Rights groups have slammed Pete Hegseth for saying that “no quarter” will be shown to Iran.

"No quarter" includes executing people who've surrendered.

The mere announcement from a govt official can be a war crime.

Such threats are illegal under the Hague Convention & US domestic laws & military manuals.

Hegseth has publicly claimed he would not abide by “stupid rules of engagement”

@DrALJONES many of the same countries who created the interational law system was killing people in countries they colonized. International laws only existed on paper.

Yes, exactly. The UN was designed by the imperialists for the imperialists.
