"Former JAGs" sounds suspiciously close to "former Intel agents".

And scruffy sounds awfully close to scrotum.
But I don't think that matters much, ya know?
They were military lawyers.

"Were" being the operative word.
Maybe they'll get court martialed like Kelly.
^^^ you really are a moron. “Talking to reporters” without facts or evidence is meaningless. What reporters were spoken to?
Who “spoke to reporters”
Your “unnamed sources and whistle blower” claims amount to another Adam Schiff style hoax.

Not sure what point you think you just made.
Other than to desperately search for an excuse not to read their argument.

And yet the Republicans led committees are now investigating, with leaders of both saying the actions described ARE illegal.
And the white house won't deny it happened Neither will Hegseth.
It's not going away, no matter how many tantrums you throw.
A group of unknown people said some stuff. Big deal. You loons get dumber by the day.

Yes, thats how simple-minded people think.
Normal, educated adults understand what they said is the topic.
Not thay I would expect you to be able to read 4 pages with, frankly, some words you don't know.
Totally nutty premise. The president is allowed to kill pirates at sea AT WILL. He's even allowed to put a bounty on their heads. It's in the Constitution, you can read about it.

100% wrong, per people who actually know and understand the law.
You seem like an educated person. Why would you opt to pull stuff right out of your ass, instead of reading a 4 page document on what the experts on the law say?
Just kidding, we both know why.
Who exactly are they and why should I care? Explain that first. Once their bona fides are cleared up and it appears they have no individual agendas perhaps then it will be time for discussion.

This of course was already explained.
But again, you are the guy who refuses to read things.
As to who exactly they are? Where? No need to read nonsense by unknown authors.
I'm right. I'm always right. You should know that by now.
I was trained in constitutional law by Walter Murphy.
The Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act of 1986 has been used routinely by the US Coast Guard for forty years to board foreign ships on the high seas with nothing more than allegations of drug trafficking. Overseas operators and conspirators are eligible for prosecution too.
Once you've been declared a terrorist organization, prosecution means anytime anywhere, for any reason or no reason at all.
There is plenty of precedent on these points.
Article 1 Section 8 of our Constitution gives Congress the power to issue letters of marque, which basically means hire mercenaries to kill someone, or put a bounty on someone"s head.
The drug smugglers are now aware, that engaging in this occupation equates with risk of life. There's nothing more to be said.

You are really not getting this.
It's apparently against the law, even if you call them narco terrorists, or enemy combatants, or whatever the buzzword is on Newsmax today.
Maybe we should ask what the experts say.
Like, ya know... former JAGs...

Let's ask a Republican lawyer who is now a Congressman: "Rep. Mike Turner (R-Ohio) told Cordes on Sunday that “if that occurred, that would be very serious, and I agree that would be an illegal act,” - ABC
Or maybe a former wing commander in the Air Force: Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) said on ABC’s “This Week” that “if it was as if the article said, that is a violation of the law of war.”

“If true” are the only words of any meaning in that “working group” statement.
Personally, I don’t believe that the claim is true. There is a total lack of any support for the claim. (So damn sick and tired of hearsay claims being offered as “evidence” for partisan attack claims.)
Yes I am. It's plain as day to all but the foggiest leftist.
No, it is not "against" the law. It IS the law. Congress can authorize the President to issue letters of marque. It is currently up for reauthorization in the form of HR1238, which you can read about here:
Burchett Introduces Bill to Authorize President Trump to Issue Letters of Marque and Reprisals Against Cartels
WASHINGTON, D.C., (Feb. 13th, 2024) – U.S. Congressman Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) introduced the Cartel Marque and Reprisal Authorization Act of 2025. Rep. Mark Messmer (R-Ind.) is a co-lead on the bill with Rep. Burchett. The legislation would authorize President Trump to commission privately armed...
The same experts who gave us the clot shot? No thanks.
Just another leftard psy op.
Nothing new here.
That is February 2025 and it looks like the senate and house never passed the legislation....Yes I am. It's plain as day to all but the foggiest leftist.

And you are not understanding that killing the two people that were clinging for their lives in the water after the first strike were then targeted and murdered.
That is a war crime....under any and all conditions.
We are not in the business of feeding and clothing drug runners.
If there is a war on drugs then anyone running drugs is an enemy combatant, and uniformed or not, they can be killed on the spot. Same as terrorism.
The message to the cartels is clear: run drugs, expect to die. It's a good message. Long overdue.
