    Isn’t murdering random civilians a war crime?

    Because of course there is zero evidence that this was a drug vessel. There is zero evidence, beyond the word of serial liars

      The guy is killing them for fun. Not unlike a bored emperor looking to pass the time.

      For a drug smuggling vessel that boat was sure just floating there. I mean I’d think if you were smuggling drugs you’d want to get to the delivery point as fast as possible rather than just sitting in place.

      This wouldn’t justify extrajudicially killing a foreign citizen, but if I was running drugs I’d make my vessel look like a fishing boat.

        A non-moving fishing boat?

        Why risk your own personnel? Just pay off the right people in the Trump administration and a US military aircraft will hand deliver the drugs for you into the USA.

      It’s not hard for a drug smuggling boat to put up fishing rods but I’m still very suspicious about this
