Which will get thousands, if not tens of thousands, KILLED.

Spreading our forces too thin all over the world is NEVER good. This isn't even the same as WWII when patriotic fever was high.

Donald Trump is the MOST REVILED person in the world.

While I can sympathize with the grunts not being law students, "I was just following orders" is not a defense for war crimes. And there is zero excuse for senior commanders. I do not, cannot, and will not support soldiers engaging in war crimes.
