Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is facing scrutiny for a double-tap strike in the Caribbean that resulted in the death of survivors from an initial boat attack.

The attacks, which have resulted in at least 83 civilian deaths, are considered extrajudicial killings, as the targets are suspected drug traffickers. Following the September 2 strike, a government source claimed Hegseth was turning military personnel into “murderers” while the Former JAGs Working Group condemned the actions as war crimes.

It seems the situation has escalated quickly, with the White House confirming Hegseth’s involvement in the decision to strike a boat suspected of carrying drugs. This revelation is significant, especially considering the allegations of war crimes and the murky legal waters surrounding the incident.
The legal implications here are substantial. Remember, the core of the problem stems from the definition of a “clearly illegal order.” The Department of Defense’s own Law of War Manual explicitly states that firing upon the shipwrecked is a textbook example of such an order.… Continue reading
