Statement of the “Former JAGs Working Group” on Media Reports ofPentagon “No Quarter” Orders in Caribbean Boat Strikes

[Fort Fun Indiana]

This is a statement prepared and released by a working group of former JAGs.

JAG = Judge Advocate General, from the legal branch of the U.S. military,

They reach a simple but damning conclusion:

"The Former JAGs Working Group unanimously considers both the giving and the execution of these orders, if true, to constitute war crimes, murder, or both."

Former JAGs paid by whom?

Irrelevant. Cult desperation.

Again, the bottom line is that, since orders to kill survivors of an attack at sea are
“patently illegal,” anyone who issues or follows such orders can and should be
prosecuted for war crimes, murder, or both."

Irrelevant. Cult desperation.

Unfortunate for you, cultist, it is very relevant.

When it began, everyone was saying that they were setting up the moment that they would then, without any legal basis, begin the false accusations.

Now we'll see how effective their sedition was.

It's not relevant in the least. Sorry.

But your excuse not to read the material is noted. And expected.

Irrelevant. Cult desperation.

Definitely leftist hurt feelings.

Background

The Acts Reported: A Summary
Regardless of whether the U.S. is involved in an armed conflict, law enforcement
operations, or any other application of military force, international and domestic U.S. law
prohibit the intentional targeting of defenseless persons. If the Washington Post and CNN
reports are true, the two survivors of the 2 September 2025 U.S. attack against a vessel
carrying 11 persons were rendered unable to continue their mission when U.S. military
forces significantly damaged the vessel carrying them. Under such circumstances, not
only does international law prohibit targeting these survivors, but it also requires the
attacking force to protect, rescue, and, if applicable, treat them as prisoners of war.
Violations of these obligations are war crimes, murder, or both. There are no other
options."

A long unattributed cut and paste. Only a reference to leftist tabloids.

“a vessel
carrying 11 persons were rendered unable to continue their mission”

What was their mission? Can you cut and paste an unattributed response?

Definitely leftist hurt feelings.

No, he learned a new word this week and wants everyone to know he will use it.

Of course, any normal human not having a rabid cult episode understands it's from the reading material in the OP.

‘Since orders to kill survivors of an attack at sea are “patently illegal,” anyone who

issues or follows such orders can and should be prosecuted for war crimes, murder,

or both.’

Starting with Hegseth and other criminals in the Trump regime.

Supporting drug runners and murdering them are not the only two options, in the minds of normal people not programmed by your cult.

Hegseth is on his way out. The fat rapist does not like public embarrassment. He will still get his pardon, though.

Good lord you're stupid. It's a war crime. Turn his drunken ass over to the Hague.

That's International Humanitarian Law from the second Geneva convention in 1949.

Key principles of IHL regarding survivors at sea:
Protected Status: Shipwrecked, wounded, and sick persons (whether enemy combatants or civilians) are considered protected persons under the Second Geneva Convention of 1949 (GC II) and customary international law. They may not be targeted, murdered, or ill-treated.

Duty to Rescue and Care: After an engagement, the attacking force is legally obliged to take all possible measures, without delay, to search for, collect, and care for the shipwrecked and wounded, as military circumstances permit. They must be provided with adequate medical care and attention based on their condition.

Prohibition of "No Quarter": Orders to give "no quarter" (meaning to kill everyone and take no prisoners) are explicitly forbidden under the 1907 Hague Convention IV and are considered a grave breach of the laws of war.

Individual Accountability: Commanders who issue orders to kill survivors, and individuals who carry out such "patently illegal orders," can be prosecuted for war crimes, murder, or both. Military personnel have a duty to disobey orders that are manifestly unlawful.

These rules apply regardless of whether the individuals were enemy combatants or civilians, provided they are no longer actively participating in hostilities

Another of your goofy conspiracy theories.

Hegseth is clearly an incompetent criminal who is unfit for his position.
