“And the other thing is with the terrorists, you have to take out their families. When you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families. They care about their lives. Don’t kid yourself. But they say they don’t care about them. You have to take out their families,”
-Donald Trump

I don’t care where you stand. That’s the promotion of a war crime.

Don’t clutch your pearls too hard, you’ll break the strand.

And the U.S. and British bomber hundreds of thousands of CIVILIANS in Germany during 1941-1945;and then there were the atomic bombs used on Japan.

War crimes or necessary to STOP the wars?

So you think Curtis LeMay was a war criminal?

How about FDR and Truman?

What do you think we did in WWII?

Who won? Who isn’t winning anymore?

Duncan Hunter was brilliant defending Trump on TV this morning, can someone find the video.

He said “in war you must crush the enemy” “stop pussy footing around” “use whatever means necessary to extract the terrorists next targets”

I was cheering, the TV talking head couldn’t believe we had someone standing up for our safety.

Anyone remember Dresden, Carpet bombed to the ground just like London. Lots of women and Children in Dresden got bombed. But Germany started the war and defending yourself is a national responsibility.

Right. It is promoting a war crime.

That is a completely different issue from ROE's that enable a terrorist to shelter within a civilian community. Noncombatant civilians who are not participants in the war effort who are killed inadvertently during the course of legitimate strikes are one thing. That's why we could bomb German factories in WW2, and why targeting ISIS's oil tanker trucks is perfectly legitimate.

But advocating going after families specifically is a war crime. No way around that. Bunch of armchair trigger-pullers around here, I think.

Like wiping out the Branch Davidians at Waco, that kind of War Crime ?

Send all the Muzzies back to the ME or wherever they came from. As the sects within IzLame battle one another they'll kill each other in droves, whether they're men, women, or children just like they did in the World Trade Center.

Then you go over there and tell them about it. Start with Yemen where our good pals the Saudis are committing War Crimes every day, or maybe just Iraq where we have a fine "green zone" to hide in while plotting air strikes and drone strikes based on "intelligence" we get from Sunnis about their enemies who just happen to not be Sunni. Never a War Crime there, nope, not a chance.

Just "collateral damage" like Dresden. Using the term "War Crime" is a convenience that's applied for purely political reasons because war is a continuation of polotics by other means. Wake up, at least a quarter of the air strikes we've carried out were called War Crimes when Bush was President but now, presto chango, using the exact same methods they're "surgical".

ISIS and any group like them must be destroyed to the last man, woman and child.

Spare only the infants who have not yet learned that "Jews are the descendants of pigs and dogs".

Baloney.
Crush them and napalm every context that gives them aid shelter protection and even a glimmer of hope.
The sooner the better. It ends the conflicts and the eternal whack a mole game we engage to keep the fight going on with no end in sight.

THAT is the real war crime.

I may not have said it in Trumps terms, but I can't say I disagree. Terrorists beget terrorists.

It was their wives ululating as the towers burned and laughing as men burned on a bridge in Falluja...

It is their male children who grow up to burn people alive or drown them in cages, who rape boys, and chop heads off of innocents..

It is their female children who grow up to breed more of the vermin.

All they will understand is what Trump suggests.
