@BrianJopek I think the senior military staff, whose who actually understand what is being said and done, need to realise that if the US commits war crimes, as their president is promising, then they will also be held culpable. They will also be held responsible for their own actions.

Trump will never be, of course. So they should protect themselves. And refuse to commit the atrocities that their boss wants them to.
