New Deep State Op Drops: Pete Heseth Said "Kill Them All" Just Like Colonel Kurtz, and US Planes Fired on Drug Boat Survivors Clinging to the Wreckage Like Heroes

I missed this story, but someone I knew who spent the holidays with her liberal family said that CNN is pushing this latest op non-stop.

It has to do with the latest drug boat interdiction-by-missile.

There are two main hoaxes in this latest op. The first is that Pete Hegseth showed that he is a psychopathic dry-drunk unfit to serve by demanding that the military "kill everybody."

The second, pushed by deranged insurrectionist and future court-martial convict Mark Kelly, is that there is video of the survivors of the first missile strike clinging to the wreckage of the drug boat, but then the second missile ordered by Jack T. Ripper, I mean Pete Hegseth, murders them.

Here's the Washington Post -- not edited enough by centrist liberal Bari Weiss -- pushing the hoax, based on highly credible Unnamed Sources.

The Washington Post
@washingtonpost
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to "kill everybody" in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth's instructions, according to two sources.

Here's the Washington Post op:

Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all

As two men clung to a stricken, burning ship targeted by SEAL Team 6, the Joint Special Operations commander followed the defense secretary's order to leave no survivors.
The longer the U.S. surveillance aircraft followed the boat, the more confident intelligence analysts watching from command centers became that the 11 people on board were ferrying drugs.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave a spoken directive, according to two people with direct knowledge of the operation. "The order was to kill everybody," one of them said.
A missile screamed off the Trinidad coast, striking the vessel and igniting a blaze from bow to stern. For minutes, commanders watched the boat burning on a live drone feed. As the smoke cleared, they got a jolt: Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck.
The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack -- the opening salvo in the Trump administration's war on suspected drug traffickers in the Western Hemisphere -- ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth's instructions, two people familiar with the matter said. The two men were blown apart in the water.

The article strains to insinuate that the "Kill everyone" order came after the first strike, with the express intent to kill the two alleged survivors clinging to the wreck, while soft-pedaling the actual claims made in this op, that the order came before any missile strikes at all.

There's also no context for the "kill everyone" order, if it was made at all. Here's some context I can imagine: Given resistance leftists and their determination to refuse to carry out "illegal orders" -- that is itself an op -- I can see leftist personnel objecting to the strikes entirely, saying "we should just stop the boats and arrest them" and an annoyed Secretary of War saying, "We have declared war on the narcoterrorists, and we kill people in war. You have your orders, kill everyone attempting to smuggle drugs into the US."

Or something like that.

The fact that this article provides no context for the alleged order strongly suggests that the context, were it supplied, would undermine the narrative being pushed. Propagandists don't leave out context which supports their propaganda messaging, after all.

Hegseth's order, which has not been previously reported, adds another dimension to the campaign against suspected drug traffickers. Some current and former U.S. officials and law-of-war experts have said that the Pentagon's lethal campaign -- which has killed more than 80 people to date -- is unlawful and may expose those most directly involved to future prosecution.

Which is the point of the Democrats' "Refuse to obey the chain of command" op.

And that's further context for the alleged order: Resistance leftists might say "But I am exposing myself to prosecution by AOC and Mark Kelly" and Hegseth might have responded, "You have your orders, you cannot be prosecuted for following a lawful order, I am ordering you to kill everyone on those boats. You have no legal liability."

The alleged traffickers pose no imminent threat of attack against the United States and are not, as the Trump administration has tried to argue, in an "armed conflict" with the U.S., these officials and experts say.

Well, if experts say....

Amazingly, even the New York Times points out that critical context for this alleged order is entirely absent from the hit piece. Even they seem to realize that this is likely yet another op.

The Times also points out that while the Post strains to link the order to the second strike -- they want to claim the second strike was an attempt to fulfill Hegseth's alleged order -- in fact there is no actual connection between the order and the second strike.

It is not surprising that the WashPost, which originated the Russia collusion hoax, the Kavanaugh hoax, and the first Trump impeachment hoax, would run another false info op. It IS a bit surprising that the NYT isn't going along with it in their normal manner.

Hegseth dismissed the op.

"As usual, the fake news is delivering more fabricated, inflammatory, and derogatory reporting to discredit our incredible warriors fighting to protect the homeland," Hegseth wrote on X after the report dropped.
"As we've said from the beginning, and in every statement, these highly effective strikes are specifically intended to be 'lethal, kinetic strikes,'" the Pentagon chief continued. "The declared intent is to stop lethal drugs, destroy narco-boats, and kill the narco-terrorists who are poisoning the American people.

"Every trafficker we kill is affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization."
Echoing Hegseth, Pentagon press secretary Kingsley Wilson argued: "Every lethal kinetic strike against narco-terrorists is:1) Completely legal 2) Conducted against the operations of a Designated Terrorist Organization 3) In defense of vital U.S. national interests."
President Trump shared footage of the Sept. 2 attack -- the first of more than a dozen military strikes targeting suspected drug smugglers in the Caribbean Sea and Eastern Pacific -- showing only the first missile hitting the speed boat, and seemingly obliterating it.

