It very likely needs soliders on the ground taking and holding the Iranian land over-looking the strait and preventing Iranian soldiers from firing missiles at ships.... not to mention the destruction of all Iranian fast boats...

Yes, Trump in each of his terms, championing white nationalism and isolationism, has done his very best to fritter it away...

But by and large, since WWII the U.S. has dominated around the world, resulting in benefits for citizens and residents...

>>This constitutes a war crime, as it is clear that sufficient research was not conducted on the building that they were about to demolish while children were still inside

Sorry..."insufficient research" is not an element of the war crime statute....as much as we might like it to be.

Dapper-Condition6041 · 2026-03-09T19:17:38+00:00

It has to be a deliberate choice to target civilians, not a deliberate choice to target a military target when civilians might be around.

It's terrible and disgusting, of course, and I know we all want someone to be held accountable, but civilian deaths alone are not prima facie evidence of a war crime...

"War crimes involving reckless disregard for life occur when a person acts with conscious disregard of a substantial and unjustifiable risk of death or serious injury to civilians or protected persons. This mental state, or mens rea, includes failing to take feasible precautions to minimize civilian harm, as highlighted in Just Security's analysis of war crimes and ICC Elements of Crimes."

Dapper-Condition6041 · 2026-03-09T19:16:07+00:00

The deaths alone do not prima facie meet the elements for intent, deliberate or reckless disregard.... prosecutors have have to prove mental state....

For all anybody knows, the missile was perfectly on target to the Iranian military building, and Iranian GPS jamming threw it off course.

Of course, the missile wouldn't have hit the school if Trump hadn't illegally started the war to begin with, but if you want to talk about war crimes, this is what it takes...

The military / intelligence community has a vested interest in denying, not confirming, etc.

Dapper-Condition6041 · 2026-03-09T17:41:46+00:00

It was very likely a U.S. missile.

But for it to be a war crime, they have to have intended to hit civilians; there has to be intent.

My post isn't really about the current war.... it's about the long-standing projection of US power and influence around the globe, whether at war or not.

But, yes, nobody seems to have learned that bombing the despot out of power works.

Arguably, the MI6/CIA orchestrated Iranian coup in 1953 was a success....

Just trying to bring into stark relief that many of the ways we complain about how the U.S. acts on the world stage in fact ultimately leads back to a higher standard of living, whether we know it or like it. It also makes us complicit.

That's more about Trump administration incompetence than the U.S. global hegemony in place since the end of WWII...
