I’m not sure about that…remember that US Navy SEALs committed war crimes in Afghanistan, torturing prisoners, killing them, and urinating on the corpses. The Bloated Yam pardoned the leader of that merry band.
We hanged Japan’s General Yamashita for doing the same thing back in 1945, and he likely died an innocent man. The troops who committed the atrocities in Manila were not under his command, and he told the Admiral commanding them that he wanted to declare the Philippine capital an “Open City,” as MacArthur had done in 1941.
Given that history, and given Kent State and My Lai, I think that under the new administration, and the Bloated Yam telling cops “get rough” on people, I think our troops will shoot to kill. They know the Bloated Yam regards them as “losers” and “suckers,” but he will not jail them.
I doubt the seals would follow illegal orders
