Across Iran and the Caribbean, Trump and his lickspittles delight in killing as if people were expendable scenery, not human beings with loved ones and families. Meanwhile, they ignore the death and destruction their fellow psychopath, Putin, rains down on Ukraine every night.

India and America invite Iran to send an UNARMED ship to the Indian Ocean to participate in military exercises, and Trump and Whiskey Pete decided it would be fun to blow it out of the water, leaving over 100 sailors miles from shore, desperate for a rescue. Instead of saving them, as international law requires, we simply left them to drown.

Whiskey Pete called it "quiet death." In fact, there was a lot of screaming and sobbing, although the bombers couldn't hear it from 20,000 feet any more than Hegseth could in his drunken haze.

Just like they blew up a boat in the Caribbean and then, when two fishermen survived clinging to a piece of debris and were desperately waving for help, came back with an illegally unmarked plane and blew them into bits of blood and gristle. Another clear violation of international and American law.

And then they bombed a girl's school in Iran, killing at least 160 children, and then lied about it while also humble-bragging that "people will die" in their war of choice. As Stephen Nosferatu Miller gleefully announced after the little girls were slaughtered:

"What you're seeing right now ... is a military under President Trump's leadership that is not fighting politically correct. That isn't fighting with its hands tied behind its back."
And Hegseth bragged:
"No stupid rules of engagement, no nation-building quagmire, no democracy-building exercise, no politically-correct wars."
When he was asked about the six American soldiers who were killed because Putin is helping Iran target Americans in the region, his reply was disgusting:
"When a few drones get through or tragic things happen, it's front-page news. I get it. The press only wants to make the president look bad."
These are the ghouls who were delighted " thrilled " when masked ICE thugs shot Renee Good in the face and Alex Pretti in the back; they then went on TV, giddy, and smeared them to the world. And killed dozens of people so far this year in their concentration camps while delighting in tearing children from their parents.

Power also sans any brains; their incompetence is a double-edged sword, however.
