If you're not special forces then there's no problem, you won't be doing any real fighting.

If you are special forces, at worst you'll be calling in airstrikes for our new (or not-so-new) buddies in Iraq/Syria.

According to this faithless delegates aren't possible without a rule change, and changing the rules would be a pretty big tipoff.

Relevant section

quote:

The Republican National Committee has a bylaw that preempts the impact of faithless delegates. Rule 16(a)(2) of the party’s convention rulebook states that “the Secretary of the Convention shall faithfully announce and record each delegate’s vote in accordance with the delegate’s obligation under these rules, state law or party law” (emphasis mine). Because a faithless delegate is by definition breaking the rules, this means their rogue vote won’t count. The tally will instead show that they voted for the candidate they were required to vote for — even though they didn’t — and things will proceed as normal.

They couldn't attack him. What were they going to say - illegals aren't here to steal your jobs, that's just fear mongering! Muslims aren't plotting to destroy America with Sharia law, that's ludicrous!

They could and should have held their fire and the points along the chain of command that allowed the hospital to get hit should be disciplined.

That's still leagues away from deliberately targeting families as a policy (which people would presumably be rewarded for following,) Kim Jong Oiled-and-Ready.

Drones have killed a relatively small number of civilians throughout its operative history, in exchange for eliminating key elements of Al-Qaeda at little to no risk to American lives. Should we abolish drones, we would be using airstrikes by F-16s or cruise missiles which would kill a far larger number of people in order to cut the head of ISIS.

Frankly, if you support Donald Trump, you should be cheering that the hospital was razed in case there were any Muslims in there, not trying to concern troll the rest of us about it. It is his stated intention to commit more war crimes.

Dronechat notwithstanding, every open liberal I know in meatspace who opined on the topic was, at worst, "either the targeting protocols need to be reformed, or they worked fine and this decision was goddamn awful". I, btw, was one of those worst. :v:

Relatedly: what do you think President Trump's decision about a hospital treating Taliban aligned fighters would be in the same circumstance? Do you think it would be more restrained?
