Interview: "No Stupid Rules of Engagement” Pete Hegseth
Hegseth has "halted efforts to limit civilian deaths. People who were tracking civilian casualties have been reassigned to other jobs."
Conversations about, “What could this result in for us in terms of international law or war crimes under U.S. law?” aren’t happening.
"That puts civilians abroad at much greater risk & puts US service members at risk of being implicated in possible war crimes."

Iranian authorities say the U.S. and Israel killed more than 1,300 civilians, striking over 10,000 civilian sites during the first 12 days of the war. This comes as Israel escalates attacks on Lebanon, killing at least 570 since the war began and displacing nearly 800,000 people. As President Trump dodges questions on how long the war will continue, reporting by Akbar Shahid Ahmed, senior diplomatic correspondent for HuffPost, has revealed that “a lot of the experts on international law, the laws of war, international humanitarian law have quietly been leaving the Trump administration.”
“there is great care on the part of many mainstream liberals to focus on the destructive potential of #Trump as a singular entity, a freak storm somehow returned to shore, rather than a symptom of an entirely different climate [wherein millions of Americans want other people unlike them to suffer without end].
The chasm between the thing one pretends to be and the thing one really is — it’s not an exclusively Republican phenomenon.”
