"Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all



As two men clung to a stricken, burning ship targeted by SEAL Team 6, the Joint Special Operations commander followed the defense secretary’s order to leave no survivors.

The longer the U.S. surveillance aircraft followed the boat, the more confident intelligence analysts watching from command centers became that the 11 people on board were ferrying drugs.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave a spoken directive, according to two people with direct knowledge of the operation. “The order was to kill everybody,” one of them said.
A missile screamed off the Trinidad coast, striking the vessel and igniting a blaze from bow to stern. For minutes, commanders watched the boat burning on a live drone feed. As the smoke cleared, they got a jolt: Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck.

The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack — the opening salvo in the Trump administration’s war on suspected drug traffickers in the Western Hemisphere — ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, two people familiar with the matter said. The two men were blown apart in the water.
Hegseth’s order, which has not been previously reported, adds another dimension to the campaign against suspected drug traffickers.AI Icon

Some current and former U.S. officials and law-of-war experts have said that the Pentagon’s lethal campaign — which has killed more than 80 people to date — is unlawful and may expose those most directly involved to future prosecution."

I have to laugh at the few fools on the Right who want Trump to stop prosecuting Democrats. Do they really think that will stop the Democrats from using lawfare?

When the Seditious Six asked military and CIA officers to mutiny against Trump's commands, I said the Dems really wanted leaks to the media. This is what the leaks become- media reports and eventually Democrat lawfare, threat, and prosecutions against Republicans and military officers. Remember the FBI used media stories that they had planted as evidence to go after Trump.

He should be in The Hague. He’s a war criminal just like the Orange Doofus.

So what? You claimed Hegseth said "kill them all". He denies it. So prove he said it. You can't.

It's so enlightening that people who a week ago said that it's a crime deserving death to suggest that the military should defy illegal orders are perfectly ok with throwing military personnel under the bus in defense of a political appointee days later.

Yet again showing the moral bankruptcy of the MAGA movement.

As to your point. It's unlikely that he said this in private considering it's been reported. So now the house and Senate will investigate. You think those people who will have to answer will not all say the same thing. Namely that Hegseth ordered the second strike?

Let's put Barack's cabinet on trial for drone war crimes against Americans.

 

[struth]

Laws differ everywhere. Iran, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, China, North Korea, and Vietnam execute smugglers. Are those the countries we want to emulate?

They don’t differ here

No one got thrown under a bus dumbass.

Says the deviant crowd who lost 320,000 kids to sex traffickers, and supports drug runners.

I think whatever happened with Pete, won't matter, Trump will preemptively pardon his people like Biden did to prevent democrat lawfare.
Toxic Democrats are just looking for talking points since their 34% approval and unpopular policies can't be discussed.
It is unlikely that Pete said anything illegal since he wasn't in the local Caribbean chain of command, duh.

This is clearly a made up story in response to even the liberal media asking the Concern Troll Six what illegal orders of Trump's they were talking about and getting no answers.

 

[j-mac]

When that comes, MAGA will find another excuse. One second they’re proud of what happened and the next they’re denying it!

So? That’s politics…Welcome, put on your big boy pants.

As soon as the Dems get any power back in DC, they will go after the Trump admin for war crimes. It will be Russiagate 2.0.

Yep.

Sad part for them is that Trump will likely pass shortly after leaving office, leaving their lives empty and devoid of meaning.

Chalk up another instance where democrats side with foreigners and criminals instead of US citizens. It’s a pattern.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Nope! We are defending the:

The RULE OF LAW....you are defending lawlessness.

The Democrats are lawless
It is illegal to smuggle drugs into our country.
The Democrat Party's Drug Cartel partners have killed hundreds of thousands of Americans.

Dimwingers hate America. The evidence is overwhelming, and added to daily.

 

[Nostra]

They're actually violating the constitution

Lies.

 

[Nostra]

It’s the paper of record . You don’t have anything better.

Wow! The hacks have a slogan?

Don’t care, Simp. They are a joke.

 

[Nostra]

Holy **** Q-NUT.
What do you think " Your dear leader does it daily" MEAN?

IDIOT.

Somehow I knew a yes or no question would be beyond your cognitive abilities.

Did you think random whining and crying like a little ***** about Trump was a yes, or a no?

 

[Nostra]

The second shot proves it. Would a soldier do that without orders? They need to say “no”. America should stand behind them.

Your opinion isn’t proof, Simp.

Try again.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

If this is true, it is appalling. Is this who we are, murderers? We prosecuted Nazis who killed American POWs at the Battle of the Bulge and here we are doing the same thing? We used to be viewed as civilized by the rest of the world.

There is a difference between killing enemy military who mostly had no choice and killing criminals who are paid, specifically, to harm or kill others. Every one on those boats is a criminal and a participant in chain murder.

It is seldom I see such good news.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Trump stops drugs from coming in and democrats complain. Why? It makes them look like the failures they really are. Hell we had cocaine in the White House under Biden.

Hunter is probably getting the cold sweats. How long has it been?

How do his buddies in Ukraine can work a deal for him.

Answered Q-NUT.

Your dumb ass couldn't figure out the obvious?
Because you're oblivious Q-NUT, just like your dear leader.

Lies.
