Some thankless government employee is trying to talk Trump out of commiting this series of war crimes right as we speak.
I wonder if Iran forsaw that. They've been doing the tit-for-tat thing pretty well so far.
What kind of mass scale civilian casualty war crimes could they retaliate with?
What was said was, you are advocating war crimes. There is a reason why even when these are committed, they are not communicated in this way, and there's a pretense of noble action. You don't want to live in a world where destruction of power plants, reducing societies to loosely connected tribes etc. is casually talked about. You are not that safe.
