Rick Wilson - War, Criminals, and War Criminals

There is a point in any declining republic where foreign and domestic policy stops looking like strategy and starts looking like a racket. We are well past that point.

Look at the map.

In one corner, Pete Hegseth is turning the Caribbean into his own personal live-fire video game, with U.S. drones directed by SEAL Team Six blowing up supposed “drug boats” off Venezuela. (Pete, get Battlefield 6; it is the best in the series in a long time and might help you sublimate some of that rage.) While no one in the Pentagon can quite explain who we are killing or why with any detail, we are doing it with vigor.

Human rights lawyers, military JAGs, and even the Republican chairmen of the House and Senate Armed Services Committees are saying “war crimes” in their out-loud voices concerning a reported second strike that targeted survivors in the water after one boat was hit by a drone, something the Washington Post says Hegseth ordered and that he spent the weekend posting cartoon social media memes boasting about.
