Oh look, 43 war criminals, Jimmy Carter, and Abraham Lincoln
Lincoln was absofuckinglutely a war criminal. Now did his victims deserve it? Listen if anyone deserves war crimes it’s the confederacy. But yeah definitely did war crimes. Sherman’s march to the sea was the most based war crime there ever was.
It's not a war crime if it's against the British Empire.
Please amend "Slave Owners" to your list, ty.
Ya during those wars those presidents were totally nice to the native Americans
It's not a war crime if you don't declare war first taps wig
Hey! Don’t forget about East Timor!
Did Theodore Roosevelt do any war crimes? Like maybe with the rough riders? But Im drawing blanks.
The whole panana thing was p sketchy but since it wasn't technically an American war it isn't a war crime.
Also war crimes weren't really "invented" until Nuremberg so in some sense no one committed war crimes until then. Somewhat more awkwardly the nazis tried at Nuremberg were being judged by laws that weren't really codified until after they had committed them.
Imo war crimes isn't really a good way of phrasing it bc unlike a nations legal code which is usually fairly black and white, war crimes are international and therefore a lot more subject to politics. I'm glad they were punished but I wish it hadn't been execution in so many cases, and it has been called something like "acts unbecoming of a human". Something nasty but definitely not related to the legal system.
Weird way to say 45 war criminals