Hegseth also denied the claim that there were any survivors clinging to the boat targeted by the second strike.

"The Biden administration preferred the kid gloves approach, allowing millions of people -- including dangerous cartels and unvetted Afghans -- to flood our communities with drugs and violence," Hegseth's post continued. "The Trump administration has sealed the border and gone on offense against narco-terrorists.
"Biden coddled terrorists, we kill them."
The war secretary argued that the strikes against suspected narcoterrorists, part of a campaign dubbed "Operation Southern Spear," are "lawful under both US and international law, with all actions in compliance with the law of armed conflict -- and approved by the best military and civilian lawyers, up and down the chain of command."
Democratic lawmakers vowed to investigate and prosecute anyone who gave "illegal orders" in response to the report.
"The idea that wreckage from one small boat in a vast ocean is a hazard to marine traffic is patently absurd, and killing survivors is blatantly illegal," Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.), wrote on X. "Mark my words: It may take some time, but Americans will be prosecuted for this, either as a war crime or outright murder."
Rep. Eugene Vindman (D-Va.) warned Hegseth that he will be "held accountable for illegal orders you give.

Kelly continues breaking military law by telling military personnel they themselves can discern "legal" orders from "illegal" ones, despite the fact that the code of military justice says that personnel can only reject "manifestly" illegal orders and specifically tells them not to bring their own judgement to that question.

======

The basic idea is the same as you wouldn't shoot a disabled, no longer a threat, soldier in the back.

Except, it doesn't apply here. The boat was described as disabled, not destroyed. So, targeting the boat again is valid since it could be recovered, including its cargo, and potentially reused. Attacking it until it sinks is perfectly valid.

The other problem is that these terrorists (according to the US definition as outlined in the AUMF, Tren de Aragua smugglers are terrorists) are not in uniform. Geneva doesn't apply to non-uniformed combatants.

2) The UK has no obligation to give its citizens a trial by jury because jurors are too slow and too likely to find people innocent.

I can't possibly tell you how little I am concerned about the US military killing narcoterrorists/drug smuggler who are attempting to bring chemicals into the American heartland to kill and/or physically and psychologically disable American citizens.

Frankly, dropping a nuke on Maduro's skull would be a nice topper for this whole operation. Just to drive the point home to those attacking the American homeland with drugs.

I wish they'd go ahead and start prosecuting Kelly as well. I'm pretty sure this is more of the effort to gin up some lunkhead (this time in our military) to murder the Orange Hitler giving illegal orders.

They require the latter, to get rid of the former. Bureaucracy. Red Tape. Micromanagement.

Lately, you’ll likely read something to the effect in local crime stories “After the shooting, police performed heroic life saving measures, but he died at the hospital”

It's not a war crime since we're not at war. It's just murder.

We're just openly bombing boats that may or may not be literal civilian fishers. They keep saying fishing boats don't come with multiple outboard motors but if you look up a picture of an offshore fishing boat they all have that feature.

The argument now is if the boat was disabled, it's fine because they where still a threat? If it's okay, summary executions of drug dealers on the street is fine as well…especially if the person has even a slight (not orange) tan. The fact that anyone is defending this is mind boggling.

These ships are destroyed off the coast of Venezuela. That's over 2000 miles away. Those boats aren't traveling that far...if they can pin points where they are being loaded, why aren't they being arrested and confiscated?

Kash claimed they're intercepting comms that the precursors are getting hard to come by. If China actually shuts it down, there aren't a lot of other sources to make fake fentanyl, which really took off when the opioid strip mall pill farms got shut down.

The North Texas winter forecast is murky, largely due to a weak La Niña that offers no strong signal for temperature or precipitation.

Temperatures in the Dallas-Fort Worth area are expected to fluctuate wildly between mild stretches and significant Arctic air intrusions.

The region will likely lean toward drier-than-normal conditions for the first half of winter, but an unstable Polar Vortex remains a "wild card" for severe cold blasts.

They don't like the idea that when they lose elections, they lost the power to make determinations.

The One Party urge is strong in the Dems, because they really believe that we should be governed by them when they win, and the "principles" ("interpretations of the law) via judges when they lose. i.e. Democratic Party principles.

Apparently, Carter Page went through a process of "due process". The Dem version.

If you've got evidence that he's working with the cartels then arrest him for aiding in terrorism, or smuggling, or whatever you've got evidence of... but words have meanings and he's not guilty of treason.

272 >>> As a teenager, I heard stories from the old timers who fought in WWII, both Pacific and Europe. The "laws of war" as the modern JAGoffs claim certainly didn't apply.
One fellow, and Okinawa vet -- well his stories were just unspeakable of what happened. And yes, our guys shot and killed enemy trying to surrender all the time.

