    Collateral damage is and has always been a very unfortunate consequence of war... it's not a war crime.


    Targeting and killing relatives of enemy combatants and torturing enemy combatants are war crimes per International Law and the Geneva Convention.

    Obviously I don't support that because it's insane, but no, flying drones into other countries without permission, killing terrorists along with civilians is a war crime.

    If another country did that to us, we'd probably nuke them. Both parties have a hawkish foreign policy, and both sanders and trump are improvements over their respective parties.

    Trump is the only republican candidate talking about tax increases. He's the only republican candidate shi--ing on the Iraq war besides Rand Paul. Yes Swizz. He begrudgingly said he supported it in its earliest stage, and quickly turned against it, faster than both parties. He's actually moderate on a lot of issues that the republicans have to change on. That's why voting for him is a protest vote. Again, everyone agrees he's a protest vote. Get it through your head.

    So, you are supporting an insane candidate. Our drone strikes are done with the permission of that country's supreme leader.


    Trump said he would use nukes against ISIS.. that's a drone skrike with 100,000s of civilian deaths.

    He's not going to use nukes. He said "he won't rule anything out" because that's been his criticism of the Obama administration. He said that anyone fighting their enemy should not openly say what they will rule out for tactical reasons. He's not wrong.

    To you're point about drones, you are wrong. There have been a few cases where permission was granted. Most without permission. And again, we would never allow someone to carry out such an act on us.

    Both parties have been guilty of war crimes. JFK, Nixon, both Bushs, Reagan, Clinton, Obama etc. Maybe Carter is the only exception.

    I bet you'd be the guy to volunteer to be shot on 5th Avenue by Trump to prove that his cultists would still support him.



    And all the drone strikes our approved by the countries they are carried out in. Pakistan denied this at first and wikileaks proved they were lying.

    Maybe in the case of Pakistan. And there is also no due process. Another ethical failing. And a picture with Trump or Bernie would actually be legendary.

    Every country gives us permission. It's legal.

    And once again you are going to vote for a candidate that said he was going to commit War Crimes.

    He plans on using our nuclear weapons and he wants current non-nuclear nations to become nuclear armed.


    I'm pretty sure every sane person in the world can take a nuclear holocaust off the table when they are dealing with a terror group.

    Why do you keep fear mongering? There won't be a nuclear holocaust lmao and for the millionth time, both parties have had leaders that commit war crimes, and Hillary will continue that tradition.

    Fear mongering is stating what your candidate has said in context?

    What do you think is going to happen in the Korea's when we stop our viglence against nuclear armed North Korea while South Korea developes it's own nuclear weapon capability?




    I think it's funny how you're like relax errbody commits war crimes, brah!


    But Hillary had her own email account!!!!

    Trump on Iraq war circa january 2003 (7 weeks before war), interview with Neil Cavuto

    “Well, he has either got to do something or not do something, perhaps, because perhaps shouldn’t be doing it yet and perhaps we should be waiting for the United Nations, you know. He’s under a lot of pressure. I think he’s doing a very good job. But, of course, if you look at the polls, a lot of people are getting a little tired. I think the Iraqi situation is a problem. And I think the economy is a much bigger problem as far as the president is concerned.”

    but then in that howard stern interview circa 2002 he says something like "I guess so" in regards to the war https://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/in-2002-donald-trump-said-he-supported-invading-iraq-on-the

    Wow, so forceful..."he has either got to do something or not do something" :'(

    That's the exact type of word salad Trump always gives us when he doesn't want to be pinned down on something. But his only DEFINITIVE statement pre-Iraq War was in support; he wasn't a vocal critic until after things went south. Which isn't necessarily a disqualifier - but why does he keep lying about it, and why do people like you keep believing his lies?
