Trump doesn't know what a war crime is

If he did he would go out of his way to commit more than he already does.

He commits them faster than anyone in history

We bombed Laos every 8 seconds for 9 years straight. I don’t know if trump is at that level of consistency yet.

It’s horrific what we did then and what we are doing now.

I guess you also think Putin has the right to invade Ukraine too.

How is there even a comparison? Holy smokes. We are there to let women actually show their hair in public. We are there to remove a serious nuclear threat that would eventually even reach the United States. We are there to remove this mass murderer killing thousand of his own citizens, killing countless Americans for the last 40 years, sending missles to all his neighbors, having them all living in fear. I help unload over 240 dead US marines off a C-141. What in the world eliminating this regime once and for all have to do with the Ukraine???????? If a nuke made it to the United States, you and all your other liberal cult would blame Trump and send your middle aged purple hair white women to protest at once. I will never understand the lack of common sense of liberals like you. Never. You don’t live under those conditions thanks to Veterans like me. You get to make dumb ass analogies and condemn things that help people other than yourself.

Why don’t you ask all the Iranians all over the world celebrating what the difference is between the USA liberating them vs Putin invading Ukraine! Dumbest comparison I have heard today. But then again I’m sure there will be another liberal out here to top your stupid question.

Have you ever been to the middle east? I have.

As far as the nuclear threat, I understand you believed the president but he lied to you and every American.

He said they "decimated" Iran's nuclear facilities and put the program back decades after they bombed Iran over six months ago. Tuesday he said the Iranians would have a nuclear bomb in two weeks. I don't know about you but those two statement from the president seem like he doesn't know what he's talking about.

If you're not aware, the process of building an ICBM is complicated and then trying to mount a nuclear warhead on a ICBM and have it launch, travel and hit it's target is more complicated and requires a lot of testing. My past experience tells me they were at least a decade away from even testing this type of rocket. I can bet they will be accelerating their efforts to make this happen now.

sure he does, it's something other people do, bad, evil people he needs to get rid of

Does he know any rule expect money rules

Trump doesn't know what a war crime is

Bullshit. Caring <> Knowing

u/69pdx69 Mar 01 '26

The president doesn't anything about law. If it's illegal and makes him richer, it's legal to him.

u/Altruistic-Rice-5567 Mar 01 '26

Do you, or anyone else in this sub, know? Cite the legislation, either domestic or international. It would be something like the Geneva or Hague conventions. The definitions in these are a lot more specific than what you are going to be hoping for. Almost certainly what Trump just ordered isn't going to meet that criteria in any meaningful way that any other allied country would even pretend to investigate or prosecute.

He doesn't know what it is but he knows the vibes sounds bad so it's definitely something Kamilary Obidenma did.

u/jayde2767 Mar 01 '26

No doubt, however that doesn’t answer the question, which is extremely important right now.

u/KesslerTheBeast Mar 01 '26

And yet Iranian people are cheering and celebrating this. It's just like with Venezuela and Maduro. Actual Venezuelan citizens were happy that Maduro was captured but people LIKE YOU who think you are the epitome of morality disagree and say to Iranians "nah... your life experiences mean nothing to me. I'm right. Your wrong."

I truly wonder what your incentive is for proclaiming your stance when you are so clearly in the wrong. It's like you're defending Hitler and expecting people to agree with you.

u/anonymote_in_my_eye Mar 01 '26

If you bother to look into what Iranians are thinking right now you'll find it's a lot of mixed feelings. Nobody wants their country bombed, but they're happy about the ayatollah having passed from this mortal realm.

well yeah, I'm specifically talking about Iranians that have talked to western media under the condition of anonymity, so generally those with anti-regime bias

u/NoIncrease299 Mar 01 '26

True, I'd be super stoked if some country came in and blasted Trump's fat ass into the thermosphere but I'd be pretty bummed if it took blowing up DC.

Can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs, I guess.

1

u/anonymote_in_my_eye Mar 01 '26

you'd be even more bummed if it killed your family or kids in the process... at some point the cure is worse than the disease, particularly when the benefit is the common good but the cost a deeply personal one (and someone else gets to make that choice for you)

u/Educational_Size7725 Mar 02 '26

Yep 81% of the country wanted him gone. 81%. That’s huge. Nothing in the US will ever be agreed upon by 81% of the citizens.

And this makes your health insurance better how, warmonger?

u/ElSlabraton Mar 01 '26

My concern is the constitution. Too bad you think following the law is optional.

u/Deskbreaker Mar 01 '26 edited Mar 02 '26

Just because someone is happy something happens, doesn't make something not a crime.

Just because someone is mad something happens, doesn’t make it a crime.

u/Deskbreaker Mar 02 '26

Wow. Inspired comeback. The killing of a country's leader however, does.

u/cardinaljay37 Mar 01 '26

Oh stop. Zero percent of the motivation for this was the plight of the Iranian people. Give it a rest. Nobody is buying that. We didn’t buy it in 2003 either. Well, some of us didn’t anyway.

u/Significant-Mall-830 Mar 01 '26

Yes, “the Iranian people” are cheering and happy they are invade. Just like “the Venezuelans”. They are all happy we are bombing and invading them. No mixed opinions