It gets worse than that. I know of a Vietnam Vet who was ordered to shoot fisherman fishing too close to the Navy boats. Not Vietcong, not soldiers. Just civilians too close to our ships. Having to do that, kill innocents, really messed him up and gave him PTSD. That's not what he had signed up to do. But how do you know that fisherman isn't secretly Vietcong? Is the man who gave him that order to kill going to be strung up and taken to court, if they are still alive? No.

War is evil. What you have to do to win is often unthinkable. Which is why wars should be avoided at all costs, but when they have to happen should be swift and complete. And all the war pigs in Congress who gin up fighting pointless wars (looking at you Miss Lindsey) are just as evil, if not more so, than people like Hegseth who are just military men ordered to carry out those wars.

It's the first time in the US that the full cut, in one film, is being released at all.

The big change is that the Crazy 88 scene is in color (he had to turn down the saturation to 0 on the sequence to make it black and white to get an R rating, hence the Whole Bloody Affair being released without a rating), but there's also a 10 minute animated sequence added in as well.

303 37 The basic idea is the same as you wouldn't shoot a disabled, no longer a threat, soldier in the back.

Except, it doesn't apply here. The boat was described as disabled, not destroyed. So, targeting the boat again is valid since it could be recovered, including its cargo, and potentially reused. Attacking it until it sinks is perfectly valid.

The other problem is that these terrorists (according to the US definition as outlined in the AUMF, Tren de Aragua smugglers are terrorists) are not in uniform. Geneva doesn't apply to non-uniformed combatants.

Many have already made the point that the Geneva and Hague Conventions don't apply to these narco-terrorist smugglers. No need to re-hash.

I find it unlikely that Hegseth would observe this op in real time and exercise the 3000-mile screw driver to order a second strike.

Kelly's not-so-hidden message is for people to disobey Trump's orders now or face retribution in the future when the Dems regain power.

320 What bothers me is how clueless people are to actual law.

These are unflagged vessels hauling illegal cargo in internation waters. Unflagged, mean they belong to no nation. International waters mean it is the wild west. There is no "law" requiring arrest, and no "law" we could prosecute them for. We could not prosecute these people in the U.S. - our laws do not apply to them. We would fish them out of the water and immediately let them go or let them drown. Those are our options.

If these were pirates, would we even be having this discussion? Pirates get hung.

It has long, and I mean hundreds of years, been understood that what the U.S. is doing is perfectly legal. National militaries can patrol the high seas, and take out bad guys, with very few rules.

If they are combatants, they can be killed to the last man, woman or child. But, the left is trying to insinuate that these folks are not combatants. If that is the case, the law of war is inapplicable and these people can be treated like pirates. There is no requirement not to kill all such people, and that has been the traditional law forever.

ACLU News & Commentary, Obama Apologized for the Drone Killings of Two Western victims. What about Everyone Else?
by Director, ACLU National Security Project

Council on Foreign Relations, 'Obama's Final Drone Strike Data' Jan. 20, 2017

"President Obama deserves credit for even acknowledging the existence of the targeted killing program (something his predecessor did not do), and for increasing transparency into the internal processes that purportedly guided the authorization of drone strikes. However, many needed reforms were left undone - in large part because there was zero pressure from congressional members, who, with few exceptions, were the biggest cheerleaders of drone strikes."

The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, 17-01-17, Human Rights, Drone Warfare
'Obama's Covert Drone War in Numbers: Ten times more strikes than Bush'

And/or, How can the (United) States continue to get opiate drug settlement money (which they're blowing through like all of the C19 funding) and the off-shore drugs aren't coming in?

I know this was the last thread, but can we have health insurance companies sue the media and democratic party for these hoaxes? We have the mentally ill literally going nuts over them and falling off their sane paths, thus requiring more treatment and more costs to insurance companies. Couldn't an enterprising lawyer make a class action against all these politicos and media companies? I'd be down for it...

This is all all you need to know about Kelly's recent squawking: he'll be running for President in '28.

He knows he can't possibly win the Dem POTUS nomination. But he needs to get face time early in the primaries, because I bet he sees himself as a front-runner for Veep. When a hard-left guy wins the POTUS nomination, Kelly sees himself as the military experience and tough talk guy the Dems will probably need on the ticket. Being an astronaut is a plus with some voters, too.

Beware the "points of similarity" slop that passes for "analysis" these days. The worst form is the "Single point of similarity" which often isn't a similarity at all, but somebody just saying something is "kind of like" something else.

Neither of these has any factual basis, as the NYT has said on Hegseth, and is obvious to anyone with a functioning brain in the second case, but women like Heather Cox Richardson or pushing these rocks up hill hard.

465 When the boats are in international waters, they are required to fly the flag of the nation to the jurisdiction of which they are subject. These boats do no such thing. Nor do they respond to radio hailing or other attempts at contact. Therefore, they appear to be pirates, who are outside the laws of war. The US has been taking out pirates since the Marines went to the shores of Tripoli as directed by President Jefferson. The whiners can pound sand.
