"Think about that: if these men were the “narco-terrorists” the #Pentagon claims, they would have been paraded around as proof.
Instead, the #Defense Dept destroyed the only documentation...
This is a top-down moral collapse under #PeteHegseth & whoever in the #Trump orbit green-lit these illegal strikes. And let’s be clear: if a private citizen killed 85 people with no #legal authority, we wouldn’t debate terminology — we’d call it #murder."

Alongside the post is a 21-second-long #SnuffFilm showing the boat being struck.
Thursday’s strike comes as the #Pentagon is facing bipartisan criticism over a September attack on an *alleged* drug vessel in which the #military fired follow-up strikes, killing surviving crew members.

A Pentagon review has faulted Pete Hegseth for using Signal on his personal device to transmit sensitive information about planned strikes in Yemen, saying it could have endangered U.S. troops. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/12/04/world/politics/pentagon-hegseth-signal-yemen/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #us #donaldtrump #petehegseth #signal #yemen #pentagon
#Hegseth’s order, which has not been previously reported, adds another dimension to the campaign against suspected drug traffickers. Some current & former #US officials & #LawOfWar experts have said that the #Pentagon’s lethal campaign—which has killed more than 80 people to date—is #unlawful & may expose those most directly involved to future prosecution.

The Pentagon concluded that Alibaba, Baidu and BYD should be added to a list of companies that aid the Chinese military. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/11/27/world/pentagon-alibaba-china-military/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #pentagon #alibaba #china #us #tech #defense
It is extraordinary for the #Pentagon, which until the 2nd #Trump term has usually gone out of its way to act & appear apolitical, to directly #threaten a sitting member of #Congress with investigation.
In its statement, the Pentagon suggested that Kelly’s statements in the video interfered with the “loyalty, morale, or good order & discipline of the armed forces” by citing the federal #law that prohibits such actions.
The #Pentagon says it is investigating #Democratic Senator & former astronaut #MarkKelly of Arizona for possible breaches of #military #law after Kelly joined a handful of other lawmakers in a video that called for US troops to refuse unlawful orders - which happens to be required by military law. Ridiculous.

The #Pentagon’s statement, which was posted on social media on Monday, cited a federal #law that allows retired service members to be recalled to active duty on orders of the defense secretary for possible court-martial or other measures. Sen #MarkKelly served in the US #Navy as a fighter pilot before going on to become an #astronaut. He retired at the rank of captain.

Congressional #Democrats who appeared in a social media video urging #US troops to refuse to follow “illegal orders” say the FBI has contacted them to begin scheduling interviews, signaling a possible inquiry into the matter.

It would mark the 2nd investigation tied to the video, coming a day after the #Pentagon said it was reviewing Sen #MarkKelly (D-AZ) over potential violations of #MilitaryLaw (also bullshit). The #FBI & Pentagon actions come after #Trump accused the lawmakers of sedition “punishable by DEATH” in a social media post.

The Pentagon has threatened to recall U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly, a retired Navy captain, to active duty status to prosecute him after what it described as seditious behavior by the former astronaut and decorated veteran. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/11/25/world/politics/pentagon-senator-mark-kelly-navy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #pentagon #markkelly #us #donaldtrump #republicans #democrats
