike, specifically under 18 U.S.C. § 2441 (the War Crimes Act). There is no statute of limitations for these offenses. The Uniform Code of Military Justice and the Department of Defense Law of War Manual make it unequivocally clear that service members have both a legal and moral duty to refuse manifestly unlawful orders.
Iran stands firm and resolute against lawlessness and the flouting of the law.
This meme is so true because US didn't read the MoU that Trump signed. Point 5 says that Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz.
Yesterday, a reporter asked why Marco Rubio why the US signed the MoU when Point 5 clearly says that Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz. Rubio says that he doesn't interpret the document to say that.
It very clearly says that the Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz to make arrangements for commercial vessels for 60 days. Also that Iran would consult Oman for future administration of the strait. The document does not say that the US can open the strait.
The US official position is that the US doesn't know how to read the MoU document that Trump signed in France and that's why the US is attacking Iran.
my vibes interpretation is that word came down from Big Boss to just agree to whatever terms were being offered, because the paper markets around energy were showing more signs of panic/seizing and literally every real human is like, "wtf is this war and why is everything +20% $$$??"
Big Boss is mercurial as hell and we know he doesn't read or digest information during any briefing, but it probably got through that the military/logistics people wanted a pause since the entire strategy they banked on is failing while ordnance is being expended faster than it can be made.
then a week later, they're back at it blowing shit up because they're idiots/impatient and it's all "no i never said that, just shut up about it and watch me do this. i can do whatever i want." it's pretty clear the creatures of administration is absolutely all-in on loyalism to the trump project. i'm sure all the MAGA endorsements winning the GOP primaries sent a signal to the worms that trump is the party and the party is trump. so they'll all willing to play Red Light, Green Light with the imperial economy to probably try and capitalize their personal piggy banks on the shocks as much as possible.
because, clearly, the only insulation from consequences in the U.S. is to have a shitload of money.
