Rand Paul most verklempt.
Tell me that the cartels own your government without telling me that the cartels own your government.
Last time I checked, these pirates driving boats of no nation were being destroyed on the high seas, not in Mexican territorial waters.

The U.S. carried out strikes on four drug-smuggling ships in the Eastern Pacific, killing 14 people

We need to declare war on the countries allowing these boats.
If this is a crime then who or what country is the plaintiff?
But they're providing support operations.
Trump keep a lid this and tell us when all the trash has been taken out. No one needs know what goes on out in the middle of nowhere. Porpoises are terrible witnesses.
"We want all international treaties to be respected," she added.
Is there an international treaty about not smuggling drugs, not bypassing a country's Customs inspections?
Please be very specific.
Thank you.
It’s easier to beg forgivenes than to ask for permission and be turned down!
They’re drug cartels and dealers...I’m sorry but if you’re worried about scum who deliberately make money from selling drugs that detroy and kill, then you are part of the bigger problem.
Even in wartime, you pick up enemy sailors from sunken ships ... if possible.
LOL! Rand Paul, RandFan, and Assie now have non-Venezuelan drug subs and boats bombed, which shows more consistency, they would say.
They were knocking our work against Venezuela, which is a “tiny” producer.
I’m thinking the Rands and Assies will give Trump a “Thumbs Up,” now.
14 less murdering rapists.
I haven’t seen anything on this subject in a long time. Years ago, there was an article on how the cartels got their drugs transported by sea. The cartels didn’t have their own seamen. They used different incentives to get regular fishermen and sailors to crew the boats. Sometimes they’d kidnap their families. Sometimes they’d simply pay them a couple of thousand dollars. Sometimes they’d “impress” (enslave) them. The point of the article was, at least at that time, the cartel didn’t employ their own people to crew the subs or the boats. The crews ranged from essentially slaves to coerced men, to paid “contractors.”
My point is, the loss of the drugs may hurt the cartel, but the cost of those drugs compared to the price they bring is very low. Perhaps one dollar of cost for a thousand dollars gained at market. But the cartels are not losing cartel members when the boats are blown up. It’s hard to evaluate the morality of blowing up the boats without knowing the details, which may differ boat to boat. I’m thinking that by not knowing these details there may be a potential hidden public relations disaster when the details come out. It might be that the people we blew up were doing it to save their families from being murdered.
While most on this medium might not care, it’s not unknown for the best government intention to be undone by bad press. (Actually, there’s no other kind.)
The beauty of naval warfare is there are no witnesses or innocent civilians to get in the way. Just do this and keep it SECRET.
Winning!
His liberdopian cult is meshuggah over the interruption in their supply and shmeering their shmutter all over FR like a bunch of shmendriks.
I was agreeing with you. There is no crime killing pirates which are nautical terrorists. There is no plaintiff.
