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”
Hegseth is military trained & he's no fool:

Peter the drunk godsucking candy-handed poncy TV Princeton bimbo is a study in "failing upwards when you're white". Punkass Peter is a tap-out.
The main thing about Pete "K*ll-All-Muslims" Hegseth is that he highly likely has malignant narcissism (psychopathy).
Psychopathic brain structure is bereft of empathy, &, hence, of remorse or conscience.
Power is all that matters to psychopaths. They live for the regular squirts of adrenalin that tell them they're still alive.
While not all psychopaths do harm, Pete's a doozy (see his w'pedia page).
Traits 👇
I am absolutely uninterested in the psychology of nazis. There are too many to claim they're textbook cases of any kind anymore, and not just the sick human monsters that half of us are naturally. Fuck understanding.
Peter the Drunk doesn't have any right to my compassion or consideration.
Geraldo, Phil, and Jerry and the rest shilled for the dirty nazis to America on daytime TV, selling "both sides" when there is only always 1. Be good, or be gone.
Re "I'm absolutely uninterested in the psychology of nazis"
Yes i see that. Which may be why you mistakenly imagine that to explain is to condone.
As if to explain how cancer works is somehow to "condone" it.
As if we can work out how to prevent or stop something without understanding how it functions.
Yes, so let's keep enabling, funding, voting for the periodic resurrection of Nazism because "knowing your enemy is condoning it." Good thinking 🤷♀️
There was no hint of my imagining or implying that, Dr. Jones. (ha. fuck yeah, i got to say that).
Unless you're saying daytime TV is academia and my jab against the pop-psychologizing of nazis by jackass ratings hounds hit the entire foundation of grey-mattery.
Whatever trigger of guilt that may've pinged, sorry.
What I will clarify as my point, is, I don't need tomes about Peter the Drunk in order to define him as the enemy he wants me to accept him to be. That's it. Blow.
"Fuck understanding. Peter the Drunk doesn't have any right to my compassion or consideration."
And you interpreted that as meaning to me that it's all useless and enabling?
More Sarah Bernhardt than Dr. Jones. Lots of gas lights there, too. 😄
Nazism isn't a goddamn mental condition.
Fascism isn't a defect. It's the default.
@GGMcBG @DrALJONES 100% agree with "Nazism isn't a goddamn mental condition.
Fascism isn't a defect. It's the default."
Every trait that people love to call narcissism or psychopathy can boil down very easily into white supremacy and patriarchy. Pretty much every white person in the US is somewhere on that spectrum, but the less power someone has the less their harmful beliefs are other people's problem. The regime is not full of mentally ill people, it's full of powerful white supremacists.
