President Trump orders attack on Venezuelan drug runners at sea

[Polishprince]

Ashes Babbitt was actively involved in a violent attack on Congress and the police

Allegedly involved.

The case was never proven in court, and she was never given any due process.

Further, Ms. Babbitt was hardly "violent".

She was an unarmed girl, and there was no reason to think that she was armed. Her life just didn't matter to the libs in charge.

They never make mistakes? Oh and when did drug smuggling become a capital crime with no court case?

When ? When 1.5 million Americans died from smuggled drugs - 2000-2025 AD. More than 3 times the number of Americans who died in World War 2, and 2,205 times as many who died in Iraq & Afghanistan (2001-2021).

And when that many of your people are killed, it's not a capital crime. It's a WAR.

 

[Polishprince]

It is not a battlefield. Words have meanings

Does it matter?

During the 2nd World War, the US military sank a lot of Germany's U-Boats who weren't in a battle at the time.

Where is the proof?

What would you like to see ?

Where is the proof?

What makes you imagine that you are entitled to any proof?

 

[protectionist]

I asked if it was a war. I made no declaration. You’re engaged in double talk. You’re the one running from the question. Some MAGA say this is war; some don’t. Which is it?

It's a war. What did you think it was ? A poker game ?

When narcoterrorists engage in their trade, they aren’t just criminals. They are terrorists.
And they can be taken out.

Stop trying to apply civilian concepts of “criminal law” to dealing with terrorists.

They don’t give a shit about the lives they take from the American people. And we aren’t obligated to give them any such consideration, either.

It is very much akin to shooting an advancing enemy combatant during wartime. They don’t get Miranda warnings and they are absolutely subject to a very sudden demise.

It is NOT wartime and the conflation is VERY dangerous

This is exactly right.

And actually libs don't have a problem with the concept, Osama Ladin was reportedly taken out at his home, without a trial. I have doubts that it happened the way B. Hussein O said, for several reasons.

To dispose of the body of Ladin without showing it to the public seemed stupid as shit, even for a dim bulb like Barry.

But since the libs had no problem with the story, they have no problem with the concept. But there is no way they will given President Trump credit for anything good.

Tell it to your running buddies.

 

[drudge X]

Wrong. There are always rules

If the adversaries don't follow these rules, no reason US should follow.

 

[protectionist]

What is dangerous is you conflating 1.5 million deaths over 25 years, with a convenience store robbery. It's the most costy WAR (by far) the US has ever been in, you bonehead.

 

[konradv]

If the adversaries don't follow these rules, no reason US should follow.

You’re just looking for an excuse to break the rules.

Enemy combatants don't.

Although I voted for Trump twice, I am worried that he wants to become a dictator.

Liar.

Ask if N. Korea, Russia, China, and Iran follow the rules.Trump and his predecessors are weak when it comes to the S. China Sea standoff against China. I want him to order several destroyers to dock right outside those phony islands and ask China what the **** are you gonna do about it.

 

[Lesh]

Ths becomes a slippery slope.

How long before cops or the military start “taking out” SUSPECTED drug smugglers

Or simply people that want gone.

This is third world shit

Check out Duterte

It doesn’t have to be any declared war. It is effectively the same thing, however, after the emergency declaration.

Terrorists have to accept that they are always targets. And death can come at them from any angle and from above or below and at any time, light or dark.

And, for drug-running narcoterrorists their very sudden deaths are well deserved.

We know Russia’s hasn’t. MAGA is trying to stop help from to Ukraine. Are they going to turn on Taiwan too?
