#KeirStarmerWarCriminal is allied to US Secretary of War, #PeteHegseth, who openly said there'll be 'No stupid #RulesOfEngagement', 'No #democracy building exercise', & that the only ones who need to be worried right now are 'The #Iranians who think they’re going to live'."

#TheSenateSplit 50–50, VP, #JDVance, casted the tie-breaking #vote. As defence secretary #PeteHegseth has vowed to “UNLEASH OVERWHELMING and PUNISHING VIOLENCE ” on ENEMIES: " #KillAllMuslims" & #promised to #dispense w #STUPID #RulesOfEngagement” – RULES DESIGNED TO RESTRICT ATTACKS ON CIVILIANS!!!
It’s to provoke a terrorism response that enables marshal law and lockdown for Trump to steal the midterms and stay in power indefinitely. #iran #rulesofengagement #fucktrump

The US & Israel strike desalination plants and say so what.
This is brutal escalation & will result on retaliatory strikes on desalination plants across the region! So what????
You are about to make the entire Middle East uninhabitable!!!!

#Trump is a fucking idiot!! #Iran will not unconditionally surrender.
Trump says we’re at war, his dick sucking speaker of the house disagrees.
When you bomb a nation because you had a feeling they might attack, it’s starting an illegal war!

2/ Why do MAGA-GOPers worry so much about calling it a war? I mean, Whiskey Pete renamed his department the Dept of War.
Maybe they're just being "politically correct." It's okay to do that, apparently, unless you're, you know, ON THE BATTLEFIELD. #RulesOfEngagement
Nope! We don’t! ❌
Well, THEY don’t! 🤦🏽♂️

I just heard #PeteHegseth say,
“NO stupid #RulesOfEngagement (❓),
NO #NationBuilding quagmire (swamp)(❓),
NO democracy building exercises(❓),
NO #PoliticallyCorrect WARS (❓);
we fight to win…”
At this point in history we NEED each one of those things‼️
Feel like he refers to the evil Iranians like he refers to the majority of Americans. No difference in his mind.

Genocide under international law requires intent to destroy a protected group in whole or in part. That intent is the defining legal element. Without it, the charge collapses. When genocide becomes a label applied whenever civilian casualties are high, the term loses meaning, and law becomes a weapon rather than a restraint. There has been no genocide in Gaza. Israel has not intentionally targeted civilians. Its intent has been to return hostages, dismantle Hamas as a military and governing organization following the Oct. 7 mass casualty attack, and do so while sustaining civilian life under extraordinarily difficult combat conditions. Intent matters. Context matters. Law matters. Israel has taken more measures to reduce civilian harm than any military in history operating in dense urban terrain against an enemy deliberately embedded among civilians. These measures include mass warnings before strikes, evacuation corridors coordinated at scale, daily humanitarian pauses, precision targeting based on layered intelligence, and operational restraints that deliberately increase risk to its own soldiers to reduce harm to civilians. No other military facing an enemy that systematically hides among the population has attempted civilian harm mitigation at this scale, over this duration, while under constant attack.
Hamas, by contrast, has openly declared and operationalized a strategy of using civilians as shields. It has tortured, sexually abused, starved, and murdered hostages. It has threatened civilians who attempt to leave combat zones or accept unauthorized aid. All of this constitutes war crimes. When international discourse erases this distinction and instead accuses the defender of genocide, it does not protect civilians. It rewards the most cynical and unlawful tactics in modern warfare. The genocide accusation collapses further when measured against observable reality rather than slogans. Israel has conducted this war while facilitating a scale of humanitarian assistance, medical access, vaccination campaigns, and civilian protection measures unprecedented in a conflict where the defending force does not control the territory and the enemy does. Aid, food, water, fuel, medical supplies, and vaccines have entered Gaza throughout the war, even as Hamas retained territorial control and continued fighting. Israel coordinated humanitarian corridors, medical evacuations, and pauses in combat while under attack. No historical case of genocide includes a state feeding, vaccinating, providing medical care to, and sustaining the civilian population of the territory in which it is supposedly committing extermination.
The genocide slur is not just for Jews: Judging Israel’s wartime behavior through epithets, TikTok clips, and faulty balance sheets poses a direct danger to American lives www.tabletmag.com/sections/isr... By John Spencer #genocide #RulesOfEngagement #InternationalLaw #antisemitism

#Hegseth says "rules of engagement" are stupid!
#ALARM!
He's so over his head ignorant & stupid. #RulesOfEngagement created for fairness and to protect #Military personnel, not to give permission to rouge armies to execute others at will b/c they can.
This guy has to go, and I mean right NOW.
GI Killseth needs to be made a shining example of what happens to those who issue illegal orders and trample on our Constitution and the safety of our troops.
