Designating groups as foreign terrorists has to do with rolling up their financial side. Actually *in fact* taking up arms under the law of armed conflict is what turns someone from a civilian into a combatant.

The number of ships being blown up while transporting drugs is far higher than I expected.
Perhaps there is a real drug running problem

Coast Guard can still interdict as they have always done.

The end result isn’t causing me any consternation, but I’m not gonna be a hypocrite and say I don’t think you have some validity to your points, either.

And before I get bombarded with downvotes I still think he’s the best potus of my 60 years.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Monday announced the latest in a series of strikes on boats accused of ferrying drugs, killing six people in attacks on two vessels in the eastern Pacific Ocean.

...The dual strikes on Sunday bring the total number of known attacks up to 19 and the death toll to at least 75 people


I'm sorry -- this very cheap public boasting over execution-style small-potatoes "drug-perps" is conspicuously over the top and disproportionate imo. How about an occasional capture of said "drug-running" vessels to confiscate and showcase proof of booty, and issuing a warning?

To be demonstrating an actual concern over "drugs", maybe Trump and Hegseth's boys need to re-calibrate this course of action and focus on Mexico? Or instead, on rooting out the existing heavy-duty drug domestic cartel action already operating openly, with near-impunity in US urban neighborhoods?

Do you really believe Hegseth is just indiscriminately killing fisherman?

Do you not believe in the law?

You're okay with the government killing suspects just because the government says they're guilty of crimes? No proof? No trial? No presumption of innocence?

How about if the government just starts gunning down people who look like illegal immigrants in the streets? You okay with that too? They're probably law-breakers after all, right?

I don't remember any headlines like this when Jug Ears was doing a lot of killing.


I remember several with our bombing campaign in Syria

You do realize that they have solid Intel about these boats right? Surely you don’t think that they are just shooting boats out of the water for the hell of shooting boats out of the water

Here’s an idea- if you don’t want to be blown out of the water then perhaps stop driving boats loaded with thousands of pounds of drugs

We shot down an iranian airliner once.

To think he's not would be putting all your faith in government, because the government has presented zero evidence these are all drug runners.

Statists blindly trust the government. Dont be a statist.

The Columbian president said they were drug boats. Is this affecting your supply of nose candy?

Secret courts handing out death sentences? Really? This is your America?

What in the ever-loving frick has happened to the Republican party. They used to be skeptical of government.

Here's the weird thing.

We're evaporating every one of these boats, and yet the Venezuelan warlords and kingpins are still finding people to pilot them.

Does the internet not exist in Venezuela, or are these people just so desperate that they don't care if they're turned to fish chum?
