120525 Tell Congress: Investigate Caribbean Killings
U.S. military commanders ordered a follow-up strike to kill survivors in the water—a deliberate execution that violates the laws of war and every moral principle America claims to uphold.
This is a war crime. And it demands accountability.
What happened:
83+ people killed across 20+ strikes since September 2025
Military sources confirm commanders knew survivors were in the water when they ordered the follow-up attack
UN human rights experts call these "extrajudicial executions"
The UK stopped sharing intelligence, calling the strikes illegal
Sen. Angus King: "That's a stone-cold war crime. It's also murder."
The administration claims the boats carried drug traffickers—but has provided zero evidence. Even if true, killing survivors in international waters violates both U.S. and international law.
Retired Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt put it simply: "American servicemen don't kill noncombatants, they don't torture prisoners, they don't kill prisoners. That's taught in Day 2 of basic training."
This violates every principle America claims to stand for. Ordering the execution of defenseless survivors isn't law enforcement—it's a war crime that demands accountability.
