    Bullshit, that was a straight up a war crime. Iran never declared war and we just attacked them for no legal reason whatsoever.

      It is a fucking warship in international waters - if it is a war, then it is a valid target.

      The US’s war as a whole is illegitimate, I agree. So if you want to complain about illegality then argue that, instead of an attack on a legitimate military target inside the war - that is silly.

        The US murdered those sailors, knew they were defenseless, and did not inform anyone and let them drown. Fucking horrible.

        I am done giving the US any leeway with the way they have been acting. Department of War, lethality, and the rest of their garbage.

        Playing with the lives of the Cuban people for no reason other than they can. It is disgusting, they did nothing to deserve this.

          The US sub not picking up the sailors after sinking the ship does seem like a straight up warcrime.

          I am done giving the US any leeway with the way they have been acting. Department of War, lethality, and the rest of their garbage.

          Oh, I am right there with you. Fuck the US.

          But I just like randomly flinging around words like “illegal” in the sense of “things I don’t like”. If we do not require ourselves to make sure what we say is true, then soon we will be no better than them.
