…IN TRUMP’S ILLICIT\u00a0 WAR
\nCRIME WAVE ACROSS IRAN<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n
\n

SOTN<\/a> Editor’s Note: We have not heard one voice in the entire U.S. Congress over the past 2 weeks as the Trump administration commits one war crime after another across the Islamic Republic of Iran.\u00a0 Not only did both chambers refuse to restrain President Trump during the lead-up to this unprovoked war of naked aggression, Congress has said very little about the odious war crimes committed by the aptly named U.S. Department of War.<\/h3>\n

What’s even worse than that, however, is the extraordinary insouciance demonstrated by the American body politic about the terrible fate of the people of Iran.\u00a0 Truly, the pervasive callousness and stunning indifference to the plight of defenseless Iranian civilians exhibited by the US citizenry is as shocking as it is mortifying.<\/h3>\n
\n

KEY POINT:<\/strong> It’s as though the American people collectively suffer from Empathy Deficit Disorder (EDD).\u00a0 However, whenever such a serious emotional\/mental disorder grips an entire nation, that psychopathological endemic will inevitably precipitate some type of instant karma (just as Tel Aviv is now getting pummeled by multiple missile barrages daily soon after the Netanyahu regime demolished Gaza). See: WATCH! Tel Aviv severely damaged after numerous missile barrages and drone attacks<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n
\n

The crucial point here is that the U.S. Congress, by their criminal negligence as the legislative branch solely empowered to declare war as well as their crime of omissions by letting an obviously deranged US president utterly destroy a sovereign nation without cause, has clearly abdicated their essential role in reigning in the dangerously rogue POTUS. See: Trump says US may strike Iran\u2019s Kharg Island oil export hub \u2018just for fun\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Perhaps even sadder than the “COMPLETELY CORRUPT CONGRESS CRITTERS COMPLICITY” is that the American people continue to allow this horrifically deadly and devastating war to be conducted in their name and with tax dollars.\u00a0 Both Left<\/em> and the Right<\/em> have shown their true colors in this regard whereby neither side appears to care about anything but their own narrow political agendas and selfish personal interests.\u00a0 Nor do these NIMBYs seem to care about anyone else or their property\/possessions … as long as it’s “Not In Their (My) Back Yard” their ignorance is ‘bliss’ and their apathy is ‘contentment’.<\/h3>\n

All we can say is “Look out, America!” because it isn’t going to be a Happy 250th Birthday party this year.\u00a0 \u00a0In light of the emerging reality that the United States of America is entering the final stages of the Fourth Turning<\/em>, the chickens are coming home to roost as never before after 80 years of terrorizing the entire planetary civilization since the end of World War II in 1945.<\/h3>\n

Rights groups have slammed United States Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth for saying that \u201cno quarter\u201d will be shown to Iran, as the US and Israel continue their military campaign against the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will keep pressing. We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies,\u201d Hegseth told reporters on Friday.<\/p>\n

Under the\u00a0Hague Convention<\/a>\u00a0and other international treaties, it is illegal to threaten that no quarter will be given.<\/p>\n

Domestic laws, such as the 1996 War Crimes Act, also prohibit such policies. US military manuals likewise warn that threats of \u201cno quarter\u201d are illegal.<\/p>\n

Brian Finucane, a senior adviser at the International Crisis Group, a think tank, said Hegseth\u2019s comments appear to run afoul of those standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese comments are very striking,\u201d Finucane told Al Jazeera over a phone call. \u201cIt raises questions about whether this belligerent, lawless rhetoric is being translated into how the war is being conducted on the battlefield.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Hegseth has publicly dismissed concerns about international law, claiming he would abide no \u201cstupid rules of engagement\u201d and no \u201cpolitically correct wars\u201d.<\/p>\n

His rhetoric has provoked concern among some experts that measures designed to prevent civilian harm are being ignored in favour of a campaign of \u201cmaximum lethality\u201d.<\/p>\n

Hegseth\u2019s remarks also come after a US strike on a girls\u2019 school in southern Iran that killed more than 170 people, most of them children. The war has left at least 1,444 Iranians dead and millions more displaced.<\/p>\n
